₦airaland Forum

President Muhammadu Buhari left Kenya yesterday to Ethiopia where he attended an African Union Heads of Government meeting. Back home in Nigeria, the federal executive council (FEC) met at the State House to discuss effective implementation of the budget.

A lot is riding on an effective implementation of the budget this year, as the FG believes that it has the potential to stimulate the economy, despite the massive amount of pork which have been discovered therein. The budget is currently being deliberated upon in the national assembly and is not expected to be passed until March.

Meanwhile, at the National Economic Council meeting held 2days ago, which was also presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and had state governors in attendance, the budget was a notable part of the agenda, with NEC discussing ways to ensure that the entire capital expenditure component of the budget is implemented in the face of dwindling oil revenue. NEC considered reintroducing tolls on federal roads and expanding the tax net. They however ruled out increase in taxes this year.

if its only the fact that prof hasnt been found inciting any group against the other like dumbosambo who told hausas(moslem) that yemi has 10churches and such enemy of islam.

If its only the fact that yemi is an accomplished brillant prof and san who has thought at the highest level and represents us at any gathering
unlike samboribobo who has nothing to show as a semi literate who organised burning of his own certificate.

SUPERPACK:
