The Nigerian Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and House Speaker, Tajudeen Abbas, are under scrutiny to account for the alleged mismanagement of ₦18.6 billion intended for the construction of the National Assembly Service Commission's office complex.

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has demanded transparency and threatened legal action if accountability is not provided within seven days.
