Recall that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had suspended the Minister for requesting the accountant-general of the federation wire N585 million into a private account, a fund meant for the public to alleviate poverty in some states.

Edu had written the office of the accountant-general, demanding that N585 million earmarked to reduce poverty of vulnerable citizens in Akwa-Ibom, Cross-River, Lagos, and Ogun be paid into the UBA account — 2003682151— of one Oniyelu Bridget Mojisola.

In a statement on her Facebook page addressed to Npower beneficiaries, Betta Edu stated that she is committed to fighting corruption.

She said: “Dear Npower Beneficiaries, I want to assure you all to remain calm and steadfast amidst the recent accusations and suspension I am facing.
