Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, on Sunday, urged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and the Independent Corrupt
Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC, to probe the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila; and the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola over an alleged swap of constituency project.
It said the President ought to have sent his observations to the anti-graft agencies, so those responsible for the criminal padding of the budget are arrested, prosecuted and sanctioned in line with the law. In fact, the project board mounted at a site in Surulere listed the school as the client for a project in Gbajabiamila’s constituency; the project being the construction and reconstruction of an inner access road in Surulere Olodi Okuta/Aralule Akinyele Street.
“As shown in that video and as facts have shown that the Federal Government is currently renovating old state-inherited federal housing in Surulere, Shitta housing estate, parks in Surulere. In fact, Surulere has the highest number of street lights per block than anywhere in Nigeria. Nearly every compound has a street light.
