Misappropriation of SIP Funds Sparks Calls for Tinubu to Probe Buhari Govt

Allegations of massive fraud in the operations of the National Social Investment Programme Agency, NSIPA, as well as the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, have sparked calls for President Bola Tinubu to probe the administration of his predecessor, former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Buhari set up NSIPA in 2016, a year after he assumed office as Nigeria’s President, to drive his administration’s National Social Investments Programmes in order to tackle poverty and hunger across the country.

NSIPA is currently an agency under the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
