Ask Niger Republic To Immediately Refund N1.4 billion And Use It To Offset ASUU Funding – SERAP Tells Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has been told to demand a refund of N1.4 billion it gave Niger Republic for the purchase of luxury cars.

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) made the call on Twitter.

The Nigerian government on Wednesday, August 3, confirmed that President Muhammadu Buhari approved the purchase and donation of vehicles, worth N1.4 billion, to neighbouring Niger Republic.

This revelation sparked outrage and the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, said that the donation was to help Niger address its security concerns.

Reacting, civil society group, Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) tweeted: “The Buhari administration must immediately ask Niger Republic authorities to refund the N1.4 billion approved for them to buy vehicles, and use the money to offset the funding for ASUU, so that poor children can go back to school.”
