You cannot curse me over a man that supritended over the killing of over 800 shias in cold blood and one that has been clearly partial in the dispensation of justice as regards killer Herdsmen ... If Buhari is complicit in anyway in the current Fulani killer herdsmen episode and you know in your hearts of hearts he has been protecting them then may it never be well with him and all his supporters

Absolute nonsense coming from gej stooges. Even dasuki children dey sleep sometimes unlike this one that spend 24 hrs on nairaland insulting buhari on every topic. I repeat, which illegal business you dey do wey buhari STOP? grin He has now switched from "that puts guns in the hands of herdsmen to kill innocent people" to "buhari is complicit". Even at that, if buhari is complicit, may his end be miserable, but if not, may you and your entire household live extremely miserable lives and die of terrible disaster leading to burning alive.

Another nonsense coming from them again. They will see one thing but call it the other, and they shamelessly do so. From this report, it should have been clear to the cursed idiotic pigs of biamumus that money was being paid to NASS by their ineffectual boofoon to get budget passed, another clear indication that budget padding has been their business only to be discovered in buhari's first budget. But trust the cursed tribe potopoto descendants, they will rather understand it upside down, so I am not surprised.

Not surprised. GEJ is a confused mugu. I now understand why they are holding Buhari to ransom on the budget.


Some of us reason with our asses instead of our mind. I hope that some of us will be privileged to find ourselves in a leadership position one day in order to understand what it means to negotiate or lobby. Someone in the course of negotiations agreed that his take home or money he is entitled to be cut down by 13%. Thirteen percent of 50billion naira is what? Let me calculate...... wow, I got it. It is 19.5 billion naira. Later, the legislators realized they have been raped by the federal government decided to turn the table around to their advantage in a legitimate way, it is not illegal. The money was not paid without been accounted for....even up to date, money is still been provided for political parties. The legislators in an attempt to get their money back demanded that they include in the budget 20 billion naira as election expenses. The federal government negotiated it down to 17B naira....in the course of that, the federal government got 1.5 billion naira from their yearly provision in the annual budget for the legislators and you my brother, you are calling it corruption. We are trying to find fault with the actions of the previous administration but forget that they are no longer in power. We forget that the ministers then agreed that their basic salaries and other allowances be cut down by 50 percent....did you hear that? How much have the current ministers sacrificed, nothing. We were promised before the election that their salaries will be reduced but after the election, we began to hear another story different from what we were told. Be wise my friend.

Another lame attempt by corruption defenders.
So if 13 percent of whatever rubbish of 50b is their cut, which one is 150bn they were given? Abi ur eye no see dat one? So which one is election expenses again that diplomacy had to be used to reduce from 20bn to 17bn?
I agree with you, there is the need to stop reasoning with asses because the rubbish posted up here must have come from a rectum.

When you see stories like this, how can anyone possibly wonder why people are leaving Nigeria in droves? The very people that make laws for Nigeria are stealing the country blind and we are talking about sacrifice??
How the heck can Nigeria EVER develop when all 3 arms of government are made up of criminals?? They rape and pillage the country and they do not even leave crumbs for the masses.

The saddest part of the story is that instead of stoning these vagrants that call themselves senators and government officials, we applaud them. Some people on this thread are even justifying these thieving senators!

Our senators both Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa and other tribes are UNITED in stealing from Nigeria but yet we will come on Nairaland and call ourselves derogatory names like afonja, flat head etc!! We are indeed our own WORST enemies

I do not curse my country but Nigeria will NEVER develop as LONG as these criminals remain in power.

If oil price is rising why has the exchange rate not dropped?
Did Buhari not promise to reduce the exchange rate?
Are you saying that Buhari did not know what he was talking about on the campaign trail or he has been crazily stealing our money?

Budget padding was discovered for the first time, thanks to pmb for stopping the usual business, and since then, it is only in the cursed imagination of roaming animals from yisreal that padding still exists. I know their reasoning, always from their asses.

After the discovery, what did superman Buhari do?
He made it worse as a thief himself.

NaijaEfcc:
The Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, OSGF, in 2017 appropriated and claimed to have spent N65 million on its website.

PREMIUM TIMES review of the 2017 budget performance of the OSGF revealed that N65 million was budgeted for the already existing website while the office claimed that N64, 855, 875, the amount released, had been fully utilised.

Quoted as ‘OSGF WEBSITE,’ the budget performance record remarked that the ‘procurement process is ongoing.’

The office of the SGF is currently occupied by Boss Mustapha who was appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari in October 2017. The office was formerly occupied by Babachir Lawal who was sacked after President Buhari adopted recommendations of a report of a panel headed by the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, which investigated allegations against Mr. Lawal who was suspended for months.

PREMIUM TIMES could not ascertain which of the two government officials executed the project.

Appearing before the Senate committee in January 2018 to defend the 2017 budget performance, Mr. Mustapha said the office received 50 per cent of its appropriation for capital projects.

“Performance for capital is N1.2 billion released as at end of December, 2017. It represents 50 per cent. We are hoping that the National Assembly will extend the lifespan of the budget so that we can handle other procurement processes.

Apparently, the fund release for the website is one of those captured in Mr. Mustapha’s 50 per cent but the cost and execution of the project left more to desire.

Spokesperson to Mr. Mustapha, Mohammed Nakorji, when contacted, declined to answer PREMIUM TIMES’ questions on how the fund was disbursed.

“I’m not an accountant please,” he snapped.

Meanwhile, technology experts say the claim was suspicious and impossible.

After a review of the website, communications officer of Paradigm Initiative Nigeria, PIN, Sodiq Alabi said the claim that N65 million was spent on the website looked ‘very impossible.’

“We have reviewed the website, it is simply shocking that N65 million was spent on the website. It’s implausible,” he said. “OSGF must provide more details on what they did with the money. The website has no special features to justify more than a million naira budget.

“It doesn’t look like they are even updating the website. The copyright is 2013. It looks very impossible and suspicious. At least the SGF office should tell us what they did with the money. They should tell us what they did with the money so that Nigerian tax payers’ mind can be at rest.”

Cheta Nwanze, Head of Research, SBM Intelligence, after a review of the website, said the N65 million could never be justified.

He said, “The website was built using the Joomla CMS, which is a free content management system. All of the media is hosted on YouTube, which is an external server. It uses Google Hosted Libraries for its content distribution. No way can it cost ₦65 million, unless I heard you wrong.”

He said the maximum cost for such a website would be $105 per month.

“Depending on the hosting package, $100 per month can get you a very good hosting plan. If you insist on using Google apps to host your emails and documents, that’s $5 per user per month. So you can do the maths.”
