Tinubu's Administration Puts 20-Year-Old Nigerian Presidential Jet Up for Sale in Switzerland Amid Controversy

Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo's administration purchased a Boeing 737-700 Business Jet in 2005, which is now being prepared for sale in Switzerland by Bola Tinubu's administration. The jet, with a luxurious interior featuring advanced amenities, is being replaced by a newly acquired Airbus A330.

The decision to sell the jet has raised concerns over government spending and transparency, especially as the purchase of the Airbus A330 was controversial due to its high cost. The aircraft's maintenance costs and safety risks have also been highlighted, with reports of malfunctions during trips prompting parliamentary concerns.
