As Nigeria faces economic hardship and inflation, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Yemi Cardoso and his four deputies have reportedly purchased bulletproof SUVs valued at over N10 billion.
According to Daily Nigerian, the CBN officials have been spending extravagantly, including acquiring ultra-modern armored vehicles and raising their allowances, even while many Nigerians endure hunger and economic difficulties.
Reports indicate that Governor Cardoso recently acquired six armored Lexus LX 600 2023 models for himself and the four deputy governors—Emem Usoro, Philip Ikeazor, Bala Bello, and Sani Abdullahi—at a total cost exceeding N10 billion.
Cardoso received two SUVs for his personal use in Lagos and Abuja, while each of the other four deputies received one.
Additionally, sources reveal that these officials already possessed armored vehicles in their convoys prior to this new acquisition.
Nigeria Govt officials emulating a well developed country's Govt officials ways and not considering that those countries manufactured those engines in their land which means there would be difference in prices,reasons for its uses etc, hope they repent before it will be too late
