$100m women fund: Nigeria threatens to sue UN, others over misuse of World Bank Project

The Federal Government has raised concern over the misuse of $100 million (approximately N103 billion), earmarked for a World Bank sponsored project meant to bring in women, encourage them in business, empower them, particularly in the field of Agriculture and give them little capital as well as teach them how to save.

The government also said that very few women were gathered and were given stipends ranging from N30,000 to N60,000 adding that rather than use modern instruments for their harvested farm produce, they were still using olden days items.
