Betta Edu, the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, is refuting claims that N30 billion recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is connected to her.
This comes amidst ongoing investigations into alleged financial irregularities within the ministry during her tenure.
The EFCC announced the recovery of N30 billion in March 2024, stating it was linked to their probe into the ministry. However, Ms. Edu’s lawyer, Chikaosolu Ojukwu, issued a letter denying any association between his client and the recovered funds.
