The way we run things in this country is just too horrible. Everyone looks for money at any little opportunity.17b to pass budget; this is just the one we heard, who knows how much they have been collecting before in the name of passing budget which is their primary duty. It is well.

Dont mind them. And when you arrest the thieves now the usual suspects will start shouting witch hunting. Wailing is a terrible disease

That is why i keep on saying that corruption in Nigeria is 'OFFICIAL',that is why no Government can fight corruption.

Senator Rowland Owie, former Chief Whip of the Senate, has advised President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), to avoid former President Olusegun Obasanjo, if he desires to succeed as Nigeria’s leader. Owie, who gave the advice in a statement, yesterday in Benin City, Edo State, said: “To Buhari, I thank God for you, but you must deliver on your promises and also build on what President Goodluck Jonathan did. Above all, you must run far from Obasanjo. If he can’t control your government, he will fight you.

Sometimes I wonder why we should have a National Assembly when all they do is gallivant around and come to collect N13M every month end!!!!

Tufia to this country. wicked men in politics.

now I understand your problem, no formal education.I mean read and understand is your problem

Somebody will still blame Buhari for this news

You are worse criminal than they are.....



Why can't you grand stand them and help clean the system once and for all....



Short cut.... Cut short!

Nigeria needs a brand new democracy , this model is not working at all , Obasanjo messed it up from the onset when he started bribing the National Assembly and paying them like rockstars just to to have his selfish way and today they are used to it .... National Assembly should be the last place for self enrichment because in reality it is the foundation of any worthwhile democracy , get the National Assembly wrong get the democracy wrong.

I don't think most people understood what happened there

All they saw was 17bn

This kalokalo. Bet9ja way of playing politics. Give and take government.

I hope the additional 500billion added to this year budget by NASS is not for next year election.

God help us in this country

Get this woman arrested with all the people that are involved.. Mehn they have killed this country with stealing and corruption.

This is why buhari must not contest in 2019, this is why buhari is a terririst, this is why the anti corruption fight of this buhari government is fake, this is why this govt is tribalistic, this is the worst president in nigerian history because has refused to play game with nigerian money. buhari spend this money in bribing the national assembly so as to approve your budget. You have refused to bribe national assembly president buhari. why o why. pls play the game like PDP government and become my darling.

Winning123:
You can just imagine how much was paid in 16 years of PDP rule, including the time Obasanjo as he calls himself held sway. Funny many Igbos want PDP back.

The other day, I watched on television Obasanjo’s emissary handing over documents to Buhari on power infrastructure developed by his think tank, an action that made me laugh profusely. How could someone who spent $16b on power without achieving anything when he was President bring a proposal on that matter to anybody! While I would not advise Buhari to repay Obasanjo in his own coins, I would advocate that he should not allow him to be distracting him."

Na wa o na to download and read?

Wtf! Where are the freaking Tanoids of those days.

David Mark, thunderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrffffffffffffffirrrrrrrrreeeeee!

I dont think 80% of those who commented read what she said, lazy youths. If Goodluck had chosen to play hardball, they would not pass the budget which would have been disastrous. About #500B or so was added to this years budget before it was passed, which is the usual pay off. If you think its about Goodluck and Buhari, then u must be a fool

You no insult Buhari today
Soon every tongue shall confess that Jesus is lord

It's called lobbying. Do you know what is in it for the Executives? It's a global approach of getting things done.

This Mama don finish Jonathan

declaro:
I think Okonji Iweala should be the first female Nigerian president, what do you think?

Someone that was ransomed and involved in bribing the NASS??
You funny sha

All politicians are the same. They all lobby and receive kickbacks.

declaro:

I think you are silly.

For you to agree to do that instead of resigning to save your name means you're not different from those thieves. Honestly somethings are better left unsaid.

Okonji Iweala don finish Senator David Mark, ( former senate president ) Tambuwal ( former speaker house of representative )

These legislators were forming HOLY HOLY

But Madam Gele don expose them.

BREEZE BLOW FOWL YANSH OPEN!
