The National Assembly is procuring and distributing utility Prado SUVs worth N130 million to lawmakers, according to spokesman Rotimi Akin.
The vehicles are not personal gifts and will remain the property of the National Assembly for the 10th assembly, spanning from 2023 to 2027.
The aim is to enhance lawmakers’ duties, particularly in oversight functions across Nigeria. The vehicles are not status symbols but work tools to facilitate improved representation, constituency outreach, and oversight functions by elected representatives.
