What they said

Rep. Abdullahi Halims, the Chairman of the committee, said the Steel complex would create job opportunities, and also help to address the issue of insecurity arising from unemployment of the youths.

“To be succinct and precise, the purpose of this oversight/inspection is to see how the operations of the Ministry is faring.

“We also seek to gather information, identify challenges, build synergy, and look for ways to resolve issues that needs government input through legislative actions”, the lawmaker said.

He added that Nigeria is currently facing challenges in human, social and economic development, citing Nigeria is enmeshed in political activities geared towards shaping the nation for the better, and visits such as this will broaden the horizon of political gladiators.

“The committee will help to see how government agencies through budgetary releases can foster and build confidence in the teeming youth through legislative engagements.
