It was too early. Northerner want that position so badly, but she played into their hands

She played her hand
She no wise

The so called "Not too young to run".

I see her being cleared . I am not her supporter and I generally do not like her but if it cannot be shown that she benefitted or intended to benefit from her action especially if it is established that it had been the practice to do what she did at that Ministry in the past before she arrived then she will be cleared
There is information that what she did is being done or was done by all Ministers or most under Buhari and still now . That is likely to work in her favour and put down to inexperience
Going forward
She might be cleared and returned to office or cleared but still sacked and settled somewhere else
The key issue would be did she benefit or intend to benefit personal

I will be so disappointed in her if she's found guilty of all accusations levied against her upon all investigations

Did you say she finished secondary school in 2001?

According to her profile, she was born on the 27th of October 1986.

So she finished secondary school at 13 years.

Actually, 1986-2001 is 15 years

Most importantly, she has added her name to the list of high profile corrupt persons to be indicted while serving in government.

That disastrous ministry should be scrapped pls.

Petty thief

She quickly alleviated her own poverty at the detriment of poor Nigerians 😒😒

100% that is it.

drmuchin:
She played her hand
She no wise

Worst part, she has access to Tinubu.
That alone can make her money with time (by acting like an informal lobbyist)... but she went full force in abusing her own position.

How did she abuse her position? I wan to play devil's advocate here
Any person investigating this matter has to be open minded and listen to both sides of the story

If you have already made up your mind you cannot be objective

What do you believe to be abuse exactly?
Is there any evidence that she benefitted or intended to benefit from her action?

Please you people should stop dragging her
Anytime Igbos does something you people will want to crucify them
Nothing will happen to beta edu

The YORUBA Minister mentioned in the same brouhaha is being shielded
Nonsense

I don't know, awarding your friend (Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo), a contract worth hundreds of millions of naira (the same contract was given TWICE, 179m and over 150m).
Pushing hundreds of millions of naira into a private account (where you have full control of such funds even though you were advised against it by the Accountant General), and finally inflating travel budgets for you and your aides (including flight fees to places without airports). I am sure there are many more things not yet known to the public, all of these in less than 6 months of appointment.

Okay, okay. You are one of those with mental illness on Nairaland or directly profited from her fraud.
I sincerely thought you asked me a question. Sorry. Oya, continue, I wouldn't reply you again sir.


I wish Seun can give us the ability to block specific profiles so we don't have to have these confrontations..

Did I say what you said I said? That is why many of you can never pass English

There is no onus on her to PROVE anything and I never said what you said I said so go and collect your money from your English teacher.
I never mentioned the word PROVE
I never talked about her GOING FREE under ANY circumstances

15yrs... You no know maths?

I knew of a girl like that in 2008. She finished secondary school when she was barely 14.
