#OccupyNASS ~ Geri Alimi

WHAT WE WANT:

1. The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Railway and other sensitive projects that were replaced with procurement of tricycles and construction of mini-town halls, must return to the 2016 budget with immediate effect.

2. The Senate cannot be buying exotic cars when Nigerians are seriously complaining of hunger. It is the height of political insensitivity and social detachment.

3. The Senate must stop slowing down the government of President Muhammadu Buhari intentionally, through cheap political manipulation. Their sole duty is to make laws. With over N100 billion in mind-boggling allowances, how many bills has this Senate passed??

4. The Senate must embrace the Treasury Single Account (TSA) financial system, to ensure transparency and accountability. The Senate cannot be a government unto itself.

5. If the Senate cannot meet our above demands, then they must know that their time is up! They have outlived their usefulness and Nigeria is better off without them!
