The Public Relations Officer of NCS, Joseph Attah, disclosed this in Abuja at a media briefing to update the public on the ongoing audit of privately-owned aircraft operating in Nigeria.

The NSC, last month, had directed all private aircraft owners in the country to present relevant importation clearance documents to the agency for verification.

Attah said, “Within two weeks into the 30 days verification period, only six owners of private aircraft have responded to the invitation, necessitating this update and reminder to those who have not responded, to do so in order to avoid possible detention of their aircraft.

“We learnt some are coming today or tomorrow for verification. We also know that some brought their private jets under a temporary import certificate, which has expired and not renewed. These are infractions,” he said.

“At the end of the verification, some of the things we want to expose will come to light. We will make our findings known on July 6 after the expiration of the 30-day grace window.

“Those in default risk detention of their aircraft as nobody is above the law,” he added.
