The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has called on President Bola Tinubu to order an investigation into the alleged diversion of over ₦78.8 billion in public funds. According to SERAP, the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, the National Cash Transfer Office, and the National Social Safety Nets Coordinating Office should urgently account for funds reportedly diverted, unaccounted for, or irregularly spent under Nigeria's cash transfer programme.

Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has pledged to establish an independent team of experts to investigate an alleged ₦33.75 billion cash transfer reportedly made to millions of vulnerable Nigerian households. According to Ripples Nigeria, Atiku's position follows concerns raised in an audit report questioning whether the funds reached their intended beneficiaries. The promised probe aims to verify the disbursement and address accountability concerns surrounding the government's cash transfer programme.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has described President Bola Tinubu's social intervention programme as a racket, following an Auditor-General's finding that N33.75 billion in cash transfers to 3.29 million households could not be verified. According to a statement issued by the party on Monday, the finding confirms suspicions that social investment under the Tinubu administration benefits officials rather than the poor. The report concerns Nigeria's federal government and its cash transfer scheme.
