Justfollowit: Sorry dear, I still don't believe you're in Nigeria. Remember I said 'I remember you'? I do not want to ask you if you voted. I still may not have the time to scan the web for APC's electoral promises. We'll do that some other day. But the heat generated by APC's social welfare package should be strong enough to let anybody understand that it was one of their major campaign promises. Osibanjo sef carried am for head. Osun State cannot be justified if the State Government gambled away the salaries of his staff for free meal to children, children whose parents may not necessarily be part of the State Civil Service. The Federal Government complaining? Is it their money? Then this statement you made: If the quality of education in Nigeria is to be improved, we need to make every school a community school using Ikenne Community School as an example. It will reduce the overall cost of education, it will increase students' zeal to study, improve teachers' efficiency and ensure accountability of education funds. I do not understand how it relates to free meals per day. Please explain. 1 Like |

kaboninc Thank God you can see the benefits in feeding and educating our children. It should be a right for every Nigerian child to get 1 warm meal per day. Countries without oil are doing this, so Nigeria can also achieve this. I do not support the 5,000 per month cause it will not have any meaningful impact on our unemployed population. As for the funding for the feeding program, you'll be shocked at the amount of funds the international community will give to Nigeria as aid to ensure such a program is successful. |

barcanista: My advice to you is to take a chill pill and wait till December before you start criticising. More over you don't have enough information about our multiple sources of income to make informed opinion, leave those that made the to fulfil their promises. As an opposition you should wait for them to start their tenure before you criticise. No wonder APC want to give you guys a crash course in playing opposition. Kudos to Obiageli for her write up,. 1 Like |

kaboninc: I am not in Nigeria but I supported him Did you actually read what I typed on Osun Government and the federal government? I was thinking about how the quality of education in Nigeria can be improved. For the free meal, I already gave my stance on it. It is not viable. |

[quote author=Mykevp2p post=32901902] I only want to talk about the issue of FIRS (my understanding) because I think that NNPC is a mafia like organization that need a thorough reorganization. 1. NNPC, from the amount the raise from the sell of crude, also pay tax to FIRS. Good she missed this part, NNPC does what they call remittance, a lot of receipts including the one you mentioned, even her assumed 60% is collected by NNPC on behalf of the FG, before she can effectively calculate it, she must know what percentage goes to the FIRS as TAX from NNPC, without that fact, she is just playing, good observation!! OP Take note of another point you missed and revise your initial post
She has mentioned FIRS earning, it doesn't matter how they got it except where it replicates a template she based her analysis on, like your point above. 3. FIRS retain certain % of their revenue just like CBN, customs etc (how legal this is, I don't know but it is a fact) I think she drew evidence from what FIRS remitted to the FG, hence it is safe to assume she accomodated that deduction. The amount, 9.76 trillion cannot be true. This is in addition to external reserve saving, Excess crude account and SWF. Nigeria has not earned Excess crude revenue since August last year or probably since this year to be safe, why is it necessary for her to include it? SWF?? I just hope you know what that means only your first point is valid. |

Why are people showing this level of ignorance. The school feeding scheme will be a kind of collaboration between the three tiers of government. It's just an enhancement of what Osun state is currently doing. I think its financially feasible but there are other implementation modus oparandi that must be finetuned, otherwise the usual Nigeria factors could bungle down. 1 Like |

Justfollowit: So I was right. You're not in Nigeria. But am not denying you the benefit of knowing what's on ground but it would have been best if you also witness it. I read what you typed on Osun State and the Federal Government. My response was: The Federal Government complaining? Is it their money? The Federal Government cannot complain on how the State spends her money. The quality of education can be improved in so many ways but not through free meals. Free meals can only help to encourage children to come to school. A good thing you said it is not viable. |

Re: Buhari's Social Program: Very Possible. by kaboninc(m): 10:01am On Apr 20, 2015 |
trillville: I see the benefits but what about the opportunity cost? For the fact that a certain program has benefits doesn't make it the best alternative. Secondly, brother, it is not and should not be a right for every Nigerian child to be fed per day. It is best and safe to say that it should be the right for every Nigerian child to be educated up to secondary level. This too can be contested. We should stop belittling ourselves in the eyes of the International Community. They should not give us fish but teach us how to fish! |

Obiagelli: It is not possible and not juast because of the cost involved, but because it is wasteful. Buhari said he is going to run a lean government. He has even said he plans to remove the fuel subsidy. The cash handouts to peopel are called conditional cash transfers and have been used in such countries as Brazil and Mexico. It is usually given to women with children. |
