The 2016 budget presented by Oshiomhole to the House of Assembly last year has continued to generate controversy over issues the PDP and most members of the public tagged a budget of deceit and misappropriation . A cursory look at the budget shows that Oshiomhole intends to spend N=1,400,000,000.00 on tea and recharge cards. Although the APC through its Deputy Governor dismissed the claim by the PDP and urged members of the public to discountenance anything from the PDP but what is surprising is that the deputy governor failed to deny whether such amount of money has been budgeted for tea and recharge card or not. Angry reactions from citizens has continued to trail the budget and the government also unable to put up a good defense. Other areas of the budget that have also draw criticism is N1,700,000,000.00 for feeding, drinks and ticketing for the governor’s family while N=2,550,000,000.00 was budgeted for fueling of governors convoy and DTA for governor’s trip within the country and Of course the contentious security vote of =N=5Billion with the hope of increasing it in a supplementary budge. The irony of this budget is that the government hopes to spend a paltry sum of N300m in Agriculture while billions were budgeted for frivolities. How the Comrade governor intend to defend this budget remains to be seen particularly now that his government failed to realise most of the things budgeted for last year.
