N2.5 billion Fraud: Stella Oduah Threatens Legal Action against SaharaReporters

Former Minister of Aviation, Prin­cess Stella Oduah currently a senator, has vowed to take le­gal action against Sa­hara Reporters over an alleged malicious publication linking her with an alleged N2.5 billion fraud.

The senator said that the planned court ac­tion has become nec­essary so as to check­mate the excesses of the medium and put it back on the right track of journalism in the interest of this country and those wishing to serve in govern­ment.

It will be recalled that Oduah, repre­senting Anambra North Senatorial District of Anambra State, was linked to an alleged malicious and fictitious fraud by the online tabloid, that a non-existing source in the Economic Fi­nancial Crimes Com­mission (EFCC) had uncovered the sum of N2.5 Billion Naira in an account opened in the name of an un-named housemaid of the senator.
