Fix roads instead of buying new SUVs – Singer Mayorkun tells lawmakers

Popular singer, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel aka Mayorkun has urged members of the National Assembly to ensure Nigerian roads are fixed instead of buying new vehicles for themselves.

Media Talk Africa recalls that a cross section of Nigerians have been criticising the procurement of 2023 model Toyota Prado for 469 members of the Assembly.

The Chairman, Senate Committee on Services, Sunday Karimi, had justified the purchase of the vehicles in a chat with journalists, saying “Nigerian roads are bad.”

“Fix the fking rooooadddddd!!!!

“Lekki Epe Express is Terrible!. Appalling sh*t!

“Nothing like I can drive’ in this country o, I sabi road’ is a better compliment.”
