To every conscious Nigerian who deem it fit to identify with the administration of President Muhammad Buhari and National issues in general, if we could have a man who is corruption free like Muhammad Buhari and a man of unquestionable character cum academic excellence and intelligent like Yemi Osinbajo as vice president and good governance, economic growth, infrastructural development and abundant life for all and sundry is still crawling like a 9 months old baby, then, there is need for questioning from our leaders who were admired and voted for by Nigerians for their humility, simplicity, credibility, charisma and accomplishment.

To all Nigerians who are unaware of the power tussle and battle for supremacy that is going on between the executive and the legislators which have limited the strength and level of performances of our dear president, information is very key, in other word, if you are not informed you will be deformed. The unethical practices and gross misconduct including corruption, nepotism, parochialism and selfishness of our law-breakers called law-makers have detest the standard of this government and make it difficult for our president to perform beyond expectations.

It is now important to educate the entire Nigerian about the challenges facing the executive from the angle of Saraki and Dogara led National Assembly.

1. Do you know that the 2018 budget had been submitted to the National Assembly by the president since November 7, 2017?

2. Do you know that it takes the lawmakers six good months before the budget was unfavourably considered?

3. Do you know the National Assembly cut funding in budget of 2018 contrary to what is submitted back in November 7, 2017 by the
President?

4. Do you know that the reason why the budget languished so long under the obnoxious act of the legislators is to pave way for padding, and
the so call invisible constituency projects?

5. Do you know the federal lawmakers reduce to N347bn in the allocation to 4,700 projects submitted to them for consideration and
introduced 6,403 projects of their own amounting to N578bn?

7. Do you know that many of the new projects inserted by the National Assembly have not been properly conceptualized, designed and costed
and will therefore be difficult to execute?

8. Do you know the budget that is meant to address economic growth, creation of jobs and laudable project across the country had been
hijacked by corrupt and cankerworm called National Assembly?

9. Do you know the cut funding we make it impossible to raise counterpart funding for Mambilla Power Plant?

10. Do you know the cut funding will make it impossible to complete the second Niger Bridge?

11. Do you know the on-going Lagos-Ibadan express way project will seize to continue?

12. Do you know many of the project cut are critical and may be difficult; if not impossible, to implement with the reduced allocation?

Fellow Nigerians, can we say President Muhammad Buhari made a mistake by allowing a level playing ground and by extending hand of fellowship to all arms of government in which National Assembly is not excluded?

It is clear that Muhammad Buhari meant well for Nigerians but the cankerworm, devourer and the power monger at the chamber of the houses have deem it fit to rage at him, in order to make Nigeria ungovernable for him.

Though the task may be difficult, but this season shall pass and the lawmaker’s victimization shall be the source of strength, motivation and triumph for President Muhammad Buhari. He who laugh last laugh best.

What a brilliant piece !!!!! The writer really analyzed the whole situation. It is very pathetic that the NASS is doing it best to frustrate the good deeds and plans of this administration. There is an urgent need for the whole country to come together and fight this common enemy which is NASS.

Deep!!!! The evil and the selfish, the corrupt acts of the NASS has been exposed!!!!! They are the major enemy to this administration and I kniw it is intentional because they are not allowed to loot like they have been looting before. There is a need for total purgin in the NASS.

PMB will always have the support of all Nigerians as we know that he has the love of all Nigerians in mind and all hes doing is for the benefit of all Nigerians,GOD bless him and GOD bless federal republic of Nigeria.

We all know that NASS is working against the betterment of this nation,Saraki/Dogara and their cohorts have shown the world where they belong...they are the real enemy of this nation and the best thing we can do is to rally our support for president Buhari for him to have a very sucesful tenure we all see the NASS were trying to frustrate his govt and i pray God will dissapoint them all................I_STAND_WITH_BUHARI

Na hahahahaha hafa, stewpid zombie thread, Shey u all are Looking vfr Excuses,

Let buhari Take Monies budgeted fr his Aso Rock clinic and oda Ghost purposes and use same to Augment The Shortfalls

It is a clear fact that president Mohammadu Buhari meant well for the development of this country ,but these cankerworms and devourers are the battle we need to pray that God should destroy ....because i can't imagine the NASS dragging the progress of this nation in the mud..

The sarakl and Dogara of this world will bow down for buhari at last.Their days at the chamber of the houses are numbered. Their mission is to destroy the sound and laudable relationship Buhari is enjoy from Nigerians. Buhari will laugh last.

Their sole reason is because they think through this buhari will not be reelected.
They don't even know that through this revelation from buhari mouth make it easier for buhari till 2023.

Even the evil PDP and the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of Biafra are not saying anything against buhari.

God bless PMB for revealing the truth about the budget, the secret behind devilish act of padding and the criminal lawbreakers who masterminded it. Nigerian real enemies are 109 senators and 360 house representatives members who went to Abuja for their personal and selfish interest.

Our lawmakers are the brain behind the suffering in this nation, I think it is high time we focus on carefully selecting who will represent us in the National Assembly more now. They have shown their incompetencies and needs to be flushed out.

hmmm! Wise write up and seriously we cant be facing this from this enemy of progress call themselves NASS and we will be expecting this country to move forward.. the person who wrote the budget knows what He want for the betterment of this Country why are they dragging us back naw.... we will not course u but we wont quite

what is wrong with the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of Biafra?

God bless Mr. President. I know from day one that our major problem now is the bunch of old fellows in our NASS.

Its so unfortunate, God forbid that I vote any of them from my state again.

What we are seeing now in the palace of Nigeria politics is what has been happening for a very long time. The reason why we are hearing about it now is because we have a president that have the interest of the people at heart, and this is also an indication for us to know that it's no more business as usual.
I so much believe that it doesn't matter how long you have been doing something, the most important thing is that it's not going to continue...this is time for CHANGE. No more padding!!!

I heard in the news this morning that the lawmakers (southeast caucus) denied knowing anything about the Enugu terminal Airport project being slashed from #2bn to #500m.....are they telling us they went to the house to be sleeping?is senator ike ekweremadu the vice senate president is in the house just to scam his people?all the law-makers are just in the house for their own selfish interest and nothing more...........NASS_is _a fruad

The President failed to show us that he is in control not them. Exactly what we are saying, he is not smart enough to make good choices for us. The budget is better on signed than signing something that is bound to fail and cause more damage to us. He didnt do himself a favour by signing and making excuses.

I wonder when our democracy is going to mature. So these so called honorable Senators still believe padding is still the best way to go. What a pity!!...it's no more business as usual for your information. Nigerians are closely watching you.

The law-makers are finding their act of corruption difficult under president Buhari. The act of Budget padding is not new to them and is in their blood just that as we all know president Buhari doesn't support corruption and that is why their evil acts are just exposing to the world.I wonder if their constituents fraud project are more important than the one of the fed govt. #bunch of thieves

Good Writer, Many of these NASS are bad examples because many are illegal. It's true that an illegal act can also be unethical but a better example would exclude illegal acts. Also, under the professional list, things that are negligent should also be stricken. Just my opinion.

In 2015 we voted out the Executhieves and let's deem it fit to vote out the Legislathieves who are enemy of progress to this country...
We cannot concur by their greediness, selfishness and power monger. We elected them and they suppose to represent our interest and not vice versa...

You are missing the real point here bra... Looking at the calendar of this year you will realize that it would be more satanic not to sign the budget and start debating the on the padding. This will lead to a very lengthy argument that could take us all the remaining of this year to settle. I don't think that is what we need now considering the little time we have to implement the budget.
Therefor, Buhari only did us a favor by signing the budget....we should thank him for not being egoistic and power driven.

Im so sure you are deluded in your brain because if you are not you will be able to read and assimilate sit down and think you will see that PMB meant well for this great country of ours.

It is so obvious that you are commenting out of sentiments and hatred for the president. How has he failed to show us he is in control? Do you even know what they call governance? Can the president take actions on his own without the approval and signature of other arms of government? If he acts on his own you call him a dictator. I guess you are one of those that can never be pleased with the president no matter the good he does.

It is obvious that our lawmakers have turned themselves to benchwarmers in the National Assembly.

The President meant well for us, but they have formed a coup to abort that mission, they will surely pay for it.

Transparency, communication, and accountability around ethical behaviors are a few of the leadership behaviors Like NASS , Commonly suggested NASS. The behavior scientist can provide focus education and coaching on these behaviors to enable leaders to demonstrate critical behaviors which demonstrate a focus on ethics and being ethical.

Do you remember the president submitted the budget November 7, 2017 and they delayed it for their parochialism and selfish gains... If the president refused to sign it at this moment, when will the execution of projects commence? You ought to understand that the president is doing every necessary things for the progress, betterment and development of the country and these people at the National Assembly are working retrogressively to make this government ungovernable.

Sometimes when I take a critical look at the settings of our system of government I realized that we have not mature enough for this kind of system. And that is the reason why some set of people are abusing it...
Many are individuals at the house of senate that doesn't deserve to be there in the first place. The fact that we elected some wrong set of people to be our law-makers is the reason why we are facing what we are facing today. All what these people care for is their pocket. And of course they will make it look like they are doing in the interest of the people....don't be deceived!!! They are all after their pocket.

From a behavioral perspective of NASS, One can hypothesize these small transgressions resulted in enough reinforcement to continue to behave towards larger transgressions, again possibly yielding further reinforcement, ultimately resulting in major unethical behavior (i.e., fraud, larceny). Unfortunately, the assumption that unethical NASS behavior is the product of a few “bad apples” has blinded many of National Assembly to the fact that everyone is susceptible to their environment and can be unethical, even when we care a great deal about honesty, integrity, and following rules. Yet approaches to warding off those few “bad apples” need not to be drastic.

At times ,i sit down to think about this country.who are the people that has the love and its development in mind?..while some people are saying up! up!! up!!!,,there you will see others saying down ! down!! down!!!..Is it not surprising that we are having Legislators as our big problem now...This is serious....

Is it because these people at the National Assembly are unable to loot, peculate, defalcate and embezzle like they normally do in the past administration make them to be padding budget for this administration to be ungovernable?
NASS is the enemy of progress and agent of destruction for this country...

Have you ever seen unethical behavior? If you did, did you say something or wonder whether it was truly unethical? Nearly three-quarter of National Assembly who responded to one survey reported that they had observed unethical or illegal behavior among NASS. “People often start their misconduct with small transgressions and then slide down a slippery slope....
