“We don’t know that is happening and nobody is listening to us. We even fear that the money has been misappropriated just like it happened with the National Youth Service (NYS) billions,” he said.
“Our demands are clear that we want the money released and the report implemented. Although we had reservations on how the report was compiled, we agreed to support it in principle,” he said, adding that the association will mobilise its members to demonstrate on Monday to press for release of the funds.
