SERAP Urges Senate President and Speaker to Cut National Assembly Budget and Publish Spending Details

SERAP urged both leaders of the National Assembly to request President Bola Tinubu to present a fresh supplementary appropriation bill, which reflects the reduced National Assembly budget for the approval of the National Assembly.

The group also urged them to promptly publish details of the National Assembly budget, including the proposed spending details of the three billion naira for the Senate Car Park and three billion naira budgeted for the House of Representatives Car Park.

In the letter dated 13 January 2024 and signed by SERAP deputy director, Kolawole Oluwadare, the organization said, passing appropriation bills that are inconsistent with the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution is a fundamental breach of the constitutional oath of office by the lawmakers.
