This tonyebarcanista should f*ckin take several seats back. It's absurd how you hold yourself on the high when it comes to issues pertaining to national development. Need I remind you that you are a renowned wailer and only newbies on here would consider engaging you and your foolish articles whose aim is to malign and paint a bad light of every policy put forward by this government for the betterment of Nigerians at large. Your case is simply that of mind boggling idiocy.

Speechless.

Bet many didn't watch the video.
PMB said he never made that promise in his campaign stops,but admits it's there in the APC manifesto.Therefore the govt will look into it.
In otherwords he wasn't definite on the govt's stance on the 5k stipend,i.e he is not committing the govt,but also not dismissing its implementation outright.
But for me,unless the govt is suicidal or trying to pander to cheap publicity,the 5k free bill should be thrown into the dustbin.The money is not there and the infrastructure and modalities for its implementation are also not currently available

Jonathanians never get tired of extolling the almost zero virtues of their god even long after election. Imagine opening a whole new thread to celebrate the patching of a bad portion of a very long road, and one would think the man even fixed this road with his pocket money.

OP no no no that magazine was 'ashually' edited by an IPOD youth! What was written there was "Buhari is a saint", then an IPOD youth changed it - APC zombies

. There is no how he could have gone through almost 2000 pages of the budget leaving other things to suffer. I know there are some people that does not want this country to move forward but God will shame them. I also know there are some enemy in that aso villa wanting to embarrass PMB and giving some goats the guts to be talking any how. We are with you PMB as you are trying to clear the rot of the previous government.

I dont understand this govt at all; Buhari will say one thing and Lai Mohammed will say another.
Lai made it clear in that the budget wasnt padded and denied all allegations, now Buhari is saying the opposite; which one should we believe?

mynd1:
Ok. God bless mr president.

Haters can wail for all we care.

President Muhammadu Buhari vowed late Tuesday in Riyadh that all those involved in the “padding” of the 2016 National Budget will face the most severe punishment.

Addressing the Nigerian Community in Saudi Arabia, President Buhari condemned the distortion of the budget proposals by entrenched interests.
The President said that the unauthorised alterations had completely changed the document from the one he presented to the National Assembly.

“The culprits will not go unpunished. I have been a military governor, petroleum minister, military Head of State and headed the Petroleum Trust Fund.
“Never had I heard the words “budget padding”. Our Minister of Budget and National Planning did a great job with his team. The Minister became almost half his size during the time, working night and day to get the budget ready, only for some people to pad it.

“What he gave us was not what was finally being debated. It is very embarrassing and disappointing. We will not allow those who did it to go unpunished," President Buhari vowed.

The President also assured members of the Nigerian community that his administration was working diligently to fulfil its campaign promises, particularly on security, unemployment, and corruption.

Reaffirming his government’s zero tolerance for corruption, President Buhari said that the war against corruption was a monumental task that he is determined to tackle successfully.

"We have zero tolerance for corruption and other unethical practices. We will deal decisively with anybody found wanting," he promised members of the Nigerian community.

President Buhari also used the opportunity of the gathering to brief Nigerians in Saudi Arabia on his administration’s efforts to end the Boko Haram insurgency and terrorism in Nigeria.

"Our armed forces have done a great job of dealing decisively with Boko Haram. We are collaborating with our neighbors in the operations of the Multinational Joint Task Force to handle security threats in the sub-region and we have significantly destroyed the capacity of the insurgents," the President said.

He also spoke on efforts being made to diversify the Nigerian economy, stressing that more opportunities are now open for local and foreign investors in the country.
