Now There Is No Money To Run Government – Amaechi by Omooba77: 7:17am On May 25, 2016
Abuja – The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi on Tuesday appealed to Nigerians to be patient and give the administration more time to achieve its objectives.

Making the appeal while answering questions at the forum of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, Amaechi said:


“We encountered challenges; were we expecting to encounter those challenges? yes; did we think that we will meet the quantum or volume of those challenges?

“We didn’t anticipate that things were this bad. We thought you go to government and there would be money for you to run government and others.

“Now you have the situation where there is no money to run government. I hate to use the word difficult; I hate to use the word impossible but we met things close to difficult and impossibility.

“That is why Nigerians are impatient; they want to see results and for them, change is not about change in structure, it is about change in their pocket.

“Because their pocket is getting dried and they wanted us to put some more resources in their pocket.

“Because of the structural changes that we want to put in place is not getting all that they want to get.

“ What I usually say to people is that we beg you to give us time; we will achieve our objective if you give us time and we will both thank God for that opportunity.’’

He gave an assurance that money recovered from the ongoing corruption fight, would be used to provide infrastructure.

According to him, the government has started paying contractors not appointed by the current administration, noting that such action represents service delivery to the people.

Honestly, we have to be mindful of our utterances. The other day it was Fashola who during Jonathan time said that a good government should provide electricity for his people within six months. Now as the Minister, the word is now staring at him. Today it is Amaechi, who as the Chairman of the then Governors' forum resisted savings for the rainy day. The rain has started falling.

Re: Now There Is No Money To Run Government – Amaechi by Nobody: 9:06am On May 25, 2016
Actually, Nigeria has been broke since independence.....because our sources of revenue have been based on the sale of raw materials...whose prices we DO not control.

In the 1960's it was agric. When that failed in the 1970's....we turned to oil. Oil has failed us twice...in the 1980's and today.

The truth of the matter is that Nigerians should wake up and realize that we do not have the money....and the basis of our revenue generation is always in danger of being hit by fluctuations in the price of the things we sell. The minute we wake up to that .....the better.

So...time we left that oil alone...and became a strong manufacturing economy by spending more on power , transport and education....and less on useless government jamboree welfare projects.It is time we woke up to the fact that there is no free ATM dispenser of money. We have to work for it by developing an innovative manufacturing based economy.....not an oil based economy.
