Betta Edu lands in EFCC Custody Over N585m Scandal
Following her suspension by President Bola Tinubu on Monday, the EFCC summoned Edu to its headquarters in Jabi, Abuja.
Betta Edu, the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, is currently in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Following her suspension by President Bola Tinubu on Monday, the EFCC summoned Edu to its headquarters in Jabi, Abuja.
The anti-graft agency recommended her suspension to facilitate the ongoing investigation into the alleged N585 million fraud within her ministry.
President Tinubu ordered the investigation and withdrew Edu’s access pass to the Aso Villa. Edu’s departure from the State House, after being denied access, was captured in a video.
The investigation centers on a leaked document revealing a payment of N585,189,500.00 into a private account, which Edu’s media aide claims followed due process. Despite Edu’s denial of the allegations, Tinubu has called for a thorough investigation, vowing decisive punishment for any breaches.
