Sunday Dare: We Need N81 Million To Cut Abuja Stadium Grass by viviangist(op): 3:57pm On Nov 29, 2020

The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr Sunday Dare, has said that the government needs N81 million to cut the grass that has taken over the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja.

He made the revelation while speaking during a seminar organised by the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria.

The minister said he had reached out to the Abuja Environmental Protection Board for an assessment of the stadium, which was built in 2003 with N53 billion on a 29 hectares (72 acres) of land, Daily Trust reports.

“We approached AEPB to come to see what can be done to clear the grass and weed in the stadium and they told us it would cost us N81m.

“If we tell Nigerians we used N81m which is not even available; there will be an outcry. The funds are not there for us, and that is why we are partnering with private investors to bring back the key components of our infrastructures,” he said.

Very cheap. The stadium is three times larger than the primary school in Borno where N236m was used to clear grass.

The Sports Minister is a prudent manager of state resources.

All these, #OnlyInBuhariGovt

Another theif parading as minister. Twenty aboki youths can cut that grass at the rate of 1k each making it 20k. If he wants to use mowers, five guys can also do it and it will cost less than 50k.

So what does this idiot want to do with 81 million naira??

God punish you there, rogue!!!

To be frank if I'm a human resources manager of any firm I'll consider hiring a man like this. He has proven to be a prudent minister unlike one Lawal who found himself enmeshed in a N500m grass-cutting scandal.

What a wasteful country. Everything must be expensive because everyone wants a cut of the deal. The contract might end up being done for N10m by the fourth hand contractor.
