TVC E – Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has described as a waste of public funds, the building of a new residence for the nation’s number 2.
The VP’s current residence – Aguda House – according to him is sufficient and up to standard.
Interacting with Pastors and Leaders Retreat of the Fountain of Life Church, Ilupeju, Lagos, Osinbajo described the N6 billion already spent on the project as a misapplication of fund although he said that with the level of construction already done, government would have to complete it and find a different use for it.
“There is no need for a new Vice President’s house; it is a kind of waste; we are now in a situation where we cannot abandon it; it has to be completed and used for a different thing,” he said.
On the controversial State House Medical Centre, Osunbajo said it is for the use of all Nigerians hence the need to equip it with all the medical facilities available.
