Senate President Godswill Akpabio and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abass have been accused of padding the 2022 Supplementary Appropriation Act with not less than N9 billion each.

Let's be real folks! Is any reasonable person here surprised at this behavior? This is exactly what happens when you have the fox guard the hen house.

the previous government you supported did not do it ,that’s why it’s a problem of a new government.

I believe in this new government but that does not make it perfect ,the citizens need to make more suggestions to make it better .
Which previous government did I support? And when we make more suggestions to the government, people like you will come out to fight us for the same government, you can keep believing in this government, for me I have known even before they came in that they will fail.....

Can you employ someone like Tinubu to head your father's company and vouch that he will not steal from your father's company?

By the time tinubu and his goons finish with Nigerian treasury looting nothing would be left for the country, we always give way to criminals to rule us and we disturb God for progress and prosperity like other big nations blacks are really a cursed race
Re: Akpabio, Speaker & 2 Others Padded Tinubu’s Palliative Budget - Sahara Reporters by Ilekokonit: 9:22pm On Aug 13, 2023
Why won't they pad the budget with 9 billion naira each when they know there will be no consequences because the thief in chief is now in charge of the Nigerian treasury.

Only God knows how much Tinubu Teflon Don and his wife Remi Tinubu have already stolen for themselves just like Tinubu has been stealing in Lagos since 1999 till date.

I said it before he was sworn in and I still believe that give Tinubu just 2 days in charge of the Nigerian Treasury and he will be richer than Nigeria and now that he has been in charge for 2 whole months, I shudder to think how much Tinubu has already stolen from our collective patrimony.

Based on his Looting (past and present) in Lagos, I've never trusted and will never trust Tinubu near anything called Public Purse.

Despite they know that Akpabio is unrepentant robber, they still went ahead and made him the senate president. His antecedents as the minister for Niger Delta commission is still there and we know he may be prosecuted very soon. There is no way u can have people like Akpabio in government and expect the country to run smoothly or move forward. Let them run the government the way they want it. God will not shame his children.
If Akpabio is an unrepentant robber, then Tinubu is the devil incarnate when it comes to stealing from the treasury. Just ask Lagosians (the richest sate in Nigeria) what Tinubu has stolen from their treasury and continues to steal till today since 1999 and you will see that Akpabio is a child when it comes to stealing.

Business as usual all of them from buhari to tinibu have been doing the same thing nothing unusual here. Abpabio knows that nothing will happen that's why he is so confident to approve it he is just taking his own turn like the way others before him have done.

Akpabio has not become something else. That's what he has always been. Go back and review his history. Up to the time of his pilfering by proxy at the NDDC.

Akpabio has really become something else

Anyways there’s no way they would have succeeded with the budget padding without Tinubus consent

Criminal president and his gang members

No Nigerian politician is alright upstairs.

Anyone that can steal the money meant for looking after the disabled and the elderly and the pensioners, money for building children's hospitals and equipping it and buying medicine for sick kids can NOT be alright upstairs.

In a civilized country, the whole lot of Nigerian Politicians will be in prison and will be barred from holding public office for LIFE.

He has become something else? Akpabio that has 90billion naira case with EFCC since 2015 and his sins were forgiven when he joined APC.

You guys wanted to teach Obi a lesson so you allowed criminals to take over leadership,
you'll learn the hard way. You don't know what you've done to yourselves
Our Labour just begun.

you’re stupid and fatherless for mentioning my father .

To go to the point ,yes I can hire someone like Tinubu .

Also ,there’s difference between constructive criticism and the destructive criticism you hate-filled losers are always doing .

If you are asking me which previous government you supported that didn’t implement the separation of power policies then it means you’re always in the opposition since the inception of democracy in Nigeria except you’re a gen Z .

Lastly ,I’m reiterating that I believe in President Tinubu and he has not failed ,in fact ,he’s making the right decisions since he’s been declared winner .

But wait a bit!
How do we call these projects allotted to some communities "Palliative" I don't understand. How does these projects cushion or ameliorate the effect of the subsidy removal? Maybe I don't understand what palliative represent. E go better.

One simple question that required a simple answer brought about all these, wow grin

Anyway Tinubu has failed even before starting because the same Tinubu brought Buhari to power and supported him twice even after failing in his first term, and you want me to believe Tinubu is doing the right thing grin

next time you will not bring someone’s father to an argument,if you don’t respect your own father ,respect others father .

If its because Tinubu brought Buhari(a supposed failure) makes Tinubu a failure as president is your only argument,then you don’t have an argument because that’s not an action he performed as a president but as a party chieftain.

Tinubu has not made a wrong call since he became the president of Nigeria.

So nobody can ask you question about your father? grin you will call it insult abi?

Oya, a close friend of yours brought someone to manage your father's business, the first4 years he failed, your friend then advised you to keep him for another 4 years that he will revive the business, after 4 years again he incurred so much debt.

Your close friend then comes and tells you that the reason why he sent that guy to mange your father's business was because he wanted to manage your father's business after 8 years of that guys turn that damaged your fathers business that it is his turn to manage your father's business, he further told you that that was the agreement he had with the guy he brought to manage your father's business for 8 years that destroyed your father's business ...

would you give your friend your father's business to manage after knowing all these?
