Nigeria’s Finance Minister, Kemi Adeosun, has resigned, according to a Daily Trust report quoting unnamed sources.

“It is not clear when she submitted her resignation letter,” the report published on Friday afternoon said.

“According to our source, the resignation followed the allegation of not serving the compulsory National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, and obtaining a certificate that the NYSC have disowned,” the report said.

It added that “the minister felt that her position is becoming untenable and is hurting the President in the run up to the 2019 election.”
