No amount of heat or pressure would distract buhari no amount of opposition. Would make him change his mind.....seems you don't know fulani people....if they endure the heat of d sun,hunger,rain,evil spirit attacks,snake bites in the forest while taking care of their cows then. I guess the wailing community is still small.....those criticising buhari will clap nd tank GOD for him at the end.......am slow. because I don't want to make mistakes...PMB 2015

They want him to ride in an unsecured car so that they can assassinate him.....you people should go and ask Russia/USA the price of their presidents cars and how. Much it. Cost to maintain them......#teamlooters/waileers
was buari elected so he could buy cars for himselfhuh

EQ[color=#006600][/color]UALLY ODD IS THE N362M ALLOCATION FOR WILDLIFE CONSERVATION IN 2016, IN PLACE OF THE N24. 6M VOTED FOR THE SAME CATEGORY LAST YEAR, INCLUDING THE PURCHASE OF EXOTIC ANIMALS. IRONICALLY, THE DIFFERENCE IN THE FIGURES MAKES JONATHAN’S GOVERNMENT LOOK SAINTLY, QUITE APART FROM THE DUBIOUS CATEGORY WHICH THIS PARTICULAR ALLOCATION IS MEANT TO SERVE.....

Is it crocodiles to eat those who gave 5% votes? hmmm grin

[size=18pt]This is what we call "SERIOUS CHANGE IN THE AIR". Baba Jona, will be laughing wherever he is now. APC/Buhari supporters are becoming blind, deaf and dumb in my office. Consoling themselves with ostensible talks of hopeless hope[/size]

OK
BUHARI SHOULD TREAD CAREFULLY

HE IS FAST LOSING THE SUPPORT AND TRUST OF MILLIONS OF NIGERIANS WHO VOTED FOR HIM

THE SAME MISTAKE THE EX PRESIDENT GOODLUCK MADE.

CORRECT ME IF AM WRONG.....BUT I THINK AS PEOPLE STEP INTO ASO ROCK,THEY LOSE TOUCH OF REALITY AND BEHAVE ABNORMALLY.

MAY IT IS THE AFFLUENCE IN ASO ROCK THAT MAKES THEM FORGET THAT SOME PEOPLE GO TO BED HUNGRY

JUST THEY WAY PEOPLE VOTED FOR HIM MASSIVELY, HE CAN BE SHOWN THE WAY OUT TOO

A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE, A FEW FOR THE FOOLISH
You haven't seen anything yet. I told ppl last year that by January they will start smelling pepper ,with what is on ground now ,2 years from now all that voted and supported buhari will regret even seeing his face and name on the ballot papers. By this next year ending majority of south west apc members in dullardihno cabinet will be pushed out and then the real monster buhari will emerge .
We warned Nigerians about him,but Nigerians kept their brains in their anuses at that time and kept on shouting change change .

Just Wait and see

Abii oo... All we need is CHANGE, and for even Tinubu's newspaper to attack the budget's extravagance, that is a sure sign that things have started changing in the Nigerian political scene. But by the way, why do Nigerians always expect a newspaper to lick Buhari's a*s simply because it is owned by Tinubu?

One thing I know for sure is that unlike what we had in the past where such sensible criticism would be ignored or labelled 'an attack on the president,' we now have a leader who will give all ears to this sort of expose. I am very sure that unlike what was obtainable in the past, these crazy budget figures will definitely be reviewed downwards for the benefits of Nigeria and Nigerians.

The unfortunate thing is that I expected PDP (the main opposition) to be the ones championing this cause of criticising this budget. It's obvious however that PDP and their supporters are more interested in chasing mundane things like 'freedom for Father Dasu-kristmas.'
d nation is attacking buari because they ar broke. their newspaper sales has nosdive in recent months.

Now this is constructive criticism, whoever put those silly figures in the budget should be flogged and the presidency needs to change them ASAP. Nigerians should come out and fight, I am an unrepentant 'Sai Buhari' chanter. PS; PDP and Olisah Metuh should shut their holes on this matter patriotic citizens are discussing.
bro I am with you 100%
Buhari should make the necessary amendment to the Budget.

I support Buhari
I support nations for this constructive criticism

I couldn't agree more.

If the story of the president withdrawing the budget from NASS is true, then it must really be a courageous and honorable act. That budget needs to reflect the spirit of CHANGE else the government will be surprised how quickly they loose credibility and force their loyal supporters to the sidelines or opposition.
yeah

He can't and won't cut it . People can die,shed their blood ,cry or wail.buhari won't budge. Have you forgotten what Abacha said that if it remains 1000 people in Nigeria he will still rule,the same mentality is in buhari head .
He won't budge for any bloody civilian mentality or opinion.

Re: The Nation Newspaper Attacks Buhari's Budget by blackboy(m): 12:48pm On Jan 05, 2016
Well, being in opposition is easy. When PMB came in one ofvthe Villa staff recommended new vehicles. They thought he wanted to make money I guess, PMB said he was dine with those left behind by GEJ.

During the PDP era there was complaint that there were govt agencies using BMW as official cars and the then govt refuted it. But then I knew it was a lie cause Customs and Police I see using it then and now.

Well, I guess this administrat8on is settling in well and is mastering how Nigeria understands being in power. Spend the money!!!

Blame game is cheap and the signs of an incompitent leader. Roll those sleaves up and lets get to work. Nigeria can work nigeria is rich
Re: The Nation Newspaper Attacks Buhari's Budget by Olaolufred(m): 12:51pm On Jan 05, 2016
THE NATION IS PRACTICING WHAT JOURNALISM IS.

NO HUMAN BEING CAN BE RIGHT ALL THE TIME.

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM HELPS A LOT.

SO, I GIVE KUDOS TO BUHARI AND THE NATIONS FOR THIS MATURITY.

TO ANYONE WHO SEES FIGHT, YOU COULD EVEN TURN WHAT YOU ARE SEEING TO WAR. IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO WISH.

It's plain ridiculous. Wailers must wail. If news reports favour the FG, na complain, if they do not, na still complain. i don't know how they expect totally drastic change like we are not in a democracy.

U see your life, so you are absolving the presidency of this flaw and apportioning blame to some others. From whose office did the budget emanate? Who presented the budget to the NASS? Criticize your "sai Baba' when necessary so that he can sit up and do his job. If he's not physically and mentally fit enough to meticulously go through many-page documents, he should resign and spare us a national disgrace.
The dullard presented an unprecedented astronomical budget in the face of dwindling economy and yet he cannot justify some figures and inclusion of some items.
whoever now excludes the presidency or the the president? Abeg tell me how I absolved the presidency or face the issue and stop being a psycophant

this is just the preamble. after all the Nation has joined the waillers. as for BIAFRA issue, is it ur headache? don't worry, biafrans will be all laughing when the center can no longer hold. I love the way things are unfolding.
Re: The Nation Newspaper Attacks Buhari's Budget by mapet: 1:29pm On Jan 05, 2016
I am surprised that most of the commentators here are ignorant or plain silly. Budgets are meant to be scrutinized and criticized. It is healthy for the society. That's what makes us better collectively. The system is evolving and those who prepare budget will know henceforth that they have to tightening their belt.

Secondly, it's not everything in the budget you must implement. you could realign your budget to reflect the realities on ground. What we have currently is a budget proposal and not the signed budget, so anything deemed not practical or beneficial can be expunged before a final signoff

I will imagine, something this basic is lost on many wailers, right from their leadership to the dolts on NL
