Buhari is going to spend N81,460 per day on newspapers & magazines!

NASS mgt is disposing off office equipment to outgoing members of @NGRSenate & @HouseNGR at rock bottom prices.

"Payment for the equipment...will be deducted from the severance package of the beneficiaries."

Severance package= N23.678 billion in #2019Budget 🙆‍♂️
.@TheNationNews:

Some non-returning legislators were seen on Friday moving such office equipment into waiting trucks and Sport Utility Vehicles.

Some of the lawmakers gave the acquired items to their aides & supporters. Others sell theirs to willing buyers within NASS complex.
