A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Daniel Bwala, has commended the decision of President Bola Tinubu for suspending his Humanitarian Affairs Minister, Betta Edu.<\/p>\n
Recall that Tinubu handed the directive in a statement on Monday by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, who also announced the suspension over the N585m scandal in the ministry.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the development in a tweet made available yesterday, Bwala, a strong ally of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar hailed the President for his action.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cAgain @officialABAT is showing that when there is a credible substance in an allegation he will act in public interest. He has suspended the beauty pageant minister. Give it to him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, in another post, Bwala showed a video where the embattled minister was responding to journalists over the scandal.<\/p>\n
