Governing Board Of NHIS Suspends Usman Yusuf Indefinitely by Islie: 3:09pm On Oct 18, 2018
By Chinedu Asadu



The governing board of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) has suspended Usman Yusuf, executive secretary of the scheme, indefinitely.

Iyantu Ifene, chairman of the board, announced Yusuf’s suspension at a press conference in Abuja on Thursday.

Speaking to TheCable over the phone, Ifene said Yusuf was suspended over allegations of financial infractions levelled against him.

She also said the executive secretary had “refused” to carry out the board’s decisions on critical issues.

Isaac Adewole, minister of health, had suspended Yusuf last year but President Muhammadu Buhari reinstated him in February.

His reinstatement triggered criticisms but the federal government had said the development did not stop his probe by the anti-graft agencies.

When he resumed, Yusuf asked to Nigerians to disregard the “misinformation in the media”, saying no amount of smear campaigns would deter him from bringing healthcare to the people.

“It is corruption that is fighting us and we will fight them back,” he had said.

“People should not be distracted by what they hear in the media. In fact, when I came in as the NHIS Executive Secretary, I realised that we can help our people especially the poor to access health care services.

“We are working for the people in order to make sure that they get what they deserve. So, we will never be deterred by the antics of corrupt interests.”

The singular reason Buhari reinstated this man is simply because of his nepotic & clannish nature as the man is a Kastina indigene like himself.

Imagine the over whelming evidence against him yet the president restored him back to post while Prof.Isaac Adewole failed to resign in protest.Thunder fire any fool that talks about corruption fight in this useless government.

Whenever someone is suspended in any Federal Ministry, Department or Agency, DO NOT REJOICE YET!



Until BUHARI is notified and HE doesn't Reinstate Him, then you are free to REJOICE.

The funny thing about this APC led government is that the cabinet members, politicians, and federal appointees who are involved in corrupt practices are quick to respond that corruption is fighting back when the same people are caught in the very act of corruption undecided

What a stupid defence! angry

If you're in the health sector, you understand theres more to this issue. While Usman may not exactly be clean, the fact is he's being hounded by a corrupt clique.
Re: Governing Board Of NHIS Suspends Usman Yusuf Indefinitely by seborrhic: 4:13pm On Oct 18, 2018
This man literarily destroyed NHIS singlehandedly.
He was suspended by the Health minister due to his unrivalled corrupt tendencies in that agency,yet the corrupt dullard in Daura reinstated him,as he has done with many others,not alleged,but proven corrupt people.
Yet nitwits claim Buhari is not corrupt and still has integrity and to make matters worse,some still want to vote for him.It shall not be well with such people in this and the afterlife.

This is the omugo who bragged that he was bullet proof because the dullard is his uncle. He was busy awarding contracts to himself and his cronies with impunity and the dullard was turning a blind eye. That same dullard is now giving his equally stupid nephew a cosmetic sack. He will be reinstated if the dullard is reelected in 2019. If you vote for the dullard this will be your fate:
