Orji Uzor Kalu, a senator from Abia North who serves in the National Assembly, has refuted the commonly held belief that senators use government vehicles.
When the representative appeared on Thursday’s episode of Politics Today on Channels Television, he talked about the matter.
Prior to this, federal parliamentarians were frequently accused of being indifferent to the suffering of the populace.
Despite the economic situation, it is often believed that members of the National Assembly have prosperous lives.

Uzor Kalu insisted that only committees be given cars, claiming that lawmakers do not have any official automobiles.
Senator Uzor Kalu said:
“I am in the Senate and a lot of things are said about the Senators and I sit there quietly and watch, and most of these things are not true.
“All I know is that committees get vehicles, no lawmaker is given any vehicle.”
