Editor/

Women Affairs Minister, Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, has threatened to sue the United Nations (UN) for alleged financial mismanagement.

Addressing a press conference in Abuja today, the minister claimed that the UN had been receiving monies from donors on behalf of Nigerians.

“I stand here as the minister of women affairs to demand from the UN the account of all the monies they sourced from donors in Nigeria’s name,” the minister said.

“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 declared.
