So what are we talking about? 2 per quarter means 8 per annum.

If 8 is normal, then at what rate does overseas travel become too many?

Over 80 percent of the time, they travel for medical reasons. The only action that will make sense is if the president upgrades at least one hospital in Abuja to world class standard where himself can boldly seek medical care always. Anything short of that is rubbish.

First good move by Nigeria's President Mamman Daura, well done sir, but please try and enforce it and it will be a more welcome development if this is incorporated into Nigeria's constitution as thus:

1.) No Nigerian President should travel outside Nigeria more than 10 times in a year, and it must be a highly important meeting like UN meeting, etc.

2.) Nigerian President can only travel out of Nigeria to seek for medical treatment only after it has been proven beyond doubt that his illness cannot be treated in Nigeria, and if that is the case, the President must formally write a letter to the NASS seeking for approval, and stating clearly the nature of his illness and why it requires a foreign trip.

3.) No Nigerian Governor, Senator, House of reps member, LGA Chairman, Minister, Permanent Secretary, etc shall embark on a foreign medical trip, and can only travel out of Nigeria during his/her tenure in office once for others, and twice for Governors.

4.) As soon as a Nigerian wins election to become President, Governor, LGA Chairman, Senator, House of Rep, or gets appointed as Minister, Permanent Secretary, head of any government parastatal, IG of Police, COAS, Commissioner, etc, he or she must immediately withdraw all his children from any foreign institution where they may have been schooling, and will never seek for study outside Nigeria.

Do these and watch Nigeria begin the process of true development.

dipoolowoo:

This directive was approved by President Muhammadu Buhari as part of additional cost saving measures aimed at instilling financial discipline and prudence, particularly, in the area of official travels.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, it was emphasised that the affected officials can only embark on more than two foreign trips in three months “except with the express approval of Mr President.”

In addition, all Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) have been asked to submit their Yearly Travel Plans for statutory meetings and engagements to the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation and/or the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation for express clearance within the first quarter of the fiscal year, before implementation.

Thank you. Funny how no one is seeing this, but rather applauding this facade.

Whatever makes them go abroad should be developed here
Why can't we have foreigners doing tourism to our country


Yes ooo. We should do what will develop Nigeria. I hear that Buhari is a laughing stock in UK for going there for medical treatment. Tiny landlocked Rwanda is doing much to make the country nice. But big for nothing Nigeria is not serious.

Do you realize what this means?
2 trips per quarter, which means 2 trips every 3 months.
Doesn't change anything.
Means the official can travel 8 times in a year on govt money.

Hmmm. Interesting. Good development. Time to cut down on unnecessary wasteful practices.
I hear some government agencies travel abroad regularly even more than the Presidency. Some petroleum agencies and some departments in the civil aviation authority of Nigeria, and nimasa. Amd these travels are abused terribly, done calculatedly by very few favoured caucus members to enrich themselves with estacodes while the rest staff watch helplessly. I hope these government policies can checkmate or balance these practices, not just Paper talk as usual. Naija shall be great again.

It means maximum of 2 trips. Not necessarily a must.
If you know how often these political appointees junketeer around the world, you realize it’s a good start to curb their excessiveness.
