Former Kogi West lawmaker, Senator Dino Melaye has queried the decision of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture to award contract of N30million for the construction of a “Friday Mosque” despite huge food security challenge that the ministry is supposed to be investing in.
Melaya shared the letter of “Award of Contract” on Twitter, further querying what Government has got to do with churches and mosques.
He wrote:
“What!!!!! Despite all the challenges facing food security, building a mosque is the Federal Ministry of Agriculture’s priority! To pray for Rain or what? How did we get here for Heaven sake. What has Government got to do with churches or mosque?”
