The House of Representatives has said media reports that each member will get N200 million sports utility vehicle (SUV) is a bit “exaggerated”. The House, in a statement by its spokesperson, Akin Rotimi on Sunday, said the vehicles that will be distributed to members are not for personal use.
According to the statement, the vehicles are attached to members and must be returned after their tenure. Rotimi stated that buying of operational vehicle is not peculiar to the legislature, as appointees of the executive have also gotten cars attached to them.
He explained that members are to drop the cars after their tenure but can keep them if they are willing to pay. “For the duration of the 10th assembly , the vehicles shall remain the property of the National Assembly.
