Alleged ₦‎138 Million Fraud: EFCC Grills Ex-Minister Uju Ohanenye by InfoGuru118(op): 8:21pm On Mar 06, 2025
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is currently interrogating former Minister of Women Affairs, Uju Ohanenye, over alleged misappropriation, procurement violations, and diversion of public funds amounting to ₦138 million, News360 Nigeria reports.

According to a top EFCC source, the former minister arrived at the agency’s headquarters around 11 a.m. on Thursday and is being questioned regarding her role in the alleged financial misconduct linked to the 2023 budget allocation for the ministry.

The source revealed, “Investigators are questioning Uju Kennedy Ohanenye over her alleged involvement in the misappropriation and diversion of public funds totaling ₦138,413,253.89.”

“EFCC findings indicate that donations meant for the P-Bat Cares for Women Initiative were diverted for personal use.”

Efforts to get a response from the EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, were unsuccessful as of the time of this report.

Ohanenye was among the five ministers dismissed by President Bola Tinubu during the 19th Federal Executive Council meeting in October 2024.

She was replaced by Imaan Suleiman-Ibrahim, the former Minister of State for Police Affairs, as the new Minister of Women Affairs.

Ordinary 138m, when ministers, and senators
Are there stealing or padding budgets with tens of billions, in broad daylight without challenge.

NNPC Gmd is colliding in trillions of naira or
Billions of dollars 💸 while everyone is pretending
not to know what's going on in the petroleum sector.
