Labour Party Representatives Criticize Tinubu's Government for Spending N17.5 Trillion on Pipeline Security

Labour Party Representatives in the House of Representatives have accused President Bola Tinubu's government of allocating a significant amount, N17.5 trillion, towards pipeline security in 2024, raising concerns about misplaced priorities. They highlighted the government's focus on costly projects like the multi-trillion naira coastal road, neglecting essential infrastructure needs.

The revelation of the huge expenditure on pipeline security amidst national insecurity has sparked criticism and calls for accountability. The government's handling of funds and lack of transparency have come under scrutiny, especially as contractors remain unpaid, projects stall, and citizens face deteriorating road conditions.
