Nigeria's minister of finance, Kemi Adeosun, has failed simple arithmetic, saying that 16 + 6 = 24.

While addressing a press briefing recently, the finance minister goofed while doing simple arithmetic and said that the addition of 16 billion and 6 billion would amount to N24billion.

Her speech was made during an address as she exposed some anomalies in the examination body where a declaration of N3 million is being made out of N16 billion generated.
