National Assembly Will Monitor Spending of COVID-19 Funds - Lawan

The National Assembly remains absolutely committed to ensuring accountable spending of all funds that form part of the Covid-19 interventions either from the government or donor agencies, says Senate President, Ahmad Lawan.

He made this submission Wednesday in Abuja at a public presentation of a publication by the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic NILDS on "Political Economy of Pandemics and Consequences of Covid-19 for Nigeria".

The Senate President said the National Assembly will not rest on its laurels, with respect to ensuring all agencies of government executing various Covid-19 interventions are closely monitored.
