President Muhanmadu Buhari on Tuesday sought for legalisation and institutionalisation of the Social Investment Programme in Nigeria (NSIP).
This is as he, among other requests forwarded to the Senate through different letters, sought for creation of 10 new national parks across the country.
Buhari requested 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.
