The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Edu Betta, asserted that the payment of N585.198 million for the vulnerable group adhered to proper due process.
The resolution of the purported financial corruption scandal within the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation remains uncertain, with the emergence of a document indicating that the minister allegedly disbursed the sum of N585,198,500.00 to a personal account.
A document that has circulated widely and bears Edu’s signature, addressed to the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation, details instructions from the Minister to disburse N585,198,500.00 is an individual named Oniyelu Bridget.
