Ngoshe was reportedly removed from the governor’s nominated cabinet following a series of charges against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The charge reads:

It was gathered that in March, Ngoshe was arraigned before Justice Aisha Kumaliya of the Borno State High Court on a one-count charge of criminal misappropriation of N24,000,000.00 (Twenty-Four Million Naira).
He, however, pleaded “not guilty” while the judge remanded him and adjourned the case till May.
