The president made the request through a letter to the Senate, read during the plenary by the Senate President, GodsWill Akpabio, on Tuesday, noting that the fund was to execute critical projects in different sectors.

The President Bola Tinubu-led administration has sought the approval of the Nigerian Senate for $8.6billion and €100million borrowing plan.

The president made the request through a letter to the Senate, read during the plenary by the Senate President, GodsWill Akpabio, on Tuesday, noting that the fund was to execute critical projects in different sectors.


The request was said to be part of the federal government 2022-2024 external borrowing plan approved by former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, according to the letter.

Tinubu explained that the projects to be funded with the loan cuts across different sectors of the economy, and were selected based on economic evaluation and the expected contribution to the country’s development.

The letter reads in part;, “I write in respect of the above subject and to submit the attached the federal government 2022-2024 external borrowing plan for consideration and early approval of the National Assembly to ensure prompt implementation of the projects.


“The Senate may wish to note that the past administration approved a 2022-2024 borrowing plan by the federal executive council (FEC) held on May 15, 2023.

“The project cuts across all sectors, with specific emphasis on infrastructure, agriculture, health, water supply, roads, security, and employment generation as well as financial management reforms.

“Consequently, the required approval is in the sum of $8,699,168,559 and €100 million.

“I would like to underscore the fact that the projects and programmes in the borrowing plan were selected based on economic evaluations as well as the expected contribution to the social economic development of the country, including employment generation, and skills acquisition.

“Given the nature of these facilities, and the need to return the country to normalcy it has become necessary for the Senate to consider and approve the 2022- 2024 external abridged borrowing plan to enable the government deliver its responsibility to Nigerians.”

In August, the National Assembly approved President Tinubu’s request for over $800 million loan to finance the National Social Safety Network Programme.

The National Assembly had also approved the 2022 Supplementary Appropriations Act of N819 million “for the provision of Palliatives to Nigerians to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal”.

Your country is an extension of British Company UNILEVER….


That’s why they ensure quacks emerge as president and tell them to borrow from Western powers while the same Western powers steal your resources….

^^^

No he is not.

I agree he is a grand wizard at breaking both the sound and light barriers. He was able to accelerate from 1970 to 1974...gain admission to a secondary school...complete his studies...and then decelerate back into 1970 while everybody else stood frozen in time, not knowing what the hell was going on. undecided

But all that does not make him a 'smart' and 'educated' human being.

It does not.

A man completely without honour. undecided

Pls stop making excuses for Tinubu by blaming Buhari, it makes no sense. He brought Buhari to power and told us it is his turn. He's the president now isn't he? Everything that goes right or wrong is solely on him and this right here is very bad! Our economy is dying and borrowing destroys our economy further and weakens the Naira. Where's the Trillions they saved from Subsidy and the recent repatriated Abacha's loot? Where's our internal IGR?

Buhari was borrowing to fund fuel subsidies and imports, the external debt profile is below. Ending fuel subsidies was to end consumption and increase debt.

I laugh in Idoma language ooo. Their certificate forger president is working. I will never stop calling APC an evil party and big a curse to humanity. How do you want Nigeria to be great when agberos, touts, terrorist sponsors, illiterates, people without economy knowledge, strange men, certificate forgers and killers are in power? Nigeria will never develop until we destroy and bury tribal, religion, social and political sentiments.

If we don't stop this APC demons they will sell Nigeria very soon. Sometimes I feel it's a dream. The painful part is the idiooooots supporting and defending them.
