A youth group under the aegis of Igbo Progressive Union stormed the  Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu on Saturday morning to protest against calls for the removal of Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah. They said youths especially in the South East are prepared to do everything possible to protect Mrs Oduah.
 
The protesters including young men and women carried placards with different inscriptions accusing some unnamed politicians of being behind the calls for the removal of the minister insisting that the intention of the cabal was to stop the minister from going ahead with her transformation agenda in the aviation sector.

They said the aviation minister is innocent of the scandal against her as the purchase of the two armoured BMW vehicles the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) allegedly bought for her is in the best interest of the Aviation Sector.

According to them, some highly placed individuals especially her political detractors are the master minders of this evil seed as they are all out to tarnish the image and pedigree of the Minister.

There is the tendency that the power of protest is moving into oblivion in Nigeria.
