Claim: Social media users, here (archived here) and here (archived here), have claimed that the National Assembly has inserted projects to spend N266 million each to erect 1,477 units of streetlights across their constituencies and senatorial districts. This follows a similar X-post claim made by BudgIT, a civic society organisation. Verdict: Misleading.
