A spokesperson for the Nigerian Senate has stated that senators were not involved in the procurement of a 100 billion Naira (approximately $100 million) fleet of SUVs. The spokesperson clarified that vehicle allocation is managed by the bureaucracy for committee work and legislative duties. No SUVs are individually registered to senators, according to the statement. This clarification comes after public scrutiny regarding the substantial expenditure. The Senate maintains that the procurement process is handled administratively, distancing lawmakers from direct involvement in the vehicle selection or acquisition. The statement aims to address concerns about potential misuse of funds and ensure transparency regarding official vehicle provisions. Further details regarding the specific allocation and purpose of the SUVs have not been released.
