The economic expert said in a special statement to our source today, Sunday, that the House of Representatives has really followed up on its tasks and oversight role in the effective manner required of it in following up on the performance of the executive authority before the disaster occurred in the city of Derna and its environs, “which shocked us all, Especially since amounts amounting to billions of dinars were previously allocated and approved in the budget by governments for maintain and restore dams. It was the most important and national duty of the Council to follow up on these amounts, where they were spent, and what tangible results were achieved by the authorities, ministries and officials.”
Dadash added, “Isn’t it time for the House of Representatives to rectify itself and wake up from its deep sleep and neglect, as well as the oversight agencies that are required to prepare reports on a regular and continuous basis and closely follow up on these projects? They must also be aware of the size of this problem, its risks, its negative effects, and its bad repercussions locally and internationally.”
Dadash stressed, “The House of Representatives, on this side, with everyone, are partners in this negligence and in this corruption that has affected all state institutions, and where is the task of the oversight agencies?” adding that “the officials have been assigned the task of monitoring these dams and holding them accountable and punishing, and the issue of those in charge of assuming responsibility for following up on these projects, which they really need, which really needs regular maintenance and not be neglected or neglected, despite allocating sufficient amounts for its management.”
Dadash asked the House of Representatives: When allocating an amount of 10 billion dinars for the reconstruction of this city and its environs, did the House study, evaluate and analyze the scale of the disaster and according to real data and information from specialized, advisory and accredited offices that have well-known experiences in the field of reconstruction and dam maintenance? With integrity and transparency, in addition to which specialized foreign or local companies have a long history in this field, did he make a comparison between these entities that will undertake the reconstruction process, or was the amount allocated based on the conviction and desire of the House of Representatives?
Dadash continued by saying, “Does this number end the problem and return this beautiful city to the Libyans’ embrace as we used to embrace it after reconstruction, or is it a feeling of responsibility on his part and the magnitude of the danger that may affect him at any moment from the homeland and the citizen, at this late time to assume his responsibilities?”
Dadash concluded, during his statement to our source, that countries and nations do not fall and end with terrorist bombs and terrorist bombings, but it is easy for them to collapse and collapse due to corrupt practices and the actions of the corrupt.
