The Bilateral Air Services Agreement is supposed to be signed by Nigeria's Minister of Aviation Stella Oduah didnt signed it. President Jonathan asked the Minister of State I, Foreign Affairs, Prof. Viola Onwuliri, to sign the agreement on behalf of the Federal Government. (Pictured above).
Thing is, BASA has nothing to do with the Foreign Affairs Ministry. Stella Oduah was present at the signing...but she sat with other Nigerian delegates as an observer.
While explaining why she joined Pres. Jonathan's delegation to Israel last week, her special adviser on media, Mr. Joe Obi, said it was to sign the BASA. President Jonathan decided at the last minute to keep her from signing on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria. See a picture of Stella Oduah at the BASA.
