Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has urged the World Bank to release information concerning its $500million fund for electricity projects in Nigeria.
The World Bank board of directors had last week approved $500million to help boost access to electricity in Nigeria and improve the performance of the electricity distribution companies (Disco) in the country.
SERAP, in the request, addressed to the World Bank President, Mr. David Malpass, said it would appreciate it if the bank could release archival records to identify and name any executed projects, Nigerian officials, ministries, departments and agencies (MDA) involved in the execution of such projects.
