8 Buhari’s Ministers Under Probe – EFCC Source

At least eight ministers, who served under former President Muhammadu Buhari, have been invited over allegations bordering on corruption, according to an Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) source.

The invitation letters, it was learnt, requested the former top government officials to come and explain how they spent funds allocated to their ministries on some designated projects when they held sway at their respective positions.

The letters, it was gathered, were extended to the former ministers before the suspension of Abdulrasheed Bawa as chairman of the commission.

The anti-graft agency had commenced investigations, according to sources within the commission.

The source said apart from the former minister of Women’s Affairs, Pauline Tallen, who was invited last week over alleged N2bn fraud and “part of the money allegedly diverted from the African First Lady Peace Mission Project,” about seven others have also been invited.
