Betta Edu, the minister of humanitarian affairs and poverty alleviation, was suspended on Monday as a result of the scandal’s widespread outcry. President Bola Tinubu ordered a probe into Dr. Edu’s ministry, according to a statement from his office. Dr. Edu has refuted any misconduct. Although the transfer into a personal account was not in her name, her office stated that she had approved it and that it was for the “implementation of grants to vulnerable groups”.Being the youngest minister in President Tinubu’s cabinet at 37 years old, Dr. Edu is seen as a close ally of the head of state. In Nigeria, it is unusual for a minister to be suspended; Dr. Edu is the first to lose their position since President Tinubu took office in May of last year. The former president Muhammadu Buhari dismissed
