Nigeria Delta will suffer from budget cut, and 90% of the revenue will come from Niger Delta.

Bomb dey una head.

Unproductive north east did not get a budget cut, it's Niger Delta.

Almajiris don't want education before, so I am not surprised a nation is cutting education budget.

Health too... In a critical time when Covid-19 is ravaging the nook and cranny of the earth.

What a time to be a Nigerian
Blame your political leaders for looting the homongous amount of the monthly allocation to Niger-Delta.

This country is a joke,there is no need of slashing that of health care even with the health care shortage we are experiencing during this Convid.19 ,the still have guts to slash some fund from health care.

Anyways they really know what they are doing,just wait after this Convid.19 palava they will continue their medical trips abroad.So instead of investing that money on health care,they rather share the money for future medical trip abroad.

Lack of direction from the Nigerian govt. Reducing capital expenditure instead of recurrent. It could have been better to reduce salaries and allowances of public servant, suspended national assembly complex renovation etc

Personally, I think education and healthcare should be given heighest attention instead of cutting down their budgets in Nigeria.

[s]The slash in the Federal Government ’ s budget by about N 321bn would mostly affect projects to be implemented in the Niger -Delta, North - East, basic education, healthcare and other sectors of the economy.

The executive arm of government had on Wednesday sent a revised budget proposal to the National Assembly following a drop in crude oil prices which was caused by the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

In the revised proposal of the executive to the National Assembly , about N 321bn is being projected to be cut.

On the expenditure side , the executive is proposing a reduction of about N 321bn in spending from the initial estimate of N 10 . 59tn to N 10 . 27 tn.

An analysis of the executive proposal showed that the Niger - Delta Delta Development Commission suffered a huge cut of about N 51 . 36 bn from the N 80. 88 bn initially signed into law by the President to N 29 . 52 bn.

Statistics from the website of the NDDC showed that the commission had about 3 ,335 projects in the Niger - Delta region , while 1 , 403 projects had just been awarded.

For the North - East Development Commission , analysis of the revised budget proposal showed that the commission suffered a N 24 . 03 bn reduction in its allocation.

The commission saw its allocation reduced by 63 . 07 per cent from N 38 . 1 bn in the initially approved budget to N 14 . 07 bn.

The NEDC is the focal organisation charged with the responsibility to assess , coordinate , harmonise and report on all intervention programmes , and initiatives by the Federal Government for the North East states ; Adamawa , Bauchi, Borno , Gombe , Taraba and Yobe , respectively.

In the same vein , the Federal Government is proposing a cut of N 50 . 76 bn in the allocation of the UBEC from the initial N 111. 78 bn to N 61 . 02 bn.

Further analysis showed that there is a reduction in the basic healthcare fund by N 26 . 51 bn from N 44 . 49bn to N 17 . 98 bn.

Similarly , the proposal stated that the Federal Government was planning to reduce anniversaries/ celebrations by N 3 . 08 bn , computer software N 3 . 14 bn , office buildings N 24 . 86 bn , residential buildings N 479. 6 m, monitoring and evaluation N 10 . 8 bn , land acquisition N 1 . 45bn , computers N 1 . 9bn , purchase of motor vehicles N 5. 25 bn , and office furniture N 3 . 94bn.

Others are rehabilitation of office building N 49 . 52 bn , repair of residential buildings N 1 . 07 bn , research and development N 45 . 6 bn , provision of roads N 1 . 96 bn , provision of water facilities N 650m, provision of waterways N 650m, repair of public schools N 330 . 85m, and purchase of generators N 555 . 96 m.

There is also a reduction of N 176. 5m on purchase of motorcycles , computer printers N 151 . 48 m, photocopying machines N 131. 46 m, purchase of trucks N 134 . 46 m, purchase of buses N 485 . 78 m and purchase of scanners N 193 . 74 m.

The document also said there would be a reduction in road repairs by N 120 m, repairs of public school N 330 . 8m, gaming equipment N 100m, provision of agricultural facilities N 180m, and purchase of vans N 216. 2 m.[/s]
