boss! this people are not serious fa

This budget has now been turned into political histrionics. A political game between the executive, the legislature and other interests. The economy of this nation is on the brink of collapse. Nigerians are suffering. Government seems less concerned.

Expect another episode after two weeks.
I weep for this nation.
It's quite unfortunate.

This change seems to be a mirrage.

According to the lawmaker, usually the details are not sent to the President with the estimates but noted that the President reserves the right to insist that it be sent.

Why is this the norm?

& why should that take two weeks to perfect? Are they deaf & dumb to the yearnings of their constituents?

God, what kind of liabilities are these "lawbreakers"!!

Finally this APC government has won the award. They have been certified the most useless government in this history of this nation.
