she is gone. The someone/ someone people want her position. All the person/people needs to do is compromise close aids to give wrong advice which will be implemented. once it is done, then the aids take it to the media as anonymous. it's an old game sadly she fell for it. The people who master minded it will soon take the ministry for their people
If you are right, other Ministers should have a confidant of his or her tribe among senior staff of his or her ministry. I suspect her aid who defended her that transfering of government money to private account is right.

Good one, it's good for the optics. Be seen to be 'fighting corruption'.

Exactly it's just optics.

The real looting is going on in the finance, power, maritime ,oil etc sectors.

Poor Betta is just a sacrificial scapegoat.

The right decision considering the current circumstances. Like i have always said, the federal public service is not the private sector where the CEO can do as they like. The public service is governed by laws, rules, regulations and over one thousand extant circulars. People without public service knowledge who gets appointed as ministers and heads of agencies must be extremely careful and very cooperative with the civil servants they meet on ground or else, they will run into trouble quickly.

I like Betta Edu and really wished this did not happen to her but the serious violations observed from those approvals and the fraudulent intention behind the diversion of over N500m to a private account are too much to be ignored. I hope other newly appointed political office holders would learn from her mistake. Learn the rules before approving anything. When in doubt, seek and take the advice of the more experienced civil servants. If Betty had listened to the wise counsel of the Accountant General, she won't be in this mess.
Which experienced civil servants? Don't be surprised the civil servants are the conduit pipe used in siphoning public funds. I'm sure they were the one that sold that idea to her. Infact, EFCC should probe that woman whose account was used to receive the find. There's every tendency that woman's account was receiving public funds during buhari's tenure. The permanent secretary of that ministry ought to have been suspended too. The Minister cannot do anything without the connivance of the Permanent Secretary.

After the covid 19 palava she was involved in, she was still appointed as Minister!

Sack her now and let the other ministers know they can be easily disposed of if they are found wanting...something Buhari couldn't do!

Which covid 19 palava?

how does your screenshot answer my questions?

1. which court order did Emefiele ignore?

2. how was the issue finally resolved?

3. what happened to Emefiele and what did anybody ask Buhari to do to Emefiele?
Let me be more specific. I think I am speaking to an imb.
People protested, there were pressure from APC Gov and Northern Elders Forum against emefieles policy. Despite all this nothing was done by the president to proffer a solution to this problem.

despite a court order for him to make the process easy and efficient by allowing the use of old note along with very scarce new notes, since February2023 when emefiele implemented the currency change policy till after the emergence of president Tinubu, he blatantly refused and went ahead with is life excruciating policy.

It was eventually after the emergence of the new president that Emefiele partially considered the court order .
Even if you are deaf and dumb and oblivious of what was happening then, I am sure you are not blind. What does the below picture indicate. Protest were help indicating the excruciating effects emefieles policy was having on people, despite all this buhari did not do any thing

So the same pressure that did not help you with buhari cannot help you with Tinubu. He is simply doing it because it is the right thing to do.

Public position in Nigeria is near war oo especially if one is appointed into an office with 'goodies'. Her replacement will somehow tell those behind such wrong steps. she shouldn't have taken that decision but am shocked that the accountant general okayed her request

You can write so I am definitely sure, if it is at most a 4 word capacity range, you can also read. Read what I wrote again.

There you will find.
1. The court order emefiele Ignored.

2. How and when(bonus) the issue was resolved.

3. I am not obliged to answer what happened to emefiele( in what so ever context you mean it)

3ii) How the protests across the country was a demand for the President to stop the CBN governors policy of cash swap.

3iib)How the Nothern Elders Forum interview proved that indeed buhari was expected and demanded to stop emefiele but he simply refused and was.unwilling.

Again. the same pressure that did not help you with buhari cannot help you with Tinubu. He is simply doing it because it is the right thing to do.

This is commendable. I hope she's found innocent and returned to her office soon.
When you fight corruption, corruption will fight back.
Betta Edu only reported the illegal movement of N44B in her ministry.
That's her offence.

As expected.
The challenge for Tinubu now is keeping to this template because I am pretty sure he's going to be busy with scandals and corrupt deeds of his appointees as the weeks,months and years go by.
The question is:when the corrupt deed comes nearer home or cronies,will the same sledge hammer be used or he would formulate a new standard where just the broom will be used?
