Prime minister denies affiliation to ‘Saara Airlines’

The Office of the Prime Minister has issued a statement to dismiss allegations that prime minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila is affiliated to a certain ‘Saara Airlines’ account on Facebook.

“The Office of the Prime Minister has noted with great concern the existence of a Facebook page under the name ‘Saara Airlines’ that bears the pictures of the honourable prime minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila, suggesting the prime minister owns an airline under the above-mentioned name,” the statement issued on Thursday reads.

The statement further affirms that Kuugongelwa-Amadhila and her office are not associated with this airline.
