According to her, some metal objects were found in the vehicle which does not look like the conventional bullet.
“The objects will be subjected to ballistic test,” she said.
According to her, investigation into the incident has begun.
Also, confirming the shooting, Special Adviser to the minister, Mr Joe Obi, said that the attack took place at the Ministers’ Hill, Maitama in the FCT.
“Fortunately, the minister was not in the car at the time the attack took place.
“An official report has been made to the police and the police are currently investigating it, ” Obi said.
It can be recalled that Ms Stella Oduah, remains under immesnse presuure over her role in the purchase of two N255m luxury cars with many Nigerians calling for her sack and prosecution. The minister in her defense cited "Protection" as the basis for acquiring the N225m bullet-proof cars, and not for luxury.

ReplyDeletei love dis country cal ninja
ReplyDeleteErrand boys attacked on Friday, only remembering on Monday in the evening. Is this the Nigeria we want?
ReplyDeleteIn Nigeria, some people like drivers has no life, when there is a fictional shot at a vehicle, the assumed target is the Oga at the top. If the same vehicle hits somebody, the Oga must not be blamed. Were the police on recess only to reconvene on Monday? Let's wait for a presidential committee to investigate.
ReplyDeleteIt is not a strange development in Nija, it just to cover up her misdeed. In developed world she will either be in jail or hell.
ReplyDeleteGod will deliver us from this viper
Trying to cook up story to justify her wrong doing
ReplyDeleteI hope the attackers were not hired for some melodrama in order to justify her need for bullet-proof convoy, the same way the protesters some weeks ago were rented.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I congratulate our amiable minister for escaping!
Cheers.
Not only justify but to attract sympthy. Of all places its in abj its in maitama that d car was shot at. If a gun man can shoot in maitama ang get away with it den no place in naija I s safe not even aso rock. Duncan 1
ReplyDeleteThis is obviously outrageous. Politicians should stop taking us as fools and some how I don't blame them because Nigerians have chosen that role for themselves. This is just a decoy to cover up the initial blunder.. she must bear the weight of the law

ReplyDeleteHmmmm Naija politicians. Ask Oduah who dunnit. Justification of armoured car part 2 scene 1. Who is after a failed minister that turned our airport to a world class after sinking billions of naira in it yet d demons still allow d roofs to leak while raining. Failed state, failed minister failed government with no ball to fight corruption.
ReplyDeleteLol. I am laughing in chinese. #are u are# in zebrudaya's voice. This woman is not smart at all. What kind of fake and arranged shooting is this. The driver should have been killed to prove a point that this is real. Next time madam Stella, drive to Borno, strong hold of Boko Haram, your life will never be the same again. Now run along and get your butt back to work and stop this fake breakdance. Iranu.
DeleteSet up ………!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why it took 67 hrs 30 minutes to report to the police.
ReplyDeleteHMMM?
Reporting after 67hours was deliberate to enable them clean up the arrangee in house trail. You can only fool yourself. God will weed out all those that make us look ridiculous in the eyes of other nations
ReplyDeletenolly wood movie....the lies of cover ups

ReplyDeleteIt happened on friday, reported on Monday. No report of gunshots around the area through out weekend. Come on police, we are too civilized for such cheap info.
ReplyDeleteNaija has first class in corruption, embezelment, terrorist. Forgery, May God help us
ReplyDeleteGod will save us in this country, it's just story they know what they are doing.
ReplyDeletePolice are tools in the hand of the politicians. How could you come out with this report of attack over a woman accused of wastage of tax payer's money too funny birds of the same feathers. .....
ReplyDeleteBanana set up in banana republic. It is now they want to assissinate her so as to justify her bullet proof car! If you do good nobody will be after your life. How my God , this country needs deliverance ooooooo
ReplyDeletewhy all this playacting by politicals. if she really want to act, she should have risked being in the car. Then Nigerians will be convinced. Bad movie director.
ReplyDeleteCool story shaa.... reminds me of James Bond. Good acting really.
ReplyDeleteI smell bullsh..! Na nollywood movie? Chai. Dem neva attempt assasination on Dizieani na Stella! Mscheeeew? Who is Stella in the scheme of things?
ReplyDeleteMadam Oduah you are a demon trying to justify your illegality.
ReplyDeleteThis woman is guilty has charged.
ReplyDeleteAn assassination attempt on Friday. Reported on Monday. This woman really thinks Nigerians are stupid. Is this a justification for stealing N255m?
ReplyDeleteok stella has now become a film director, abi? Now we are waiting for season 2 pls.
ReplyDeleteWho would want Stella Oduah dead? Stop fooling yourselves! If I were her, I would honourably bow out. Let's face our daily bread and forget this issue, because nothing we expect would come out of it. Where are the ones before her? PDP we hail thee!
ReplyDeleteFor her own good she should stay away from press limelight and like Farouk her case will be relegated to beer parlour debate. Nigeria we hail thee- Rex
ReplyDeleteMinister Oduah, you are lucky that your assailants or your hired actors to stage this episode of your travail are not like sergent Barnabars and Rogers of Al-Mustapha.
ReplyDeleteYou cannot fool us. It will be of more honour for you to just resign and face the consequencies of your actions and greed instaead of all these cover up attempts. It would have been better if this has come up earlier before the purchase of those vehicles. Oh! minister, what a miscalculation?
Dear minister, thou shall not cover thy sins so that thou may prospereth. Confess! Confess!! Confess!!! Acknowledge thy misdeeds and if possible expose others, so that you may be free and upright.. Think about it.
Compare what would have happened in another countries where there is law and people obey it. Not only that people that have shame and respect for their family honour would have back out hourably.
ReplyDeleteIs it after she looted Aviation money people remember to attack her? Habaa!!!!. We are not fools!!!!
i love Nigeria
ReplyDeleteFor the adhoc commentators on here still insinuating whether Nigerians are stoooopid, has that not always been a glaring fact? We are only best at grumblin & cussing on blog sites which the mere evil mortals in government are aware of & already used to. Shouldnt there hav been a change of strategy since? We shall continue to get what we deserve in this undesireable elements in government until we decide to act! Finito!!!
ReplyDeleteYogi d fuckin Bear....

Madam you are now pissing me off, since you want attack you will get one and you wont escape it, which kind rubbish be this? We are not fools let lying dogs sleep abeg, if you have a case answer it, leave acting for those in Nollywood.
ReplyDeleteHey Bitch! You better shut your trap 'cos we all know your game plan. Don't take us for fools ok? Mumu Presido! Are you part of this cheap Nollywood shit? I won't be surprised if you are part of it, because recent happenings in the country shows you aren't smart.
ReplyDeleteThe Nigeria Police IG, Oduah Stella and whoever actor is involved in this stage play are the biggest fool of this millenium! Chai!!! What do you take Nigerians for??? Anyway, keep sowing, your children and even children's children will reap the fruits of your misdeeds! As for Stella, you've actually predicted how your death will eventually come - so get ready! If you do good, why scared of assasination? Why would people even want to assisinate you? When the evil doers tried to eliminate Dora, a wonderful and upright woman, they never succeded, eventhough a bullet pierced her headgear. As for you Stella, you already have a space in the pit of HELL!
ReplyDeleteU know, we can all air our views & still not use swear words like bitch, bastard etc like some of us use here. It's so uncouth & immature. I believe we are all adults ( we shld all be at least 18 yrs). Such use of words are highly unacceptable on media like this. It doesn't show maturity one bit. As leaders of tomorrow, if we can't be mature in our deeds & words, no body will take us seriously. Don't think they don't read this. Pls mind your language.
ReplyDeleteThe best actress of the year of 2013!!!, I hereby present to you "miss" ODUAH. I dey laugh oooooooooo. Congratulations.
ReplyDeletePDP and things are just taken Nigerians for fool, imagine 16 greater than 19, 5 greater than 27, sacrificed her candidate for another party, now is drama. People Deceiving People.
ReplyDeleteTell d stories to d Birds...nonsense..pls search for more stories..
ReplyDeleteI agree that it was just planned just the way Kudrat Abiola`s or Alex Ibru`s cases were just planned . Wicked souls . All of you can say whatever you like but one thing is for sure ,non of you is God . How many of you have ever asked why the hotel being built at the opposite MMA2 has not been finished for years? You cannot ask any question because the OLE handling it is a Yoruba man, thieves . You want to kill the woman because she is uncovering the avenues the criminal in the guise of a lawyer is stealing aviation money . What is 255m naira to that woman? Aborishade and Fan-Kayode ended up accusing each other of over 22bn of aviation fund and you feel everybody is like that .
ReplyDeleteThis technical theater would have been bought hook line and sinker by Nigerians but the the technical director failed to factor the reaction of we Nigerians that even Oyinbo people do not under estimate!
