FEC approves N2.2bn 150-seater banquet hall for Aso Rock Villa

The federal government of Nigeria wants to spend over two billion Naira for a 150-seater banquet hall. When i heard about it, i thought perhaps the media made a mistake or did not hear them clearly... and perhaps we are talking of a 10, 000 seater hall which is still not a criteria for that kind of amount.

If i remember well, there's an existing banquet hall in the Villa .Why this one again..?

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Senator Bala Muhammed, said the proposed hall, which will be constructed by Julius Berger, will have walk ways, security post, hall conveniences, technical room and press briefing room. 

And all that for a whooping sum of N2.2bn? ..Mbuk?

But wait o, if i were to speak about this, with all honesty, i think we should reconsider the way we exhume our expenditure in this part of the region/world.

this is quite unnecessary, when we have hungry children and women all over, flood victims and roads to repair.. Please give this a thorough thought before *slow down men at work*
