This article's title is misleading.

The prof made his comments before PMB even presented the budget, and all he "slammed" was the entire historical budgeting process and implementation in Nigeria, not PMB's budget.

Sensationalist OP.

Dumb and chronic brain disordered wailers read the Title and wail... they don't even know that indirectly the prof said the past administration never implemented the budget.. they only read it and loot the money.. ekpa people

I read the article and I know he made the statement even before the president presented the budget to the joint NASS.

I just don't see how implementation of this budget will be different from previous ones.

Bloody Ekpa.. unlike you foolish Hero Jona, Buhari is not a kleptomaniac

 Utomi spoke on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Tuesday morning, few hours before the presentation of the budget by President Muhammadu Buhari before a joint session of the National Assembly. He said the issue is not about making luxurious budget but argued that the major deterrent is always implementation.

Pat Utomi has proffered a valid critic; far better that PDP's. PDP just blew hot without communicating their position. However given Buhari's 5% and 95% mind-set this budget is doomed for failure. If 95% of the amount devoted for infrastructure development in this budget is spend according to the mind-set of this president then Nigeria is finished. Much of it will simply be embezzled by APC politicians from the North and there will be no body to question them because Buhari can never allow a free elections where Nigerians will vote their choice candidates. By the way the amount devoted to power. Is it for staff salaries or logistics or what. It will cost not less than $1 billion for 500MW of turbine station. Perhaps the basis of this budget is to have more of the power generated from private investment.

Embezzle what? see this ekpa.. guess u know who Is the minister of works and housing? And guess Uve read his CV... . You've not then stop opening your foolish and dirty mouth to spit trash

I am sure you read my post with a prejudiced mind. I have utmost respect for Fashola. He is a bright mind and the type we need in any level of governance in Nigeria. Can you please compare Fashola with that individual at the pinnacle of power. Fashola will never treat his citizens on the basis of partisan affiliation not to mention declaring an intension to do so before an international audience. At least we can tell this from his political foot prints. My point is that statutorily Buhari is responsible for spending over 50% of the budget including the part of it financed with borrowed money. The constitution does not impose any restrictions on how and where he spends it. Therefore for a president with such depraved mind-set it should sink in your head that much of the money will be stolen by those sycophants singing lullabies of ''Buhari is great and incorruptible'' all around him. I know most of you APC supporters are on default response mode and don't really think through before responding to anything. But my advise is that you watch it because when the chips are down the entire country will bear responsibility for any missteps of today.

See the reason why the Senate was/is deliberating on that bill that would make journalists and media folks accountable to their write-ups? That way, people would try to do their work well. The article in this post is clearly misleading, I don't know if that was done intentionally or not.

What Pat Utomi said was clearly before the budget was presented. He was even talking about Buhari's budget presentation but budget presentation as a whole in Nigeria. See how the author of this article just lied against Pat Utomi.

Why did you insult this man that made a logical comment with fact. Don't come on social media to spit tantrum, it may backfire on you.
Make your counter-point and go.

Exactly.

They were caught napping by PMB with an unprecedented budget the likes of which PDP had never seen during all the oil boom years.

They cannot fathom how PMB did it without much oil money.

They look at 6 trillion and wail that not a kobo will they benefit, as against when their rapacious appetite ate budget after budget.

They also sense their doom in this budget, as there's hope for Nigeria.

If 50% of this budget is implemented, it'd still be bettter than their misadventures.


Seeing APC has the financial possibilities of implementing some of the promised change, PDP is jittery.

If PMB implemented the budget and Nigerians are happy, through what cracks would PDP infuse their odorous propaganda?

Suddenly 2019 is looking not so good for them.

Whoever the op is is also a joke.

Utomi said the budget process is a joke not Buhari is a joke.

He also appeared on the said programme before Buhari presented the budget to the Assembly.

Utomi's reason for saying the budget process was a joke is based on the non-implementation of parts of the budget caused by weak leadership.

Op needs to go back to school to upgrade his/her reading and comprehension skills.

Thanks for the analysis

So wailers will not read and jump into conclusion

Lol.

It's been obvious for a while. There is no basis behind the numbers. People just make rough estimates based on last year and capital projects which have the numbers already written down.. No research into maintenance or even implementation of fiscal policies via the budget to stimulate the economy.. They have no ideaidea what the far reaching implications are of spending too much or too little in certain areas. No communication between relevant sectors.

Ben Murray Bruce speaks:
"When electricity improved in June it wasn't Jonathan's fault but when there's fuel scarcity in December it's his fault"
He is not done yet. Hear the senator as he continues:
I read all the stories about me not smiling in photos, but how can I be smiling when my people sleep in fuel stations and a dollar is ₦270?
How ridiculous! Are we going to be told Jonathan is responsible for harmattan and my neighbor's wife's miscarriage?
