According to a recent report, the Presidency has called for restraint and patience from Nigerians regarding the ongoing investigation into the alleged misappropriation of N585m by the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management, Dr. Betta Edu.
The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, disclosed that President Bola Tinubu had approved the release of N3bn to verify the National Social Register under the former administration of Muhammadu Buhari.
The social register was created for cash transfers and other social investment programs under Buhari.
The EFCC has been directed to investigate the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, and Nigerians are urged to exercise patience until the investigation is completed.
