I wéep for my nation Nigeria... Now I do not weep because of our leaders, but rather I weep because there are still ordinary Nigerians out there who still wish the likes of GEJ to continue ruling us and these same set of people are actually still asking where the change is. May God open the eyes of the blind!

Over N6billion spent in 2010 yet that idiotic chief wailer still shouts Buhari's budget of N70million is "too much".

citizenY:
For just one minute, can you imagine if Jonathan is still in power today?

rebranded:


20million for 1000 children, thats N20,000 per child for a party, in a country where policemen are paid N15,000/month

whoever is organising that party will be smiling home with a minimum of  15million in their pocket!

Good job Jonathan, will say it again this independence day celebration will hunt GEJ for the rest of his political career

rebranded:
Mark this down, this celebration expenses will continue to trail this administration and may sometime in future be probed!

Jonathan should be wise in spending. N6.6bn is a welcomed adjustment but the people will like to see maximum N2bn

FOR  the  second time  within two weeks, President Goodluck Jonathan has  sent  an amendment proposal to the National Assembly on 2010  Appropriation  Act.

The  first was on  the revenue framework to be based on revising the  assumptions for oil production of 2.2million barrels per day and oil price benchmark of  US$60  per barrel.

The first  revision will imply aggregate revenue for the federal government budget of N2.392trillion and a  deficit of about N1.829 trillion based on the  proposed amended budget’s  level of expenditure.

However, the latest, which is the second request  dated July 7, 2010 and addressed to the Senate President, Senator David Mark, was to seek  adjustment to some sub-heads and  a  downward  review  or removal  of some allocations to some of the Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).

The affected  MDAs  which have their allocations reviewed or completely withdrawn were Office of Secretary to the Government of the Federation, the Ministry of Information and Communications, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and National Orientation, the Ministry of Women Affairs, the Ministry of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), the Ministry of Aviation, the National Planning Commission and the National Assembly Office.

But the amendment still proposed a total expenditure of N6.6 billion for the celebration of Nigeria at 50.

The fresh proposal indicated that the Office of the SGF  would now spend N3.3 billion instead of N6.3 billion, but other subheads had been added to the reduction made by  President Jonathan.

A breakdown of the new proposal under the SGF office shows that 50th independence anniversary parade will cost N860 million, branded gifts and souvenirs N450 million; accommodation and logistics for invited guests N700 million, while security and protocol will cost N400 million.

The Ministry of Information and Communications is now to spend N1.7 billion instead of the earlier N1.2 billion. The ministry will spend N1 billion on special reports, N400 million on publication of compendium and N320 million for jingles and adverts.

Aviation Ministry is to spend N2.2 billion on Abuja Airport renovation and provision of additional parking space and equipment for safe airport parking at five airports at the cost of N250 million.

First Lady, Mrs. Patience  Jonathan, will spend N50 million  on  visits to special homes, orphanages, prisons and selected hospitals, while N20 million will be used in sponsoring a special session of the National Children Parliament and another N20 million  will be used to organise a party for 1,000 children.

Other ministries to spend part of the anniversary fund include, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, N600 million; Ministry of Culture and Tourism, N820 million; State House, N215 million; National Assembly Office, N100 million and the National Planning Commission, N135 million.
