How Saraki’s National Assembly spent N6.6billion Adeosun largesse on exotic cars

Nigeria’s National Assembly has paid out a total N6.6billion for purchase of exotic cars for its members, PREMIUM TIMES and UDEME can authoritatively report today.

Official documents obtained by this newspaper showed that the purchases were made by the three arms of the federal parliament—the Senate, the House of Representatives and the management unit of the lawmaking arm.

Records show that the Senate is the biggest spender, purchasing a total N3.2billion worth of cars from 10 different contractors.

The lower chamber followed closely, acquiring N3billion worth of exotic cars in 17 deals.

The management of the National Assembly wrapped up the car procurement extravaganza, taking delivery of N430million worth of cars using five different dealers.
