Hot seat alert! Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo faces the heat of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) today over an N438 million contract scandal swirling around his former company. This alleged conflict of interest adds another twist to the saga of the troubled Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
Key points:
- CCB summons Tunji-Ojo for questioning: The Bureau is officially investigating potential breaches of the Code of Conduct related to a contract awarded to Tunji-Ojo’s former company, New Planet Projects.
- N438 million “consultancy fee”: This hefty sum, paid by the scandal-plagued Humanitarian Affairs Ministry, raises eyebrows and concerns about transparency.
- Minister denies wrongdoing: Tunji-Ojo claims he resigned from the company in 2019, but questions linger about potential conflicts and possible influence peddling.
- Humanitarian Ministry under scrutiny: This latest development adds fuel to the already raging fire engulfing the ministry, currently under investigation for alleged fraudulent activities by the suspended minister, Betta Edu.
