The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) said on Thursday the former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development, Sadiya Umar-Farouq, did not shun its invitation contrary to claims in the media.
The EFCC Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, who spoke with journalists on Thursday in Abuja, said the former minister sent a letter that she could not honour the invitation due to health challenges.
Last week, the commission invited Umar-Farouk over an alleged N37 billion fraud in the ministry.
