LASU Fees,Ebola : Fashola Seeks permission To Re - Order Budget by Boscojugunu(m): 10:53pm On Aug 12, 2014 |
Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos state on Tuesday urged the state House of Assembly to approve a request for him to re - order the 2014 budget of the state . The governor said in a letter , read by the clerk of the House , that the request had become very important for the government to meet the demands and expectations of the people . Fashola said the re - ordering is proposed from the capital expenditure provisions of ten agencies with a total value of N 9.960 billion . The governor said these demands have become “ sufficiently compelling and cannot wait until 2015 . ” In the letter titled ‘ Y 2014 Budget Re- Ordering Of Priorities ’ , Fashola said it would successfully help to take care of issues incuding the reversal of LASU school fees , adding that, this “ requires us to make provisions to cover LASU shortfall in projected revenues in order to service the school. ” The re - ordering would also assist the “unanticipated but very urgent need to address the threat of the Ebola Virus epidemic and also a need for counterpart funding request that will enable the state to access developmental funds to install solar power panels in 172 public schools and 11 primary health centres in the first phase . ” He said the request would not affect the original budget size of N 489.69 billion passed by the House for the year . “ We have discovered that there are still unutilised provisions by some MDAs, which may remain so till year end . “ Hence we are proposing to move such provisions to where they are more urgently needed to enable the state government address pressing needs in the areas identified above and other areas like security, housing etc , ” he said. Fashola further said the re - ordering would urgently address some of the critical unbudgeted expenditure requests by various ministries , departments and agencies . “ We have received requests aggregating to the sum of N 79 302 billion but will clearly be unable to accommodate most of these request this year , ” he stressed . The House , after deliberating the request, asked its committee on Economic Planning and Budget to look into the it and report back to the House on Thursday due to its urgency. 6 Likes

A total disaster just because of dumb and shortsighted followership. I was hoping Fashola's policy would be the beginning of the needed revolution in tertiary education. A philipino nurse walks right from a Manila hospital straight into a British hospital while the Nigerian nurse would either have to take a 3 yrs degree or a bridging course. A South African teacher also has the same advantage while our Phd would have to undergo retraining. What is the use of half baked graduates who end up doing clerical work in the banking /telecoms industry ,the job of a technician in the oil industry and non- jobs in the civil service ?Money is being pulled from other sectors in order to satisfy the short-sightedness of a small section of the society. Nigeria makes a mockery of university education. The crooked and socially useless lecturers need that high population of half baked for their handout businesses to prosper. The people I respected the most were those students who ran businesses to pay their way through school.the barber,hair dresser,kabu kabu,photocopier ,photographer etc. Those people are actually the only ones who know the true value and cost of education just like all those western nations. . I just hope the next governor of Lagos state will go in and jack up the standards.From entry requirements ,graduation requirements to the outright banning of the sale of handouts. Also ,getting foreigners to set and mark examination will be a good idea. You can be sure of thing, ;he student population will reduce drastically. That way,you will get only those who belong within the four walls of a university . Full scholarships for indigens and bright disadvantaged students only. 23 Likes |

oduastates: A total disaster just because of dumb and shortsighted followership.yhu ve only put my thoughts to a well constructed speech....The average American has to go through stringent measures and savings to go to college...such as opening a trust fund from birth et al....its a price they pay to be at the forefront of all spheres of life on the global scale.....The earlier we realise this the better....I attended OAU..and I tell you my tuition was incredibly cheap but it was starkly glaring that we could be among the best in the world...If our teaching aids, infrastructure and projects were top class....funding and education are intrinsically knotted together...to get the wool of success....have you ever wondered the UK hives billions of dollars to nations and yet has the most expensive schools....same with the US and Co....we can only see the truth if we decide to be blind to our poverty empathy of an excuse!....cheers 3 Likes |
