Plenary at the Senate on Wednesday turned rowdy when the Minority Leader, Senator Biodun Olujimi alleged that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration’s Social Intervention Programme is being politicised.
Mrs Olujimi alleged that beneficiaries of the programme were being asked to provide details of their Permanent Voter Card in the application form.
While presenting a copy of the form, she further alleged that ‘I Stand with Buhari’ was written on it.
Thereafter, the chamber became noisy as the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party senators exchanged words across the divide.
The APC lawmakers also forced the Senate to resolve that the SURE-P policy of the immediate past PDP government led by former President Goodluck Jonathan be probed.
