Peter Obi Advises Ihedioha: Don't Waste Imo Money, Ignore Chartered Jets by Smaade: 10:33am On May 29, 2019
From former Governor of Anambra state and the PDP Vice Presidential candidate in the 2019 General elections, His Excellency Peter Obi, came a warning to new Imo state Governor, His Excellency Emeka Ihedioha.

Speaking at a very high profile lecture on May 28 to mark the inauguration of Ihedioha as the governor, Obi, who was the Guest of Honour warned Ihedioha off three things.

The first thing, Obi told Ihedioha, is not to imbibe the habit of flying in chartered jets. 99 per cent of Nigerian Governors feel it is beneath them to fly on commercial planes.

This costs them millions of Naira. The governors blame it on exigencies of duties. But Obi told Ihedioha to perish the thought, and get on a commercial flight to save money with which to work for Imo people.

Obi: "Don't waste money. Ignore chartered jets. Why pay millions of Naira when you can pay only N40,000 and get to the same destination?"

The second is the office of the First Lady. It costs money.....

I just love this man called Obi!
One of the very few governors who has not a strand of corruption hanging on his neck after his tenure even though he is in the opposition!!!
A man who practices what he preaches!
Unlike a man that we know that condemned foreign medical tourism yet he has the highest bill in the history of Nigerian presidents (in just 4yrs)!
Or the same mr intergrity that vowed to close down the office of "the first lady" and then he replaced it with "office of wife of the president" cheesy

Obi should be quite pls, allow this new governor alone, if you must advice tell atiku to stop wasting his time and money, we are already in the next level, we didn't vote for atiku, we believe he can't fixed the problem he is deeply part of the team that created it. We trusted him and PDP and they betray us, we refused to make that mistake again.

Buhari promised not to use presidential jets but what has happened
The fraudulent barawo has taken us for a long ride into extreme poverty and unemployment.

GMB‬ Speech While Addressing Nigeria Community In The United Kingdom.


I Will Maintain a modest lifestyle as President -Muhammadu Buhari.

“One of the major killers of our economy apart from corruption is waste. Our scarce resources are being plundered away very carelessly and unnecessarily wasted. Let me give an instance, presently, there are more than 6 aircraft in the presidential fleet. What do you call that? Billions of naira is budgeted every year for the maintenance of these aircraft not to talk of operational cost and other expenses.

You may want to ask what a Nigerian President is doing with so many aircraft when a Prime Minister of Britain fly around using the same public aircraft like an ordinary Briton.

Go and check and compare with that of any developed country in the world, the office of the Nigerian President is a very expensive one inspite our high level of poverty, lack and joblessness. Despite all these, you still find a Nigerian Minister spending about N10billion to charter an aircraft for just one year. Now, for me, when we come into office, all these waste will be blocked and properly channelled into our economy. We intend for instance, to bring back our National carrier, the Nigerian airways. We shall do this by bringing all the aircraft in the presidential fleet into the Nigerian airways and within a year increase the fleet into about 20.

More from: http://www.osundefender.org/?p=217159


Budget for presidential aircraft for Buhari, Osinbajo nearly doubles to N7.3 billion

The Federal Government has proposed to spend N7.26 billion on the Presidential Air Fleet, PAF, in the 2018 budget proposal, details by the Budget Office of the Federation have shown.

Of the amount, about N4.3 billion was proposed for recurrent expenditure, while N2.8 billion would go for capital expenditure.

The proposed expenditure is about 67 per cent higher than the N4.37 billion appropriation in the 2017 budget, which consisted of N3.97 billion for recurrent and N399.5 million for capital projects.

In the current proposal, which is subject to the approval by the National Assembly, at least N1.58 billion was set aside for the overhaul and maintenance of five aircraft on the fleet, from about N2.9 billion budgeted for capital expenditure.
