Nigeria’s Women Affairs Minister, Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, has berated the United Nations (UN) over alleged financial mismanagement, threatening to sue them.
The Minister while addressing a press conference in Abuja on Monday, October 16, accused the UN of receiving monies from donors on behalf of Nigerians without giving proper account of how the monies are being used.
In her words:
“I stand here as the minister of women affairs to demand from all the UN of the account of all the monies they sourced from donors in Nigeria’s name. We want to see the account of what they did. If you don’t give us this account, at least let Nigerians see what’s going on, then you [UN] apologize to them. If we don’t get that report between now and November 15, we’re heading to court,” she said
