SERAP Sues Governors, Including Wike, Over ₦14 Trillion Fuel Subsidy Savings

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has taken legal action against Nigerian governors, including Nyesom Wike, for not providing an account of the alleged ₦14 trillion fuel subsidy savings. SERAP accuses the governors and the Federal Capital Territory Minister of failing to disclose how the funds were spent, potentially harming public interest and transparency.

The lawsuit aims to ensure accountability and transparency in public fund management, especially concerning the substantial fuel subsidy savings. SERAP emphasizes the importance of transparency in preventing misuse of funds and protecting the rights of Nigerian citizens.
