DAILY POST reports that each lawmaker in the National Assembly received N160 million for a Toyota Land Cruiser SUV. Some lawmakers have stressed that it is not new for government workers to be buying vehicles for official duties. And the LP presidential candidate specifically spoke about the lawmakers being part of the sharing, saying he had a discussion with them on the matter.
'Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the House, I have actually discussed this issue with them. I heard that these vehicles are official cars,' Obi said during a press conference in Abuja on Monday. 'Which means they have to make use of them while in office. They are meant for official use so it's not as if it's their vehicles. 'They are meant to use them while they're in the Senate but you know how things work here.
