NGRSenate , Sadiya_farouq should also be summoned.

Dis Senate should take time. 2023 is election year. APC needs money ( not to buy votes ). Money is needed for ' logistics ' before, during, and after election. Senate should not ask dumb questions. Keep our secret, secret!

Only Oduduwa Republic and Biafra Republic will save us all

The biggest thief under the guise of fake humanitarian project

She'll go there and give them the eye like messi gives goalkeepers the eye b4 scoring,,they'll tell her to go and tidy her books and forward their account details later

APC government is Criminality Personification

Buhari created Humanitarian, disaster management and social development ministry to serve as a conduit pipe for siphoning public funds.

She did not send the NASS share to them?

Naa today, go back to their files and discover a lot of atrocities and fraud/scam throughout their tenure .

Just take a look at how constructive this people are doing to their citizen, undermining their right in an abusive manners, while not been parade by law enforcers, is the only nightmare you will never found happening to a Nigeria politicians.

this lady,that of finance and malami will be one of the few that will taste jail if a good government succeeds this administration

Humanitarian minister blames Ahmed for N206bn budget paddingThe Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development, Sadiya Farouq, has blamed the Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed, for adding N206bn to the humanitarian ministry’s budget. No one takes responsibility in this APC government, they keep shifting blames. I pity those who want to vote for APC again. Haba. AUTHORITY STEALING.ALLI and the FORTY THI*VES. See what they have turned the country into. In a sane clime, should the minister of finance still has her job? But since no one is in charge, ANYTHING GOES.
