The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu, for questioning over an alleged N585 million scandal in the ministry.
Edu’s invitation came shortly after President Bola Tinubu approved her immediate suspension over an alleged plan to disburse N585.2 million meant for vulnerable groups in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Ogun, and Lagos States into a private account.
A source in the commission confirmed the development to journalists on Monday.
