TV Host Babajide Otitoju has condemned Betta Edu, the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs for being power drunk and not following the workings of the stipulated civil service rules.

Otitoju stated that Betta withdrew and diverted funds without Halima Shehu's consent who is the accounting officer and National Coordinator of the National Social Investment Programme Agency.

Recall that a cross-section of Nigerians, on Monday slammed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Presidency over their long silence regarding the alleged fraud.

It was learnt that the anti-graft agency had submitted the interim report of its investigation into the allegations against the suspended minister, and recommended that Edu be prosecuted.
