Abuja, Jan. 11, 2024 – The Governor of All Progressives Congress (APC) have urged Nigerians not pass immediate judgement on the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu.
The governors, under the aegis of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), dismissed the alleged corruption charges brought against the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu as mere allegations.
Gov. Hope Uzodinma, the Chairman of the PGF, who addressed the press after a meeting of the governors on Monday night in Abuja, advised Nigerians to await the outcome of investigation on Edu before passing judgement.
On alleged scandal in the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Uzodinma described the development as just an allegation and in the wisdom of the President, it is being investigated, it is after the investigation is completed and the report made available to the government, that the government will now take the final decision.
“So, don’t be in a hurry and don’t allow any sickness like anxiety cirrhosis.”
Uzodinma said the governors had thrown their weight behind the policies of President Tinubu.
“This is our first meeting since the beginning of this year and the meeting allowed us to review what is going on in the country and also agree on how best to continue to support our government and our party to maximize the benefits of current policies of our administration.
“The progressive governors are united in supporting the APC administration ably lead by our abluent President Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu GCFR.
“We will continue to support him, we will take his policies to the grassroots and as sub-national leaders of our great party, ensure that our people come on the same page with the thinking of the government whose primary objective is to secure the country and provide adequate welfare to the good people of our dear country.”
“The only perfect being we have observed and noticed is the Almighty God. The functions of government encouraging good things and good appointees and discouraging bad things and bad appointees. (GBN)
