REVEALED: The Woman who Spent N850,000 on Food in one day



It was revealed yesterday at the National Assembly probe that the Director General of the Security and Exchange Commission, Ms Arunma Oteh, spent N850,000 on food in one day, in violation of regulations on how chief executives can spend. She also allegedly stayed eight months in Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja at the cost of N30Million.

The House committee that probed her said she's compromised her position by engaging in a spending spree in the last one year she's been in office. But no one said anything abut her resigning.

N850k on food in one day? Well, it's possible. 24ct gold plated amala and ewedu...:-)
