The lawmaker representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District, on his Twitter handle ‏@benmurraybruce, wrote: “It breaks my heart that at a time when many Nigerians can’t eat, we are budgeting N40 million to feed wildlife in Aso Rock Presidential Villa!

“At N510 to a dollar, #BuyNaijaToGrow TheNaira is no luxury, it is not even a necessity. Nigeria has reached the stage where it’s a necessity!

“I celebrate the ICPC for buying made in Aba bags and call on other MDAs of the government to join the #BuyNaijaToGrowTheNaira movement!

“As someone who has over the years advocated for the FG to legalize illegal refineries, I commend the VP and urge him to put action to words,” he added.
