So with this reason, it is justified?

Still surprises me when I see ordinary people defending corrupt persons in authority. Sometimes, I say to myself, we've not suffered enough.

15B for this economy
He be like say VP go go rent he house for Abuja
No money in the country

Lol

Jig5aw:
So since it was Goodluck Jonathan’s government it’s free money?

You for prefer make them abandon the building?

K

Obi will never ever be presidentof anything except president of Biafra.

Let me say I agree with him but then why is it now that the effects of the country’s economy is really hard on Nigerians? If it is so needed, why not renovate the existing vp’s residence and save some money that can be used on other more important things than dolling out a whooping 15B for a new residence at this time in nigeria!

With this kind of leaders Nigeria will never make it! no be curse.

Na true

Imagine the project was awarded by ex president not even this administration.

worse.where are his boys in reps and senate.they have joined the old Nigeria.new Nigeria has joined old Nigeria.if my hand catch Obi the slap I’ll give him.

How would someone in his right senses use 15b to complete a house project...how much is cement and how much is block?..

This VP house project shouldn't cost...more than 1b..in reality

Firstorderwizard:
Is Stanley Nkwocha IPOB too ?

If you're not receiving atleast 350k monthly alert from this govt and you're defending them on grounds of the President being from your tribe or religion then you are a subhuman specie. Not fully developed enough mentally to be classified a full human being

350k is not even a lot, they should be getting about 2M per month

Peter obi now talks without sense. A disgruntled element.

If what he said is senseless to you, you need to get your brains checked

Stanley NKWOCHA, his surname says it all. By the time they are done with you people, particularly the ronulites, you will all be bald-headed in this country. No be renewed hope? OK na.

dejonathan:

So, since there is already a building, you don't believe that the .5 of the 15.5billion should facilitate the completion?

I know you will be sad because I hit your lord and savior Peter obi.

I don't know why these people just believe that Nigerians are gullible and can be told any half truth...

After spending close to 6bn renovating the residences of the VP in Abuja and Lagos, is it not a case of misplaced priorities to be earmarking 15bn towards an abandoned project when that 15bn can be used to provide loans to thousands of farmers to boost food security?

Why should Wike prioritize completing this structure when there are a thousand and one more pressing infrastructural projects uncompleted/abandoned from the previous regime which would be of more service to the people?

Do you know what 15bn would do if earmarked to renovate general hospitals in Abuja, schools or universities?

Why should this be a priority project of the country in the midst of our current austere situation?

Let's not try to normalize corruption and financial recklessness just because looters want to maintain the narrative that there are no better alternatives

I was impeached for refusing to inflate budget – Peter Obi

“They want to repair Office of the Governor, which is my office, the approved budget for 2006 was N298 million, I repaired everything with N43.2 million. They said I didn’t do it through due process, because they have awarded the contract.

“The second item was repair of the Governor’s Lodge, which is where I live, everything was N486 million, I did everything with N81 million, they said it didn’t go through due process. That is to show you how government works, they input so many roadblocks.”

this not all about Obi. It is the resources that are been use. Even Obi was to do the same nobody will have said such spending is justify.
Please leave Obi out of this.
It our tax fund that we are
talking about here

Must it be this time the country's economy is in very deep recession. A country where a whole month income can't buy the cheapest brand of local rice. This is the most insensitive, incompetent and corrupt government ever seen.

we are talking of 10 million US dollars. these politicians are MAD

how many times dem go renovate residences for VP and President

I think it's time we start threatening our reps and senators not to come back to our constituents anytime they fail to do our biddings. How can these people be so insensitive? 15b for VP's lodge. We need to agree and understand we re a third world country and we can't afford the first world's tastes we re always hungry of.

Stop making ignorant statements like a novice that is just new to Nigerian politics.

The man was literally impeached as a governor for cutting cost of governance and reducing waste.
He was notorious for frugality.

If you have no clue about Nigerian politics, just sit down look.

15billion Maura for Vice President's house. How ridiculous!

14,985 Small and Medium Enterprises can actually get 1 million naira each from 15 billion naira to transform and augment their businesses in Nigeria and add value to the economy. Wouldn't that be a better way to spend 15 billion naira?

Jungleluv5:

It's a lie. Definitely not this 15.5billion. What he meant was that it was Jonathan that awarded the contract for the building project but it was later left abandoned probably by the next administration.

They are united by greed.

The Zoo is in a great confusion now. Trying so hard to recovery every kobo paid to snatch, steal, grab and run the election with eye neck! See wetin dey vomit for mouth.. Ones you join them, defending them makes you look stvpid!

So simply because the project was not started by your administration it should be completed by your administration?

So even if the project is of no real functional value or economic significance it must be completed simply because it was started?

So even if there are more pressing economic issues , the project must be completed now now, in 2024?

Na wa!

15B pere.

Funds must be looted and avenues must be provided for the looting.
