Akpabio and Abbas have been given a seven-day deadline to abandon their idea to spend $110 billion on bulletproof cars

SERAP characterized the NASS members' plan to purchase exotic cars as a clear conflict of interest and self-dealing.The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has warned the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, to abandon plans to spend $110 billion on new vehicles for National Assembly members.The request was made in a letter dated July 15, 2023, and signed by the organization's Deputy Director, Kolawole Oluwadare. SERAP also bemoaned the fact that 70 billion has been set aside as a'support allowance' for 306 new lawmakers, but only 500 billion has been suggested as a palliative relief package to mitigate the impact of the elimination of fuel subsidies. As a result, the organization requested that Akpabio and Abbas "drop the charges."
