'Election budget should have been used to fix hospitals, schools' - Simi

Nigerian artiste, Simisola Ogunleye-Kosoko aka Simi, has stated that the budget for the 2023 elections should have been used to fix schools and hospitals.

She said this via her Twitter platform while calling out the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Monday, March 20.

Simi wrote: “300 billion naira budget for this joke of an election. @inecnigeria you might have as well given them back the money to fix some hospitals and schools and just used finger to point at the people you wanted to select.”

“The blatant rigging and nobody in power addressed it. Lol. Giant problem of Africa.

“Anybody that saw the disenfranchisement and didn’t condemn it better keep their prayers for Nigeria. She doesn’t need prayers from people like you.”
