Demdem: She can be lying, she has lied several times even on live TV before and can still do it again.

vanstanzy: Does it mean that the House of RAPs' "Threat" of wanting to impeach GEJ will be possible? Just asking.

jmaine:

She did mention the constraint's of implementing new projects such as, the duration consumed in carrying out feasibility studies, after which you then proceed to the procurement phase which also takes time, before actual work commences

Didn't she mention those constraints ? . . .we need to stop exaggerating our personal opinions as fact . . .

next time, don't indulge everyone with your falsehood . . .

Demdem: To be honest, asking for 100% from these foools will be all over the top. being a realist here. Am encouraged that she said 56% has been achieved so far (july ending), thats not bad but wait a minute, what was this huge amount spent on? Lets see if the house will agree with her or not. She can be lying, she has lied several times even on live TV before and can still do it again.

chucky234: Guy what contraints are you talking about here,feasibility studies consume time?
The entire territory is familiar to all FG and state contractors so there is certainly no way a contract will put feasibility studies or procurement face as an excuse to cover their shortcomings,biggers contracts have been awarded to small companies in countries like Uganda,Kenya,Tanzani,bostwana and yet to delivered within the 12months time frame,how come this coming is yet to complete a single project in ovetr 12 months after spending close to 400 billion naira.

GEJ and his cohorts arer running this country dry and you are talking of contraints in carrying out feasibility studies in a familiar environment as an excuse for non implementation of a national budget

Guy park well jare

uncleb: One day Nigerians will wake up from their slumber and sentiments to confront these evil men and women their rightful place.

It is not practicable to achieve 100% budget implementation? I was deeply shocked when i heard this from aunty Ngo yesterday. it even baffles me that she wasn't even trying to explain to us that there are constraints and impediments, rather she merely told Nigerians that their government will not and cannot implement the budget to the latter.

But come to think of it, do they collect their salaries and allowances fully or not. am sure they even earn in excess of 100% because they steal and embezzle, but to put appropriate infrastructure in place, they are saying it cannot be achieved 100%.

Shai, these people no get shame. But if na from America where this madam come for some says this, yes, we all know what would have happened by now.

jmaine:

Na you suppose park well cos if you know something you go ask for clarification . . .

Most major budgetary infrastructural project are classified as Class A projects which requires statoutary feasibility studies called the EIA before the project can even commence . . . .

Now an assignment to you bruv . .Go and find out how longs it takes to accomplish a thorough EIA finding's, reviews, before been endorsed by the requisite regulatory agencies for the project to kick off . .

When you do, come back and address me . .

Dude, you are supposed to do feasibility before you include an item in your budget. How do you come up with a figure if feasibility has not being done? Besides [b]most of the budget is for ONGOING projects, so EIA is done already. [/b]Are all the projects in the budget new so called class A projects?

chucky234: Take out time to education yourself on revenue generation and process of budget implementation before coming out here display your deluded moronic post,the 56% is 340 billion naira but you should have asked yourself how much the country generate from taxes and sales of crude oil in seven months.

Your poor analysis of income outflow and inflow is pathetic, NOI and GEJ have no excuss not to implement 90% of the budget by Sepyember.

You are not even ashame to list contractor working on Lokoja-Abuja road in reference to the 2012 budget,most of those amount are paid 100% upfront even before the contractors mobilise their workers to site as that will afford them to overdraft the invoices and make huge money from the said contracts.

There are more evil going on in this govt than what we assumed.

tiarabubu: Madam NOI has a point.

Money inflows dont come in one go. Taxes are collected everyday - not once. Crude is exported every day - not once. The budget is based on anticipated income - not income in a bank. The MDA's capacity to spend is progressive. Eg the contractor working on Abuja - Lokoja Road works progressively and is paid as work is done. He is not paid up front or in bulk. Civil servants are paid salaries MONTHLY and by september only 75% of the salaries for the year would have been paid (ie 7/12 x 100)- they are not paid yearly. And considering that overheads are major component of the budget.

For these reasons, I think she has a point that its impossible to implement the budget 100% by September, unless the National Assembly and the Executive agreed on the programme of expenditure (i.e. quarterly or monthly) that they can hold on to, but then the variances in the inflows and outflows of revenue monthly will render that a guide at best.

I think its all politics. The national assembly is most likely mad at the Executive cos of the Facrook and Otedollar scandal which they see as being engineered by the Presidency. This shadow boxing is all horse trading. No sooner than later, a compromise will be found, Otedollar and Facrook will be given a soft landing and Nigerians will all be loosers yet again. Phew!

Billyonaire: I think the greatest enemy of many Nairalanders is understanding of English, NOI Stated:
On the reports that the lower legislative chamber wants President Jonathan to implement the budget 100% before September or be impeached, she said that “there is nowhere in the country where budget is implemented 100% by September” insisting that from her experience the least any country has done is 80%.
She did not say the administration will execute 80%, she said the least they can do is 80%, meaning, they will certainly execute between 80% to 99% by September.

keep queit. what do you know about running a government. The fact still remains that we do not see the things they see. If you are made the president of Nigeria tomorrow i bet you, you will not last a day. it is only when you are in there shoes that you will be able to fanthom what difficulties they are passing through.

jmaine:

Point one dude, I said most major Infrastructural projects are classified as Class A projects which require EIA . . .hope you didn't miss that part

off course not all budgetary implementation requires EIA if they don't involve massive structural construction . . .


Point two:- when new bids are advertised within a short stipulated period of time . .tendering bids has to deal with the estimated cost of the project's from experience and expertise . .it doesn't involve an EIA studies cos that alone can span several months . .

Point three : - Do you know what an EIA report entails ?, [b[with studies which might cater for both drying and raining season duration[/b] in ascertaining the level of environmental impacts Your project might cause

I made specific reference to the EIA
