That's kind-of true... Buh buhari still needs to cut many unnecessary things in dat budget

This post makes no sense

Dullards every where on this Nairaland..

They cannot even spot the difference between $4Tr and N6Tr??

awon olodos!!

OP if you're confused please don't come and confuse other people as well. Obama's budget is 4 trillion dollars which is very much in line with his budgets from previous years. Buhari's budget is 6 trillion NAIRA (that's about 20 billion dollars). It's about 2 trillion naira higher than Jonathan's last budget which did not capture all of the federal govt's spending.
There was a very high rate of extra budgetary spending under Jonathan. Through the TSA programme Buhari is trying to ensure that every single naira spent by his govt is captured in the budget.
The principle is good but unfortunately this budget is extremely padded because they failed to implement their zero budget plan effectively.
