Suspended Minister Betta Edu Arrives at EFCC Office

Dr. Betta Edu, the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, has arrived at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Headquarters.

She was invited by the EFCC for questioning regarding an alleged N585 million fraud in her ministry.

President Bola Tinubu suspended Edu on Monday following accusations of diverting humanitarian funds meant for grants to vulnerable groups in several states.

This development makes Edu the first minister to be suspended from office since the swearing-in of the Federal Executive Council in August of the previous year.
