We Don't Need N37bn To Renovate National Assembly - Osun Rep by Scapoos(m) : 1:33 pm |
National Assembly complex
There has been a nationwide outrage since President Muhammadu Buhari approved the amount for the renovation of the complex. In a Facebook post on Sunday, Salam, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who represents Ede federal constituency, said the complex does not need any renovation more than the classrooms, roads, hospitals that are in bad state across the country. He proposed that the money be channeled towards creating more jobs and giving out interest- free loans to small scale businesses. “As an advocate of an aggressive microcredit strategy for job creation, I would rather want to see 370,000 small businesses get 100k interest free loan within 12 months rather than have 1 edifice swallow that sum within the same period. †Salam added that he would advocate a change of the policy when the house of representatives reconvenes in January. “If we mop up all funds voted for renovations of the presidential villa and other offices of political leaders and top civil servants, we will raise more than a quarter of a trillion Naira that can be injected into SMES in the coming year,†he said.
