SERAP asks Akpabio, Abbas to cut ‘self-serving‘ N345bn NASS budget

Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has urged the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas to reduce the National Assembly’s budget of N344.85 billion.

The group wants the duo to reflect the current economic realities in the country, and cut the cost of governance.

SERAP urged them “to request President Bola Tinubu to present a fresh supplementary appropriation bill, which reflects the reduced National Assembly budget for the approval of the National Assembly.”
