I guess PMB was sleeping when he made the statement...

comment seconded

seems APc shitheads can't defend dere Daura President anymore foolish ppl voted for a fraud change.

nickxtra:
Even if that's d case, you think between May 29 and now Nigeria has not made income? Reason before you comment

some people comment before they reason

don't get it twisted
its common on NL

Think about it. Does you getting your monthly salary mean you have savings and assets?

The government's revenue does not cover recurring expenses anymore since the fall in revenue from oil hence savings has been depletes just to meet recurring expenses to the extent the last government had to borrow to pay salaries.

Danger here is the revenue shared is not enough to save after recurring expenses or even spend on capital expenditure.

I know you may not like buhari, I don't but all this petty abuse is ridiculous and shows how we are not one country.

Mogidi:
I thought Buhari met an empty treasury?

olasmith10:



wao, so u saw d treasury too..

how did u know he met 0.75?

how did you know he didnt?

Mogidi:

He didn't say the treasury is empty.

olasmith10:
Good thing is allocations won't b shared with sentiments again!!!

Was it shared with sentiments before?

PassingShot:
Seriously, many people on this forum need to go back to school and get quality education.

So, the fact that PMB may have indeed met "virtually empty treasury" now translates to no money to run the country?

Learn to put words into contextual meaning. "Virtually empty" may actually mean far less than what was expected.

And the fact that Nigeria has earned more money every blessed day since May 29 is enough to have money to share again.

he shld hav used anoda word instead of d word empty. Wen u empty a bucket filled wit water wat else remain ?

lumzybo:
To all those guys saying empty treasury, wake up from ur slumber. YES he culd av met empty treasure the money shared myt be from the money realised sinx PMB assumed office. We shldnt forget the fact that Nigeria make money on a daily basis from the sales of crude and other things.

Pls lecture them oo. The nation makes money on a daily basis,sales of cruede oil, VAT and coy taxes, and others. What PMB met was empty reserve, but since may 29, Govt has made some more money

..so u mean GEJ went to to Central bank with many Lorries and made away with all the money in the treasury...Naija and their wild imaginations sha

lumzybo:


It possible he emptied the treasury sinx he knew he was no longer the president. This is a possibility. Not that I believed what PMB said but our politicians always believe in wrecking havoc 4 the incoming government.

This is typical of an ousted politician. GEJ isn't an exception

olasmith10:


"almost empty treasury" go and read again!!!

where did he get $21billion to sponsor regional fight against boko haram.


Does $21billion sound like almost finished account?

are you saying fg made $21billion in 7days, that the money Buhari approved 2weeks ago

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/06/fg-others-share-n409-354bn/

[size=18pt]They need to increase the share given to states to 40%. It is quite over due.

The state governments carry the main burden of development in Nigeria today. FG and LGAs are just waste drain conduits on this country.[/size]

Did you read the news at all? The share was the money generated in may, now who generated that, GMB or GEJ?

InyinyaAgbaOku:


Ports and other federal revenue centres in lagos were built and maintained by FG, with oil money

Ignorance is bliss indeed, as at the late 70s oil was contributing less than 30% of total National revenue, by that time Lagos was already a great city, so how in your dreams did oil build Lagos?

will salary arrears be paid, ongoing projects completed, youths empowered or another avenue to amass wealth showcasing their irresponsibility towards the plight of thr masses? God help Nigeria

huptin:

Was it cocoa money that built the ports and had been maintaining them since then? Shift please. Federal government is only reaping what it sowed in Lagos

On the issue of Federal Government owing salaries, she dismissed the claim, saying that there was no agency nor ministry owed by Federal Government and expressed hope that states owing salaries would pay their workers accordingly after this FAAC meeting.

Interesting to know, APC keep on lying to your confused follwers

Your lies are no more fashionable. Get educated about government finances from the 70s, before you spew trash. You're too old to be lying like a chicken.

So many dullards in Nigeria, when PMB said he met empty treasury, dimwits can't interpret simple language. It's a pity.

Yes...is it impossible?

So after we empty the ECA to pay salary arrears, what next??

Mogidi:

What is the meaning of "virtually"?

Should he lie about meeting empty treasury? He should have said that the nation is broke.
No nation in the world, no matter how poor she is, that would have an empty treasury. Event GREECE doesnt have empty treasury.

I guess they are all birds of a feather.

The Daura President has just added a new na. He is a LIAR.
LIEING Daura President

Please this is English language.

Define virtually empty.

huptin:
So far VAT contributes about 46% of total government earnings and some idiots will be shouting that Lagos( which generates about 80% of the VAT) was built with oyel money. Mad people.

Lagos was once the capital of Nigeria for over 30 years so its quite normal to say that Lagos was built by Nigerians n oil money as well...Just like Abuja now.

chai!

Buhari and APC sabi lie sha

empty treasury and inherited huge dept, yet #409.354bn to be shared

these so called "agent of change" beta hit d ground running as promised, and stop giving excuses.

If the treasury was not virtually why did the Jonathan government have to bkrrow over 400 Billion Naira to pay April salaries? http://www.premiumtimesng.com/business/182543-nigerian-govt-borrowing-billions-to-pay-salaries-okonjo-iweala.html

ralph28:
See how this news vindicated GEJ,now we know that he left money in the treasury.

I don't understand vindicated GEJ. So if your father leaves 40million naira in his bank accounts and his owing banks 100million naira and few people some million. So your father do not leave you with nothing?

You be Olodo Lagos was once colonial head quarter. so Lagos has been in existence for over 100 years. Even when oil yet to be discovered.
