Unfortunately that seems to be the tradition of Nigerian army. I don't if soldiers welfare money and allowances is a special course at NDA. I have a retired soja friend who told that as at March 2020, the months arrears of their pension that was approved by Buhari and money by finance ministry, that it was only 6 months that was paid to them. No minimum wage yet but corpers don collect their money and old men are suffering.

The main reason why this war will never end, it is all about money to these animals.

Those "laid down procedures" are meant to silence them.

Imagine the paltry sum they are paying soldiers fighting wars meanwhile the good for nothing legislators live large.

Gone are the days the military had some balls, they would have taken over long time ago. Democracy is not for us.

it serves them right or are they not the ones protecting the NASS members` from the angry Public wh owuld have dealth with them and their greed and corruption?

If you serve and protect criminality, it will also come to bite you in the back, what goes round, comes around.
The NASS is full of criminals, certificate forgers like Dini Melaye, 419ers and all sorts of dubious characters and yet they just allocate money to themselves
I think you see that He-Goat called Dino Melaye doing video, telling "God" that his taste has become ostentatious, there is Ferrari, Lambroghini, RollsRoyce downstairs.............Yet the fool did not setup any company, did not invent any product nor did he startup any business, Except being a Senator of Nigeria!
angry angry angry

Armed froces should stop protecting these criminals in NASS or else, they should just STFU and enjoy the ride with the rest of the citizens. undecided

That is not true!
Even under the miliatry rule in the 70's and 80's. the Head of State was the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed forces and Head of the Supreme Military Council, hence in a Coup, he has to resign that command or be shot.

What us hapening now is that the Soldeirs have learnt how to steal and loot under a Civilian Govt, without ever bordering about how to govern and the effrot it entails.
If they take over so they can loot (soldeirs are looters as well but decision making is faster in a military Govt and Contractors dont just collect Mobilisation fee and abandon contracts anyhow), they still have to be saddled with rulling the masses, while watching their own backs for juior officers! grin\But nowadays, they still can loot, for example, using the War on Insurgency as an excuse, so why shoudl they broder about intervention and the burden of rulership?
Its all about the economics and efficiency of easy money.
The Military is as corrupt as the Police and are competing with the thieves in National Assembly

No.

I will be the last person on earth to defend Nigerian politicians but it should be made clear that nobody is slaughtering anybody. This 'problem' is a 'family' affair that does not involve civilians. Isn't that the familiar refrain - military matters are above the abilities of civilians - and civilians should keep off?

Neither I or anyone I know reduced anyone else to beggars or made them look weak. The parties involved did a fine job of that all by themselves - and they can sort out internally whatever issues they have with one another. Thankfully their petition was addressed to the military high command so we - the people often derisively referred to as the 'bloody' people - do not need to get involved. It isn't our problem.

In all my years slaving away on different jobs, nobody ever paid me a cigarette allowance. undecided I also never got a single cocoa bean - not to talk of a bar of chocolate.

Nigeria is hard for everybody.

Firefire:

‘A budget that moves domestic spending in Aso Villa from N580m to N1.7bn cannot be a budget of change’


Abuja – Sen. Eyinnaya Abaribe (PDP Abia South) on Wednesday in Abuja, berated the 2016 budget and called on President Muhammaduu Buhari to withdraw it and go back to the drawing board.

Abaribe while making contributions during the consideration of the budget, said the proposal was faulty on many grounds and could not be implemented at it was.

He said that predication of oil benchmark at 38 dollars per barrel when the crude oil price had fallen below 30 dollars per barrel made the budget unrealistic.

Abaribe faulted the government for increasing spending by 30 per cent based on borrowing.

“Mr President, my colleagues, this budget is indeed unique. After the budget presentation, the finance minister has never come to explain the details of the budget as it is normally done.

“It is a budget of change I agree, but it is a change in the wrong direction. I say it is a change in the wrong direction because it says that it is based on zero budgeting requiring all expenses to be fully justified.

“Mr President, a budget that increases spending up to 30 per cent based solely on borrowing, in what way are we justified? That is the question we want to ask the people who brought this budget.

“We know what is going on in the global economy: this budget is predicated on an oil benchmark of 38 dollars per barrel and I can now say that with oil being 28 dollars today, this budget is dead on arrival.

“The job of the opposition is to help the government to get its priorities right, so I want to please urge this government to withdraw this budget and go back to the drawing board,” he said.

The senator also faulted the adjustments made in the budget as well as allocation for spending in the Aso Rock Villa, saying that it was too exorbitant.

He said that the adjustments rather than reduce spending in areas where they were not necessary only spread it into different offices.

“Mr President, a budget that moves domestic spending within Aso Villa from N580 million to N1.7 billion cannot be a budget of change.


“We were told that in the revised budget there was an adjustment due to error, we agree but what has happened is that up to N7 billion were moved from buying vehicles and spread to offices.

“It also increased the spending that is due to renovations within the Villa.

“They are going to renovate the Villa with N3.9 billion: what else do you want to renovate there that Nigerians will see in the Year 2016?” he asked.

However, in his contribution, Sen. Ahmed Lawan (APC Yobe North) blamed the previous administration for the lack of funds due to the embezzlement witnessed in previous governments.

He said that this was the 17th budget he would be debating as a legislator and noted that not more than 40 per cent implementation was achieved in the last 16 years.

“The proposal before us is the first budget where the executive has deemed it necessary to give ordinary Nigerians genuine hope.

“N500 billion allocated for school feeding and social SAFTEY NET is commendable.
