Imagine GEJ campaigned with half of that..... this country would have been an history if he had won that 2nd term

This budget needs to be reversed. A budget where about 90% is for recurrent expenses isn't a good budget.

I advise GMB to quickly implement many recommendations of Orosanye's report on streamlining FG parastatals by scrapping and merging those seen as duplicates. In this way a lot of recurrent expenses will be available for more capital projects and also block some leakages.

Imagine a budget of only N27 billion for science and technology and N25 for works!

GEJ's regime was a complete error. Thank God he will soon be history.

So if anything is reported in the media it becomes true right? The fact that you can not reason and think critically on your own is what astonishes me. Tell me what is your level of education? How do you analyse situations? Do you just believe all the propaganda without thinking it true?

Well you are not to blame. It might be your upbringing.

As much as I there's no supplied evidence to support the 2tn claim, honestly if you know how much undeclared revenue is leaking through govt pocket, you won't have any difficulty imagining the frittering away of such sum. I'm not saying 2tn was spent, but it is naive to claim it is impossible.
