Popular singer, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel aka Mayorkun has told members of the National Assembly to fix Nigerian roads instead of buying new vehicles for themselves.
Recall that a cross-section of Nigerians have been criticizing moves to procure 2023 model of Toyota Prado for 469 members of the Assembly.
The Chairman of the Senate Committee on Services, Sunday Karimi, had justified the purchase of the vehicles in a chat with journalists, saying “Nigerian roads are bad.”
Reacting via his Snapchat page recently, singer Mayorkun urged the lawmakers to fix Nigerian roads instead of buying vehicles for themselves.
He wrote, “Road no good, una dey buy new SUV.
“Fix the f**king 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.”
