₦airaland Forum

President Bola Tinubu has presented a ₦1.78 trillion budget proposal for the Federal Capital Territory to the National Assembly.

Tinubu, in a letter read on the floor of the Green Chamber on Tuesday by Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, urged the lawmakers to fast-track its passage to facilitate critical development projects in the nation’s capital.

Tinubu stated that the budget presentation was in compliance with Section 299 of the Nigerian Constitution, which empowers the president to lay the FCT’s budget before the legislature.

In his letter, the president emphasised that the proposed budget would boost key sectors, including health, social welfare, agriculture, and employment.

“The passage of the budget would facilitate investment in health and social welfare, increase agricultural production, and improve the creation of jobs,” the letter read in part.

Giving a breakdown of the estimates, Tinubu noted that 85% of the total allocation would be directed toward completing ongoing infrastructure and development projects, while the remaining 15% would fund new initiatives.

He appealed to the parliament to accelerate the passage of the budget proposal, saying, “I urge the National Assembly to give this budget the urgent attention it deserves, in the interest of accelerating development within the FCT.”

-Kiss the truth!

FCT is now running properly now.

TiLOOTbu has come to steal, kill and destroy Nigeria

Budget that will still keep the poor poorer and the thieves richer

I thought this should be done by wike

The money will be stolen too

How many times?
Budget, supplementary, overshoot etc
Just stealing avenues

Let's see the details first. After reading previously Aso rock needs solar. That alone will eat up the budget. Till then I'm not too excited.

OK, time for Wike to take his share from the cake

There is so much money in this government than before so also the level of corruption.

Looted already same story as usual until 2031 I pity the poor

Him add account or ma drop opay

They have started gathering campaign money for 2027.
We are watching.
Politics is very lucrative business.

Aso rock solar project isn't inclusive

He will give Wike all these money and one day Wike will stabb him at his back and we will laugh very loudly.

Can a leopard change her spots?

A man that stabbed Jonathan and Peter Odili?


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤑🤣🤣🤣

God, they finally provide enough food for Wike and his traveling agents. Wike will be feeling on top of the world currently. You will begin to hear different award of contract just to loot abatedly. Tinubu is truly the messiah of this country. We will not remember our name by the time this corrupt man finish with this country.

You are right👍no doubt,with Hon.Wike,in charge doing good there!
•But my Observation is that - Is this Not Sane Abuja that Cannot Fend For Her Own Budget - that Lies was Sold To NIGERIANS - As A Federal Capital - by the then Military Junta, Supported By the Southern -People- who took it - Hooks ,Lines and Sinker,but it is now glaring that All We're Lies-that Lagos Was Full and Congested,Full of Crimes,etc- Was Deceptively Rubbish and Nonsense!
Are there No Crimes, Dirty and even Terrorists Operating in Abuja by many Headsmen causing mayhem in Abuja today?
But Lagos Is Moving in an Unprecedented Development and manners - From Land to the Sea ⛵, Train 🚆 and Air.
It will Continue to Grow from Strength to Strength.
•All those Evil Collaborators will fail ,for its just a matter of time as ' Water 🌊 No Get Enemy '

The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer., what a country., when are we going to get someone like president IBRAHIM TRAORE of burkina faso to rule this shit hole of a country.

Everyone is just milking the country, no plan for the people of the commoners, it is so pathetic.
