kaboninc: One question GMB and APC supporters haven't been able to answer is... the money to be recovered from corruption will start from which government? do we go back to 1985 and start probing from there, or do we start probing from Jonathan? Do we probe only PDP members? For example, Saraki who is being probed for corruption is being angled for senate presidency, do we wish allegations against him away or do we recover from him as well? Hoping on recoveries from corruption to augment budget shortfalls isn't really wise but let's see how GMB will achieve this miracle 9 Likes |

bolanto24: Who told you this lie? Obasanjo was pressured to do something about the degradation of Niger delta land and decided to grant the region 13 percent derivation on all oil production for a period of time to ensure that the ND land is cleaned up and development occurs but the ND leaders have decided to eat all funds given to them so I think it is about time we revisit the onshore/offshore dichotomy issue. |

Scholes007:you too tell me where did GEJ get the over 2tr naira he shared to PDP chieftains and ministers for his campaign, which you know by now he is demanding for the refund of that money. We are talking of over 2tr naira just for a campaign! You guys are here analysing the facts on ground of the sources of our income. Nigeria earns more than the trillions you are analysing here. There are just so many sources nigeria earns money that we don't know of and only God knows. So let's just keep our mouth shut and hope for the best from the incoming administration. If buhari really says 5k for each unemployed youth then he sure knows the reason why he says so because he has been in the system long enough to know what kind of money nigeria is generating anually. This old man has nothing to gain for him to tell us lies so that he becomes the president. You can all sense his desperation to right the wrongs of many of our past leaders including his own mistakes and make Nigeria great again. So at least give him space to be sworn in first. 1 Like |

Mykevp2p:Yeah.Accurate data base has always been our Achilles heel.I found it amazing that even with d pvc at d last elections, election riggers could circumvent d system using even open faced fraudulent means. But d fact is that our tax base just has to increase.Its curious that d colonialist and even our pre colonial institutions depended on rigorous enforcement of tax revenues to run regions and govt's, but in these modern times,we av more tax dodgers than payers. VAT too has to go up,even if slightly.I would have suggested a sectorial,differing scale increase: luxury and non essential items could go up to 15-20% while consumer goods can be 7.5% Leakages plugged Mining and agriculture should see heavy investments. Fuel subsidy should honestly go or be gradually phased out over a 4yr period.I would prefer outright stop because it would make prices to be competitive faster and heavy investment in refining industries which would ultimately even bring down domestic prices or at best keep them at current rates,sooner rather than later. Something drastic must be done about d cost of running our governments at all levels,its damn draining on d economy. Etc |

Obiagelli: Money is stolen but how much? 20 billion USD? I think we should be realistic here. To fight a disease, let's identify the cause. The best way to fight any disease is by prevention. I hope you agree. Secondly you sounded like borrowing was bad. That was why I said NO, it is not. Then again, this debate, we ought to have had it before now, during the campaigns. Why bring it now? Prolly you guys rode to victory on the hope that when you get there, you'll spark up debates like this and our responses will shape your programmes? Oby...... 3 Likes |

5.1 trillion naira from oil revenues and some fools beleive GEJ spent 2 trillion naira on campaigns while some more foolish once are calling 20 trillion naira. Even form the analysis it seems a country's earning and spending is just simple mathematics of 1 + 1. If you are ignorant, just accept it and learn from the right source. Truth is 97% of Nigerians don't know these things but time will definitely tell. Two years @ most then the true undeniable reality will set it. 10 Likes |

Rather than feed pupils, the government should be more concerned with providing an enabling environment for businesses and employment ultimately, so that children can be fed their parents and guardians. Many parents wouldn't want their children to eat food cooked by random strangers, in (very likely) unhygienic environments. How do they plan to manage portions? or take into consideration, children's specific dietary requirements - food allergies, health issues? Anyone with half a brain would know that this would be unnecessary and wasteful at this stage. 4 Likes |

ChinemeOkpan: What some of TANoids have forgotten is that unlike their principal's cupidity and constant pandering towards cleptobiosis, the APC / GMB campaign is based on recommendations sourced from technocrats, from the branding to the infographics, to photography. Heck, the social media is handled by 2 seasoned PR companies, one in the US and the other in the UK, to have a glimpse check GMB's tweets about the Kenyan attacks and you would see how social media should be used in governance. What they fail to realise is the fact that by defenestrating the wasteful orientation of the current dispensation, coupled with a dogged focus on improving the current economic situation, which includes security of lives and properties and improvement of the power generation, the income of the FG would naturally improve in proportion to resultant FDI (foreign direct investment). 3 Likes |

I won't even try to counter the oshodi economics obiagelli showcased above. The APC think-tanks know that our revenue this year won't be enough to finance the budget and other immediate needs hence we are looking at a budget of deficit (expenditure will exceed revenue). Therefore, it will be useless for us to start analyzing Oby's figures - it is meaningless to even talk about oil revenue as a source of financing our budget. The top hierarchy of the APC knows the revenue to be made from from oil and other sources of revenue this year won't be enough to finance the 2015 budget hence the reason why they are planning to raise taxes and VAT by the middle of the year! That's a shocker right. Just get ready to pay a VAT of between 10% - 15% and higher income taxes. I know some people will ask what this means. It simply means the price of every item you buy in the market now will go up as traders will find a way of passing this additional tax to buyers (consumers). Buhari did this same thing in 1984 and it failed, now he is doing it again. All welcome the new change!!! barcanista, anonimi, truckpusher, firefire, onatisi 10 Likes 1 Share |

Out of the expected 5.1 trillion from oil only 60% goes to Nigeria..the other 40% i believe goes to the oil companies. That gives us on about 3.1 trillion FIRS 4.7 trillion plus 3.1 trillion is only 7.8 trilion If 52% goes to FG budget - thats only about 4 trillion naira for the year FG has only 4 trillion with the calculation above 1 Like |

Factor in the Distribution of the Net based on Revenue Allocation Formula as a function of distribution to States and Local Government. Factor in teh Debt Management at current interest rate, also set aside funds as you like for External Reserves, excess crude Account, Subsidy, and do not forget to budget for emergency needs of the military if North decides to keep sponsoring terrorism and also the Fluctuation Marginal Difference from possible inflation. 5 Likes |

Nazeeboy: True talk, Nazeeboy!! When I see all these enemies of progress on nairaland, I feel like weeping for Nigeria because some Nigerians dont want the country to move forward simply because their candidate lost. I tell you - all the haters of Buhari on Nairaland will be disappointed if God uses Buhari to make things better in Nigeria and will rejoice if things don't go well under Buhari. Why can't all Nigerians come together and be hopeful for a better Nigeria, irrespective of whoever is in power?? If Nigeria becomes better, it will favour us and our future generations. Some Nigerians only want Nigeria to progress under the leadership of their own candidate or brother or kinsman! SO DISAPPOINTING! |
