The House of Representatives on Tuesday urged the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management, Sadiya Umar Farouq, to resign from the position if she has been overwhelmed by the job.
This followed the minister’s repeated failure to appear before the House committees to defend the ministry’s 2023 budget proposal.
The Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriation, Muktar Betara, made the call during a hearing to investigate the alleged insertion of N206 billion in the ministry’s 2023 budget.
