It is not constitutional. However, I won't blame the president much considering the circumstances. The fact that the money was paid directly into the US government treasury and not to middle men also gives some level of confidence. It is now left for the national assembly to regularise the president's anticipatory approval by making provisions for it in the 2018 budget as requested by the president.
No one is looking at the fact that these negotiations were before Buhari and that Buhari decided to do away with middlemen and deal with Trump directly.

Wailers want us to rent Oritsejafor's plane,load with money and fly it directly to one American middleman with Nigerian connections.

It is impossible to misappropriate funds that hasn't been previously appropriated.

The NASS would've frustrated it if it went there first, it was a matter of emergency.

Maybe you were too young and didn't experience the wonders of PTF but some of us were old enough and benefited.

This is cheap blackmail by the executive. The US approval to purchase the aircraft was given since last year. They deliberately waited till it was approaching deadline to make payments.
As for the budget, that your claim is for the ignorant. During the last interaction senator leadership held with Buhari at the villa, he declared that he didn't know ministers and heads of agencies were they ones stalling the process.

Sirjamo:
So you want him to be waiting for those useless legislators to be dancing on the approval until the end of the deadline, just as they are doing to the 2018 budget proposal since last year? The money has been paid already, let them do their worst.

This is a sign that we don't have serious airforce officers otherwise they would have rejected those planes. Its an insult for us to still be talking about this types of planes that we have 100 of them wasting away in kaduna. When will hausa people apply common sense .
