Nigeria’s Minister of Regional Affairs, Uba Maigeri, has denied allegations of diverting N16.5 billion intended for the Namnai Bridge reconstruction in Taraba State, labeling the social media claims as baseless and malicious.
The minister’s legal counsel, Dr. Ibrahim Effiong, confirmed that legal action has been initiated against the accuser, Abdulmumuni Imam. Effiong stated the matter is now before the court for resolution.
