Following reports that President Muhammadu Buhari approved N37 billion for the renovation of the National Assembly complex, Nigerians have taken to social media to express their displeasure over the development.

Thelagostimes gathered that the Senate president, Ahmad Lawan, while speaking with journalists in Abuja on Monday said there has been no major renovation of the National Assembly building for 20 years and many parts of the property had become dilapidated.

Hence, the sum of N37 billion was reportedly sourced and given for the rehabilitation. This has however sparked outrage among Nigerians as many described the approval as a waste of money and an avenue to loot funds.
