Rights and Accountability Project has asked the Federal High Court in Lagos to restrain the lawmakers from procuring and taking delivery of cars.

The civil society organisation claimed it instituted the suit, which is yet to be assigned to a judge, following reports that the lawmakers are set to procure and take delivery of N57.6 billion SUVs at N160 million per car. In the letter signed by SERAP deputy director Kolawole Oluwadare, it also urged the president to put pressure on the leadership of the Senate and stop members from taking delivery of the planned procurement of bulletproof SUVs, pending the hearing and determination of the application for interim injunction filed before the Federal High Court.

SERAP stated, “It would invariably hamstring the ability of the court to do justice in the pending suit and applications for injunction.
