Nasarawa suspends scholarship board’s secretary over missing fund

The Nasarawa State Government, on Friday, said it had suspended the Secretary of the state scholarship board, Abdulwahab Suleiman for alleged missing of fund.

The Secretary to the Nasarawa State Government, Mallam Mohammed Abdullahi, made this disclosure in a statement he made available to newsmen in Lafia.

He said the suspension, which took immediate effect, would give room for the repositioning of the board to enhance effective service delivery.
