Nasarawa State House of Assembly Speaker Danladi Jatau has urged Governor Abdullahi Sule to prioritise the renovation of the assembly complex, which has not been completely overhauled since 2012.
The appeal was made during an inspection tour of the complex in Lafia on Wednesday.
Jatau expressed concern over the building's deteriorating state, emphasising that most of the offices were no longer conducive to lawmakers and staff.
He noted that functional workspaces were essential for efficient legislative operations, stating that a "conducive environment is crucial to sound and robust legislature."
The speaker highlighted the struggles assembly members and staff faced due to malfunctioning facilities, including broken air conditioners and other non-operational appliances.
