[s]Ok... Watch how hypocritical Nairaland students notorious for padding school fees, registration fees, textbooks money, etc. will cast the first stone.

Watch how hypocritical Nairaland women, notorious for extorting their husbands will cast the first stone...

Watch how hypocritical Nairaland men, notorious for shortchanging the companies they work at, will cast the first stone. At Sheraton Hotel, where some work, they give room of 150k, pocket 130k, then lie to the management that only 20k was realized..

At Skido Pharmaceutical Company where some work, they engage in various shady practices.. Go to Lekwele forum, Asokoto blog, they illegally weylay unsuspecting advertisers, asking them to pass through them, instead of the owner/proper channel, with a promise of outrageous discounts. And then before you know it, an unknown blog gets featured!

Go to churches, all God's monies are diverted to the pastors' private pockets!

CORRUPTION EVERYWHERE! But these hypocrites are ONLY concerned about the corruption going on in government, forgetting that it's the corrupt people like them that are actually in government! Bloody hypocrites!

CAST THE FIRST STONE IF YOU CAN SWEAR WITH YOUR LIFE THAT YOU ARE NOT AS CORRUPT AS THE POLITICIANS!

BLOODY HYPOCRITES!

Nigeria must better[/s]!
Wow!! You almost, almost made sense if not for the fact that you're defending a thief caught because there are other thieves around.

You're the world heavyweight champion of hypocrisy

And you even ended it with Nigeria must better. So how will Nigeria be better by encouraging stealing because others are doing it?
Just say you're part of those stealing from the present arrangement

This stupid reporting on NASS padding budget got to stop.

NASS determines the budget in every democracy. They own the purse from Europe to America to Asia. What they allowed are allowed, what they refuse is refused.

Ask Donald Trump his experience with Pelosi.
You mean Congress pad budget in the US?

You should stop smoking weed, because one is meant to blast & understand?What You are purportedly complaining about chronic corruption, budget padding by the legislature, is legal in the eye of the law. Americans call it lobbying, or filibustering.
so u didn't read the part things added were the senators constituency projects....which money had been provided for......or the ones for specific girls in anambra or so....most of the padded items are almost vague and the money disappears and u here saying legal....and please it is not lobbying!!!

It's not corruption. It's called politics.

The good thing is that the Executive and not the NASS implements the budget.

Stop smoking weed and transferring the resultant effects on me.

Go school and learn but you chose to go and smoke weed.
I asked u the brand of weed u smoke u refused to say....how is padding project politics??... cause we all know the padded money vanishes into thin air...and for clarity sake so u don't phew rubbish outside...the executive prepares the project...the legislative debates and approves it..for the executive to implement... and it is an open secret that the two arms work together on things like this for there personal gain so please stop sounding naive...u even had the effrontery to say is not corruption... gosh!!!!

Stop being stupid, the Legislators debate the budgets, while executive heads are called to defend some items in the budgets then the Legislators adjust, add and remove items they don't want in the budget.

It's called politics
so when the legislature adds the constituency projects there when it has been captured already....what is it called......u think u are wise abi!!!!!?

Well we learn everyday, they do, it is called lobbying Congress, & for the no good opposition like PDP, it is filibustering.
lols....please get the facts so u don't confuse yourself.... lobbying is different from project padding.....
to lobby is to seek to influence (a legislator) on an issue
on policy formulation...how is adding vague stuffs and already captured items lobbying.....?

Lobbying in the United States describes paid activity in which special interest groups hire well-connected professional advocates, often lawyers, to argue for specific legislation in decision-making bodies such as the United States Congress. It is a highly controversial phenomenon, often seen in a negative light by journalists and the American public,[1] with some critics describing it as a legal form of bribery or extortion. Culled from Wikipedia.
this stuff u copied and pasted....how those it correlate to the issue here....accord to ur culled statement lobbying is to influence legislation (policies) so how does it now come in to project padding... is the 2021 project a government policy?

The Legislators don't implement capital projects hence the Executive will do the justice required. If two bridges were approved bearing the same name, the Executive will do one and writes to NASS to transfer the remaining funds for other projects.

Legislators don't execute projects. How does the money vanish? Who will release the money to the Legislators?

Pelosi inserted $500 million into covid-19 relief fund for supporting Gay and Lesbianism in Pakistan and President Trump threatened to veto the bill but signed it at the last moment.
