By Joy Odor on November 30, 2022

President Muhammadu Buhari, Tuesday, requested the Senate to approve the legalisation and institutionalisation of the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP) in Nigeria.

The president also forwarded a letter to the Senate seeking approval for the creation of 10 new national parks across the country.

Buhari, on the social investment programme, urged the Senate to consider and approve an executive bill forwarded to it to that effect.

He explained in the letter read in plenary by the Senate president, Ahmad Lawan that consideration and passage of the bill will provide the enabling law for effective implementation of the programme geared towards poverty alleviation of vulnerable Nigerians.
