Akpabio and Abbas
The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project has filed a lawsuit against the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, over their alleged failure to account for N18.6bn earmarked for the construction of the National Assembly Service Commission Office Complex.
Also joined in the suit is the National Assembly Service Commission.
SERAP’s legal action follows damning allegations contained in the Auditor-General of the Federation’s 2022 annual report, released on September 9, 2025.
In the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/2457/2025, filed last week at the Federal High Court in Abuja, SERAP is seeking an order of mandamus compelling Akpabio, Abbas and the NASC to account for the whereabouts of the N18.6bn reportedly paid to an unknown construction company. Punch
