How does this government begin to even convince us that it saved the nation such exorbitant amount when her 2016 budget is replete with errors, duplications and frauds so massive that reading through the items analysed by various media made one tremble in shame at the outright lack of attentiveness that was invested into its preparations? How can you be so grossly incompetent in one aspect and then claim you are opposite in another?
For a President who embodied the image of military discipline and asceticism, this budget deconstructs and demystifies him. [B] From the way the budget was presented and withdrawn amidst lies and denials, a lot has been going wrong suggesting poor administrative capability. [/B]
...
We do not need the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Muhammed, to come up with another excuse to cover sheer incompetence.

Wow! This is spot on op. I wish I could write like this. You said the economy is broke, you want to raise money inwardy, hence you increase tax, increase electricity tarrif, started deduction of postal whatever from all bank deposit, thereby making life hader for the average Nigerian. Yet you presented a budget to spend 215mill naira on kitchen utensils, 515mill naair to maintain cars in you convoy. Cars that's not driven outside Abuja. The amount of money to be used to buy books for the vice president office is about 4 million naira, whereas the amount to buy books for 11 out of 22 federal polytechnics is about 3milion naira.

As a president,you can't cut these things off?? U want to spend 315 million naira to build a VIP wing in Aso Rock clinic! A clinic that when u are sick, you will not go to be treated. Instead you will be flown abroad. It's just funny how things are in this country. Dunno why one person can't just come up and be our Nelson Mandela, to give selfless service and better the lots of Nigerians.

Well am not surprised anyway. If you tell lies to attain power, you will need more lies to keep the power.

Reference:


Once again. Nigerians did not vote him to tell them who they are, truthfully or lie to them. They put him there 'to do' and not 'to say'. That is the yardstick they choose to measure him now. Promised change. Their pastors and Imams do that heads-up stuff week in, week out.

I took sometime to read this piece and some points the writer highlighted. However, the writer failed to give us empirical facts to counter issues she raised. For example, if she says, that TSA amount is not up to N2.2 trillion, so what is the actual figure? Until you tell nigeria the actual figure and your source, then in my own opinion I she have committed thesame crime she accused the Govt of doing. Secondly, I am left with no choice to say she has been paid to write this nonsense.

Anybody that finish reading this article and keep on shouting wailing wailers need serious help, we need to tell ourselves the truth buhari is not getting it right and the sooner we let him know the better. This budget brouhaha can only mean two things, it is either buhari is extremely corrupt or he is not in charge and both scenario is not good for us the citizens.

The money spent by your parents to educate you was very well spent. Well done for a very on point post.

I simply can't understand the mindset of some Nigerians. How bad do things need to get before they will accept that Buhari is getting things VERY wrong. According to them all of the below are not Buhari's fault.

Over 5 months to appoint ministers. Not Buhari's fault.
Refusal to obey court judgements. Not Buharis fault
Not one presidential visit to victims of BH since this govt came to power. Not Buhari's fault
Attempted MASSIVE corruption in the 2016 Budget. Not Buhari's fault.
After 8 months no policy framework for the economic downturn. Not Buhari's fault.

So please tell us, what exactly is Buhari's responsibility as President??

And please it's time to drop the tired argument of 'Was GEJ any better...blah blah' GEJ LOST THE ELECTION. BUHARI IS THE PRESIDENT NOW AND THE BUCK STOPS WITH HIM. THAT'S HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS.

With this statement in answer to this unbiased and inspiring post I am beginning to believe in the touted Aisha rice syndrome and e-rat. Thank God I am not in Nigeria.
God bless the Writer and the Op and God make ways for those living in Nigeria and support truth. It is well.

sirwisy2580:


if u can't see now I wonder when. an open minded n educated mind will embrace truth not fact.
my sincere advice read the article again n make some research for itself ooooo.
...My idea about great leaders is that dey speak less n do more. criticism is for the lower class leader...
