He said: “With the impunity that this government is known for, there is no way the minister would have resigned if not because we are in an election year.
“We expect the minister return all the money she had collected either as salaries or allowances before this scandal.
“She must calculate what she collected since her days as a commissioner in Ogun State up till the day she packed her belongings and left the ministry of finance and pay same to the coffers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“She must show Nigerians the teller with which she paid the money. This will enable Nigerians to know that she has done the needful.
“Also, we need to know the identities of those who helped her procure the fake NYSC discharged certificate. The government needs to clean the place of such characters.”
