Kogi lawmakers ask for 25 % of 2011 budget
From Shola Oyeyipo in Lokoja, 12.20.2010

In a reminder of the ongoing debate on National Assembly's share of the national budget, the Kogi State House of Assembly has demanded that not less than 25 per cent of the N85.5 billion budget for 2011 - which is N21. 375 billion - should be allocated to it. Speaker of the House, Chief Clarence Olafemi, made the appeal yesterday at the presentation of the 2011 budget to the House. He stated that "as a priority, we want an increase in the financial allocation to the house but which should not be below 25 per cent of the total budget of the state for both recurrent and capital expenses. "Like any other government establishment, the state Assembly is not immune to problems. Our problem as you may already known is poor funding. The money accruing for the management and running of both overhead and capital responsibilities is still grossly inadequate. "I must commend the understanding of my colleagues who continue to endure under a very critical condition to perform their legislative duties. There is no gain saying the fact that Honourable members need a decent accommodation to work." He, however, assured Governor Ibrahim Idris that the House was ready to pass the budget without delay, urging government officials to respond with dispatch to defend their sector allocations before the various committees.
