Senator Sabi Abdullahi, the Niger state lawmaker behind the controversial hate speech bill has stated that renovation of the national assembly complex which was built in 1999 is long overdue.
The Senator who spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme, said renovation of the building was stalled before now by the level of legislation that takes place in it.
Senator Sabi Abdullahi said; “When we came on board in this particular republic in 1999, the structures and every other thing that was put in place came in with the transition and since that time till now, it is on record that not much has been done to upgrade, renovate and to continually add value to that institution even as the legislature continues to evolve in terms of what it requires to carry out its democratic function. “The idea of rehabilitating that particular complex is long overdue because this is 20 years now and there was no major rehabilitation done to the structure and it has been serving Nigeria from that period up till now.” He also argued that the N37bn project is not on the high side as the building is bigger inside than what it looks like on the outside. Sabi Abdullahi who wondered why there is an outcry over the amount budgeted for the building, added that Nigerians do not value democracy in the country.
