He should probe himself? Was he not the one that presented it?

The federal civil service is one of the most corrupt institutions in the country. It is good that the Minister denied knowledge of those figures. Some of them will not change until they are sent to prison. Ordinary Nigerians are the problem of the country.

How did they say he should promote propaganda or did we read different things? He was told to cater for relevant civilian information with reference to the civil war. Our don't you want to be genuinely informed?

North East: Senate Turns Down Budget Proposal For Information Ministry..


ABUJATHE Senate, yesterday, refused to treat the budget proposal for the Federal Ministry of Information due to lack of provision for media propaganda in the North East.

The Senate Committee on Information, which took the decision during the ministry’s budget defence, insisted that the ministry must not only rework but also re-present its budget with provisions for effective media propaganda in the North East.


The committee on information, headed by Senator Enyinaya Abaribe, PDP, Abia South, directed that the ministry should bring a budget that will cater for the needs of its media agencies. Abaribe’s directive was sequel to the observation raised by a member of the committee and senator representing Bayelsa North, Ben Bruce, who had decried the non inclusion of budget for media operations in the North East, in the wake of the Boko Haram insurgency. Bruce, in his remark, had pointed out that during the Nigerian Civil War, the media was effectively used to propagate relevant information. He therefore appealed that the Nigerian Television Authority, NTA, Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, FRCN, News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, and Voice of Nigeria, VON, should go and add the required component.

He said: “It would have made more sense for the information budget of the Army to be given to the Ministry of Information to equip these stations to be used by the military as a source of communication.

“For instance, if there is going to be an air raid in a particular area, we can warn the citizens to stay off that particular area".

Keep on defending the criminals.
I know you prefer to wail, cry, castigate and pull down. But of what use will all that be to you. Focus on solutions, not problems. If the budget is not passed as soon as possible, its all of us that will suffer it. Wailing has no economic value whatsoever!

That was just the caption. The writer has the discretion of choosing whatever suits him or her as a caption and his/her sentiments might come in. However, the body of the article which shows the actual comments of the lawmakers and nothing connotes their promoting/ encouraging propaganda.

PMD is a mistake.
I disagree with you for now, he doesn't need to write budget personally but if no one is fired after this higgyhagga, Imay reconsider your stance. lol

So must we pass crippled budget. It's better late and correct than early with errors.

Yes he doesn't have to write it personally but should he go through it to know what was written. How can you sign what you haven't read what if it is your death sentence. This is an act of super cluelessness.

president doesn't sign draft, only the final copy from NASS, he can't personnally read 1000 pages of budget, he has ministers who should ensure what he signed are correct, leaders drive policy, but for this gaffe, some people have to be sacked
