EFCC silent as Betta Edu allegedly stages comeback
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) may have gone cold six months after investigating embattled minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr Betta Edu on corruption allegations, as speculation emerges about her comeback.
The embattled minister, who is officially suspended, appears to have been let off the hook by the anti-graft agency, as she, yesterday, wrote an official condolence message on the ministry’s letterhead over the recent Jos school building collapse.
In a message on her X handle @edu_betta, Edu equally posted a screenshot of her condolence message on the website. In her message, Edu extended condolences to all those affected.
The statement reads in part: “Our hearts are heavy with sorrow for the families, who have lost their loved ones and for the community enduring this devastating ordeal.
“In times like this, we find ourselves united in our shared grief and determination to support one another through this tragedy.
“May the souls of the departed rest in peace and may the injured receive swift and complete healing. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and all those affected during this incredibly difficult time.”
