I hope FCCPC doesn't become like Nafdac after the exit of Dora Akunyili? Irekera did marvellously well

U09ce:
FCCPC is a neonate agency, created just about 2 years ago. Despite that, Irukera has managed to project the agency into good limelight. He spearheaded the regulation of loan apps. Me thinks he should have been allowed to serve out his tenure, unless he is found culpable of a crime

DaddyJapan:
I am inclined to agree. Irukera has spearheaded a number of essential reforms in the consumer protection sector.

stepaside1:
These 2 gentlemen are arguably amongst the top 10 competent persons holding public jobs in this country. What have they done to deserve sack? Irukera as federal consumer protection boss recently saw to British American Tobacco paying that huge fine. Okoh on the other hand has been doing some good privatisation work. What on earth are their crimes??

Omihanifa:
Babatunde irukera nah correct man o

Foolish Black Monkey, Read, read, read... Don't just follow conspiracy theories.

Things typically get blown on the moon by one of two different astronomical forces: solar wind and the impact of space debris. Solar wind is a phenomenon of the Sun's monstrous power to force objects away from it: simple particles expelled from the Sun achieve such high speed that their impact can be felt throughout the solar system (although it is not severe here on Earth where our atmosphere and magnetic rings protect us). This can move dust about on the moon, though it is not as powerful as strong winds on Earth. Another factor is the constant impact of space debris, from major meteors to simple space dust, all of which cause geological movement on the moon's surface. The moon's craters are all a result of impacts from space debris on a very large scale, perfectly preserved because little else disturbs these craters.

Betta edu Don enter one chance... Be like say she offend people for humanitarian ministry... What she was suspended for... Na small mistake oh

Pravedk:
The moment I saw the news I know she is a goner.

If you know Tinubu well you'd know that he'll use her to set an example.

Whether for the glam or he meant it is another thing.

I'm sure the woman didn't make use of seasoned civil servants. They will tell her writing to the AGF in that instance is a wrong move.

However two things are clear:
1. She blew the cover of the social investment hajiya under her that stole 44Billion, the hajiya or her people in turn blew her nyash.

A loss loss for two thieves.

2. Beta Edu is probably the kind of oga that steals and act as if he/she is the cleanest- those types civil servants will deal with. If you a thieving minister, eat, let the civil servants under you eat.

You never know how those officers can secure files very well if they are carried along in the stealing. Small investigation and fire will burn the whole office. No try a well oiled civil servant.


For those of you that are thinking why I'm i talking as of it's ok to steal in Govt.

Let me kindly remind you that Nigeria is a crime scene

I dedicate shegiya banza by Muhammadu Buhari to her. Great jam, make she use the lyrics hold body

descarado:
Only u noticed the trend.
They will use these ladies and still betray them.
The only person they couldn't get was ngozi.
Even at her level, they are still looking for loopholes to bring her down.
Nigeria is still struggling between backwardness and civilization.

Abee79:
She fell into the trap.
Now her name is stained forever . . .

tnerro1:
They should suspend the accountant general also, instead of correcting her against such , she just said go and pay from ur ministry, it is not for me to pay 😁

delpee:
You're somehow right. So it happened to Dr Adenike Grange whose naivety did her in. I believe Dr Betta Edu meant well. She probably fell into a trap due to her inexperience and naivety. Hope it ends well for her.

SIONKPO1:
Betta Edu messed up,its obvious she wanted to cash out quick.
No wonder people that goes visits her said its USD she gives out.
Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs should be scrapped or its budget reduced Drastically cause it seems the allocation to the MDA is way much with little or no impacts on Nigerians.
She could have just settled BATCH C NPOWER beneficiaries their 9months stipends buy she paid only one month.

Lanruze:
Dr. Beta Edu may be a very brilliant Medical Doctor but fell into a Big trap which was set up for her by the NSIPA -National Social Investment Programme Agency, National Coordinator- Halima Shehu.

1, Anyone who knows the Civil Service well knows that this is corruption fighting Back with it's full cylinders.

2, The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs- Dr. Beta Edu revealed the fraud perpetuated by the NC- NSIPA through " various multiple" accounts and contractors under her Ministry to the tune of N44B to the presidency.

3, The Presidency moved swiftly by inviting the N.C- NSIPA through its anti- graft agency to it's office to explain the transfer of such humongous sums to Bank accounts of " various'' contactors.

4, In corruption fighting back, this memo prepared and advised by civil servants with the approval of the President, Dr. Beta Edu suggested a re-imbursment of the Programme director for the programme to the tune of approx. N590m whilst seeking approval of the OAGF to approve.

5, The Accountant General who was more experienced on the extant laws of public procurement and disbursement rejected the memo and advised on a proper disbursement channel which was stated as beneficiary accounts.

6, The money wasn't disbursed and memo dated 20th December, 2023 was retrieved by pure evil mischief makers to serve as a bait and to use evidence against the Ministers by disgruntled characters who were reported by Beta Edu earlier to the presidency.

7, Dr. Beta Edu was eager to prove a point as a performance driven Minister and wanted to her tenor to be more impactful than the last Ministers' tenor under the Buhari regime.

8, Unfortunately for Dr. Edu, the structure and process of disbursement of funds for the most vulnurable & poorest of the poor in the ministry she inherited was the trap set up for her.

9, The poorest people in Nigeria don't have Bank accounts and there was a sense of urgency by the presidency for the funds to be distributed either by cash or through accounts before the Christmas & new year festivites for 2023.

10, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should use his utmost wisdom ,managerial tact and skill in managing this particular issue.

11, Corruption is fighting Beta Edu back ferociously and the culprits seem to have an edge as they have deployed all mediums including the media to make this woman look like the villian.

MrProlific95:
Sahara Reporters are in the business of hustling.

Rumors has it that before Sahara reporters start singing and blowing your corruption whistle, they will first of all approach you to settle them, when you dont they make sure every second one news about whatever you have done hit the media space.


This is not a joke.


Sowore is not honest person himself

zed7:
Common sense says it isn't legal. Apart from the civil service regulations, rational thinking dictates that such amount of money should be dispensed from a government account for transparency and accountability.

We are not surprised by the kind of people appointed as Ministers, most of whom are mistresses, party hangers on and miscreants.

I still respect Obj till tomorrow. Dude was not sentimental, went for only the best of the best, unfortunately we took that Obj regime for granted. Every other president has been worse off than his predecessor.

PressMyButton:
Wike, Umahi, Tunji-ojo, you've got to watch your back. Opposition is never happy seeing you deliver creditably, they try every ways possible to throw the spanner in the wheels. Since Betta took over, she has opened up various programmes, added more beneficiaries into the welfare packages, more impressively is the introduction of retired security personnels, widows of gallant soldiers who died on the field, including previously neglected soldiers whose limps were lost in battle, giving them a new lease of life. My advice to the opposition is, let people work and stop the distractions. Sponsoring media propaganda against top notch performers is a poor tactics and a wrong use of money. Betta is a moving train.

seunmsg:
I’m a public servant and I know the effort we’ve put into the system to prevent corrupt practices like this. I was part of an audit assignment that led to the exposure of how project accountants are used to siphon public funds. That work led to the issuance of the attached treasury circular in 2020 that prohibits payment of public funds into the private account of any staff under the guise of project accountant.

So, if I’m more angry with the Accountant General for obliging the fraudulent request, I have my reasons because she clearly knows better than the minister. My comment did not exonerate the minister in any way. I only want the Accountant General to also be punished for this.

Seefinish:
The government is indirectly telling some of the people who are hawking those things to go into crimes.
High crime rate is in offing
