Why Are We Doing This Now? By Ben Bruce. by KIP2013: 2:25pm On Jan 11, 2012
Let  us remind ourselves the  reason for this showdown.

It is just not about subsidy, I keep repeating this fact. It is about the following indices that make our govenrment big, wasteful  and ineffective:

Big and overblown  governments at all levels70 Ministers

Over twenty Special advisers (on what?)

Every minister is entitled to 4 Special Assistants

Senate President earns 88 Million Naira monthly

His Deputy Earns 55 Million Naira monthly

Senators take home 14 Million naira monthly

It takes 1.4 Billion naira to mantain the NASS annually (Rememeber what Sanusi said about  25% of our GDP is used to feed people who only sit Tuesday - Thursday)

Our Governors  exhibit such level of opulence  shunned by the richest nations in the world

Our 2012 budget has a deficit component to it. We are supposed to borrow about 1.6 TRILLION NAIRA. NASS will be paid from that!

Aso Rock will use  1 Billion of it to eat!

Aso Rock will use another 1 Billion to fuel generators.

The Vice President will use 58 Million Naira to buy newspapers

The Office of  Patience Jonathan will use 500 Million to speak rubbish that makes nosense to you. (Why does she need an office niether the Uk or USA wives have offices)

They will spend close to 500 Billion on International Travels

In 2012, some state governors will collect 100 as security votes MONTHLY

They will continue to enjoy immunity clause!

Our hospitals will have no drugs

Our schools will still have no quality to train a world class scholar

Our roads will still be death traps

We will still be a local government unto ourselves, providing our own water, security, power and  social security!

We will still pay more for petroleum products.

We will pay toll in 2012 on federal interstate roads.

If you will like this to continue in 2012, then stay at home and enjoy power as provided by PHCN!

Have a nice day!
