A former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu has flayed the National Assembly over the N37 billion budgeted for the renovation of the National Assembly complex.
Adebutu, a two-term member of the National Assembly, while fielding questions from newsmen during the End of the Year party organised for members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Abeokuta, on Monday, said the present National Assembly is a “department of the All Progressives Congress”.
He also said the National Assembly under the leadership of Senator Ahmed Lawan and Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila has become ” an appendage of an inept administration of General Muhammadu Buhari.”
