Alleged N585m Fraud: Give Betta Edu a second chance — Femi Pedro
Former deputy governor of Lagos State, Femi Pedro, has asked Nigerians to give the suspended minister of humanitarian affairs and poverty alleviation, Betta Edu, a second chance.
Edu, who was on Monday, January 8, suspended by President Bola Tinubu, is currently being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over payment of public funds into a private account.
The former Lagos deputy governor in a statement on Wednesday, January 10, said: “We have all read about her wrongdoings and her suspension by the President and questioning by the EFCC.
Betta Edu is like a daughter to me and I feel really sorry for her for the mess she finds herself in. I asked myself what if she’s my daughter? Would I disown her? She’s a promising bright star who could have served this nation in higher capacities.”
