Chairman of the House Committee on Public Assets, Ademorin Kuye, said this at the investigative hearing on the sale of the two helicopters in Acting Rector, NCAT, Shakespeare Imalighwe, said though he was the deputy rector of the college at the time the helicopters were sold, he was not part of the team/committee that facilitated the sales.

This, according to him, was in respect of approval of Federal Executive Council and the Ministry of Aviation as well as newspaper publication advertising the intention to sell the helicopters. The lawmakers argued that it was wrong for NCAT to have used an unlicensed auctioneer to sell the helicopters.
