President Muhammadu Buhari has rejected a N750,000 package for each player of the Golden Eaglets squad, that won the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Chile.

According to reports, the presidency claimed the budget was “too much”.

This week, Buhari’s government warned that next year will be rough for the country, as the economy is expected to get worse. In trying to contain that, government spendings will be cut down drastically.
“The proposal has been reviewed after the first rejection. We wait for the green light from the presidency on the date for the reception and the reward,” an official of the Ministry of Sports disclosed to AfricanFootball.

A much lower proposal of N150,000 per player, has now been sent by the Sports Ministry.

Great...in a country when N5,000 has been proposed for youths and they are expectant.
N150,000 is a better proposal; equivalent of Lecturer 1 monthly salary

He maintains the presidential fleet with billions of naira for his silly junketeering that has not brought any meaningful gains to Nigeria b Ur he can pay the people that put smile on our faces during this crunch times

He should first start with d senate idiots budgeting billions of N just for official cars. This Eaglets did d nation proud nd he is shoutin their pay is too much, the senators that have been looting the nation dry and are still free to do more looting. Poli-thief-cians.

Ask those who witnessed his rule between 1983 to 85, they will tell the rest of the story.

150,000 for a world conquering team

I cannot understand why this govt is becoming more and more heartless day by day !!!
There's always a cry of no money when there is a call for anything that will affect positively the lives of poor nigerians, but when it comes to junketting from Iran to Iraq, from Malta to Maltina the money is always available.

Dull government with poverty mentality trying to inflict more impoverishment ot it citizens.

Buhari is a poverty oriented Leader!!!

Go and check his record!!!

"A man that Live his best for his time has lived for all times"
"A man that sees himself wise in his own eyes, A fool has more hope than him"
"A man that delibrates fully before taking a step will spend his entire life on one Leg"

Someone should pass these words to Buhari
