Ms. Oduah is being accused of falsely claiming to have a Master's Degree in Business Administration from a U.S. college, because the college says it never offered that course.
Attempts by Daily Trust to speak with the minister's office on Tuesday failed as her aides did not answer calls or respond to text messages.
Yesterday, a spokesman for aviation parastatals, Mr. Yakubu Dati, who also speaks for the minister, told the BBC Hausa radio that they have decided not to respond to the accusations against Ms. Oduah.
He did not give reasons for that.
Online portal, Sahara Reporters, on Monday quoted authorities at St. Paul's College, where Ms. Oduah claimed she studied for Bachelor's and Master's Degrees, as saying they did not award an MBA at any time as the university does not even have a graduate school or programme.
On Tuesday, Premium Times said it observed an attempt by the minister's aides to revise her profiles on the web to clean up any reference to St. Paul's College in her bios.
Oduah had recently been enmeshed in the bulletproof cars purchase scandal, over which the House of Representatives has demanded her sack.
She told Daily Trust over a week ago that the armoured cars were leased and not purchased.
