REVEALED: Youth Ministry Paid One Man N10m Twice to ‘Invite 50’ Youths to Tinubu’s 1st Anniversary


To mark the first anniversary of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, the Ministry of Youth Development invited at least 50 youths from across Nigeria’s 36 states to the presidential villa. This venture cost the ministry N20 million, paid in violation of the financial regulations, FIJ has gathered.

Tinubu assumed office on May 29, 2023, and immediately began policy changes he claimed would save the country some money. “Fuel subsidy is gone,” he said during his inauguration, immediately increasing the cost of living and dividing expert opinions.

One year after taking the reins, the presidency organised a celebratory event at the villa to mark the milestone. As part of preparations, the Jamila Ibrahim-led youth ministry shelled out N20 million to invite youths to attend.

Ibrahim’s ministry made N10 million payments twice to one Dahiru Jibril on May 25, 2024, for the same purpose. Each payment, FIJ found on the Govspend portal, has a different payment number.

Each payment description reads: “Being payment for invitation of 50 youths from 36 states of the federation to participate in the celebration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s first year anniversary at the presidential villa.”

The payments had codes 1001185448-1 and 1001185448-2.

By paying into a private account, the ministry violated Nigeria’s Financial Regulations.

Chapter 7, Section 713 of Nigeria’s Financial Regulations (2009), states: “Personal money shall in no circumstances be paid into a government bank account, nor shall any public money be paid into a private account. Any officer who pays public money into a private account is deemed to have done so with fraudulent intention.”

FIJ earlier reported how the State House headquarters violated the same regulation when it made a N10 million payment to a private account on March 15 to purchase consumables for Nana Shettima, wife of Vice President Kashim Shettima.

Probably how he ruled Lagos. Buying everybody with money. No wonder they don't want to pay Nigerian workers a living wage so they will continue to weaponize poverty

Tinubu is an overrated man who survives on lies, deceit, anf money. Without money or manipulation, man cannot deliver a local government chairman.

This one too would be added to the budget.. overhead cost..

There is enough money in government for inanities... but not enough money to take care of the masses.

There is enough money for people to steal and not enough to build value-chain industries and reduce poverty.

What kind of government pushes more of its citizens into poverty on an Hourly basis and is just fine with it.. I am trying to understand this 🤔

The corruption going on under Tinubu is massive. The next president after Tinubu will be worse. Nigeria can never get better. The country is not designed to make things work because the system has made about 90% corrupt. There's no hope anymore, you either join politics and be brutal or get connected. If you can't do this two my brothers and sisters, try japa. It might be difficult when you just arrived but your children will thank you for taking that decision. NIGERIA KOLE DA MO.

#20M in total or to each invite?
‭If indeed they all attend, that is 20,000,000÷50 =400,000

Having a portal where information like this is shared is commendable.

Ordinarily 10m no reach for flight and accommodation for 50 people.

The question is what criteria was used to invite them and why did the government have to sponsor the attendance. Did they make a speech or act a play at the event?

Lets even forgive the above.

Did the 50 youths really attended the event?

if they did, did they come from all over the country?

lastly why was the money paid twice?
