With barely six months to the end of the administration, the Plateau State Government has sent a supplementary budget of N23.4bn to the state House of Assembly for consideration and approval.

In the proposed budget, according to the estimates obtained from the state House of Assembly on Thursday, supply and fixing of curtains, blinds, customised cutleries and other items at the new Government House would be awarded to a foreign firm at the cost of N442, 289, 600.00.

Road networks, purchase of official vehicles and other projects at the new Government House at Little Rayfield are also expected to gulp N4.2bn.

Other items to be covered by the supplementary budget are procurement of a Toyota Land Cruiser model vehicle for the Chief Judge of Plateau State, at the cost of N25, 625, 675. 68 and a Toyota Corolla for the Chief Registrar, Plateau State Judiciary, at the cost of N7, 545, 398, 68.

Also, the completion of existing road projects all over the state, the office of the SSG at the new Government House and provision of infrastructure and office equipment at the new office of the Board of Internal revenue is expected to gulp N13bn, while N1.5bn was budgeted to the state water board.

The rest of the estimates computed and collated from all ministries, agencies and departments of government were put at N12, 400, 979, 524. 00.

The Commissioner for Information and Communications, Mrs. Olivia Dazem said that the budget was born out of the need to complete existing projects before the exit of the present administration.

She said, “In view of the need to meet additional developmental efforts of the present administration in project execution, a supplementary budget in respect of some ministries, agencies and departments have become very necessary.”

Most gov do budgeted for bizzare and funny things. What do you have to say about governors in south west making budget for amala and ewedu while their counterparts in the north are doing the same for pap durring the month of ramadam.

Jonah jang will not be forgotten by the people of jos. In 8 years he delivered quality capital projects worth every penny spent on them. No amount of media propaganda can change the good this man has done

A culture of waste that the next generation has sadly imbibed. We are all guilty of letting this be the norm.

see what this politicians has turn to, no since in their skull

Nah bro....we're already leading.....

Information like this is disheartening but at times I feel they are irrelevant. Reason being that many at times we'll just comment on it without being able or doing any thing to stop is furtherance. If we can do something to stop this. I'll start taking folks here serious, me inclusive.

thieves

The governor's wife is probably 'preparing' money for life after government house. PDP wasting money since 1999.

Like if I got the spelling right

PDP, raping Nigeria without condom since 1999

Until we stand up and say enough! Thats how we will keep hearing news like this. If this kind of news is not enough to anger anyone, nothing else will. For all those saying "it's none of my business". It is your business, and it is your money and someone is spending it anyhow. 25 million for one person to buy a car at the expense of the Govt? Look at the kind of things listed, curtains? It is like they were looking for ways to just make the money accumulate, lets add plates, add spoon, add pin. Am literally pulling my hair out right now. The expense of running the Govt. Is toooooo much. Can you imagine how many schools, hospitals, roads, libraries and other infrastructures this money could provide? And when countries like South Africa and Ghana address us as fools we complain. Is this not madness? Are we anything less than fools for letting something like this happen? Do you even have food? And someone is spending that much on just plates and spoons with money that belongs to you and I. Dammit.

Ewwww! Nigeria is carried o.

Why are y'all bad mouthing? Don't you see that they have plans to design the Government house to super-palatial status? Abeg leave 'em o.

The money is even too small as a matter of fact. Nansense.

After reading that news online, tears just dropped off from my eye's.
Eachtime I think of home (NIGERIA) and the type of news emanating from that part of the world I just ask myself- Is Nigeria allergic to goodnews?
