� *ZJ0*: *NUC budgets N8m for research, N85m to purchase vehicles*

The National Universities Commission has budgeted N8m for research and development in 2018, while N85m is also earmarked for the purchase of motor vehicles at the commission’s secretariat in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory. These figures were obtained by our correspondent from the 2018 budget proposal totalling N8.6tn, which was presented by President Muhammadu Buhari about two weeks ago.

The total expenditure for the NUC in 2018 is N4,122,549,530, out of which the salary bill is N1,434,223,306. Under the maintenance services, the commission proposed to spend N3,357,885 on the maintenance of office furniture, while the maintenance of office buildings and residential quarters would gulp N60,075,664.

It was gathered from the budget proposal breakdown that the commission plans to spend N9,739,246 on the maintenance of generators at the secretariat. Under the capital expenditure section, the commission allocated N85,351,433 for the “purchase of motor vehicles.”

What should be their priorities in the first place?

National Universities Commission more concerned about cars?
9 million for generator maintenance
8 million for research; that's barely $22000
85 million for cars.

Who's in charge of this budget proposal?
