Naira Marley accused of impersonating Minister Fashola [Pictures]

Nigerian singer Azzez Fashola, who is popularly known as Naira Marley, might just be in some serious troubles as he has been accused of impersonating Works minister, Babatunde Fashola.

In a new dimension to his COVID-19 rule-breaking concert in Abuja on Saturday, the owners of Executive Jet, the charter flight that took him and crew to Abuja from Lagos have claimed that Marley and crew deceived them by putting Babatunde Fashola on the manifest.

In a letter of apology to Hadi Sirika, Minister of Aviation, the chairman and CEO of Executive Jets Services claimed that he approved the flight when he saw ‘Babatunde Fashola’ on the manifest sent to him.

According to him, he thought it was the minister, who was also a former governor of Lagos.

“We are very sorry for this mistake and we promise that this would not happen again”, he pleads.

Sirika had earlier announced the suspension of the operations of the airline on Monday after it was found that Executive Jets flew the singer to Abuja.

The concert held at Jabi Lake Mall has earned the mall a two-week closure on the orders of an Abuja magistrate.
