nd audit of state governments, agencies and personnel, who spent the COVID-19 funds from the government and private individuals.

They stated these during a virtual meeting of stakeholders on the COVID-19 Funds Management and Monitoring.

The FG needs to be probed too.

Very good to hear and a lesson to learn. Sometimes your friend can be your enemy so, don't be carried away

Continue fooling ursefs.

I knew it would come to this Dead country

These guys aren't seriouse. Why give them the funds in the first place when you know, already, that it'll be diverted? Or are you guys trying to divert people's attention from your own diversions? Sick!

I will wait for that faithful day when Nigerians won’t take your shit anymore .

Thank you PMB

Now the real drama starts....

FG probe FG for diversion of COVID-19 funds.... Better.

Tales by moonlight..

They should start with their self 1st b4 going to the States

SCAM’DEMIC!

The money scam war has just begun

The federal government headed by mbuhari should endeavor to probe itself as well.

COVID19Nigeria

I also heard the FG insisted on sharing food to school pupils who have been at home for 3 months. Ridiculous!

The FG won't probe it's own agencies? When the Humanitarian Affairs Minister claimed to have shared ten Billion naira in two days? And AjuriNgelale saying they're using SIM cards database to reach Nigerians with Covid-19 palliatives, and kidnappers are using same without trace?

Is there anything our so called leaders can’t loot

So covid'19 is now an opportunity to loot.. This why some Nigerians don't believe in existence of the pandemic here in Nigeria.. Who did this to us🤔

Details pls

We've been saying it... Coronavirus is a scam

I give up on Nigeria... Shior! 😖

Enhee! We talk am, ndi oshimoshi

They should kuku steal Covid19 virus itself 🙄🙄🙄. Animals!

Covid-19 pandemic will not stop in Nigeria even if the whole world overcome it, because it's another way of making big money political leaders. So, who bells the cat in the probing.

Thief accuse thief hissss

When will this country start surprising us? We predicted this misappropriation of funds and here it is.

There is so much hope for this country.

First we should start with the NCDC then Presidential task Force, (PTF)

Is it not this same AGF that burn his office over 2trillion naira shared to people as palliatives. Are they not more probing him again

EFFC vs NCDC ( first leg) EFCC vs PTF ( second leg) EFCC vs Senators ,( semi final)

People that will probe are they not humans? COVID 1_9 is just an avenue for the leaders to embezzle money.

This news is waste of data in Nigeria

Good! Start from the top (FG) to the bottom (states). No stone should be left unturned!

Yeye de smell, na Corona go settel una matter so

I’m tired 😓 of Nigerian news, media thought we were naive when we said they were using covid 19 to steal money in nigeria. Ole ni everybody.

Naija na so, the more things change the more they remain the same.

FG should prove FG too. Dazzol

The league just start Covid19 fc Vs Efcc fc
