Here are the key points regarding the six charges against Sirika, the former Minister of Aviation.
Former Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika and his daughter Fatima appeared in court in Abuja on Thursday to face charges related to the failed Nigerian Air project. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has accused them, along with two others, of multiple counts of fraud.
According to the EFCC, Sirika used his position as minister to favor certain companies in awarding contracts, including Tianaero Nigeria Limited and Al Buraq Global Investment Ltd, which are linked to his associates and family members. The charges allege that Sirika and his daughter, along with their associates, unlawfully benefited from these contracts.
Despite the charges, Sirika has pleaded not guilty to the allegations.
