Olumide Ohunayo, Assistant Secretary General of the Aviation Safety Roundtable Initiative, has called for former Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun to address the ongoing Chinese firm controversy with the Department of State Services (DSS) rather than making public statements online.

Ohunayo criticized the poorly drafted agreement between Zhongshang Fucheng Industrial Investment Ltd and the Ogun State government, arguing that it reflects negatively on Nigeria’s legal system and its ability to honor agreements. He suggested that the Chinese firm’s reluctance to seek legal recourse in Nigeria stems from concerns about impartiality and the potential difficulty in enforcing any judgment.

In an interview with News Central, Ohunayo emphasized the broader implications of such issues, noting the detrimental impact on investor confidence and the need for robust legal frameworks. He highlighted that similar problems plague the aviation sector, underlining the importance of upholding agreements and enhancing the independence of the judiciary.

Ohunayo concluded by stressing the necessity of consulting experienced legal professionals to ensure that agreements are properly drafted and legally binding, whether they involve domestic or international parties.
