Make I write am 4 pidgin make u fit understand wetin. I mean

U talk say Buhari proposed 15Billion higher dan una "hero" own proposal 4 year 2015, na him I ask weda the Buhari's higher proposal na 4 dis new Budget wey the NASS just passed abi na where u take see am? No be after the oga presido accept sign am na him we go take see the new content since e be say NASS get power to take change some figures wey oga prezido propose?

Again, I come talk say if u claim say Buhari ASO villa proposal pass oga "hero" own with 15Billion, say make u jeyjey show me link wey I go take confam am sharp sharp.

Gradually u will learn but sincere ignorance is very dangerous!
I know your type, too thick-skulled to process simplest things in life.
You are still unable to understand there is no such thing as passed budget unless it's signed by the president. This hasn't happened, therefore everybody is talking about proposed budget by GMB
So your hero proposed to spend N15bn more and you are asking me if NASS stopped him??
So if NASS slashed his proposed budget, then GMB would take the credit for being frugal??
You clearly lack encephalon to reason simple things through!!

Its a normal thing to ask....

Most states even have commissioners Quarters.

They are ministers of the FRN.
Common small companies in Nigeria like intels staff are given accommodation....PMB should please arrange accommodation for these guys...
So 4 million Naira is not good enough annually?just for accomodation,are you sure you read the post or responding just from comments?

Before they became ministers, how were they surviving in Abuja? grin #Useless People ...#WhoDemEpp
before they became ministers, they were not living in ABJ except those who were former senators.
Buhari invited over to work with him, he should give them those comfort they need for optimum perfomance.
If his 16years old daughter could enjoy the comfort of 1st class in BA, then these men with the job of “fixing“ nigeria should also be given some level of comfort too.

Reference:
You just don't seem to get it. Its like you fail to realise why he walked out. The problem this man has like some Nigerians do is a failure to come to terms with what they are. Like a parent who says I will not permit you to do this and then leaves without explanation, without reasoning. He is indirectly saying, go get if from your mother, brothers, boyfriend, etc. He knows these people just pretend to sit at meet but in themselves are pure blooded Nigerians. He knows they will 'find' that 20million but doesn't want to be a part of it. I'm really sorry but the only people who can fix Nigeria is Nigerians.
You belittle your faculty for daring to think on behalf of the President. He was pissed off, period! Nigerian political appointees are spoilt. If you don't have accommodation to stay, resign and go back home!

Let kick start the budget and see the level of enforcement. Everyone will soon reset and get what he deserves.

AlanSugar:
Pls what is good about this dumb idea? Any property confiscated by efcc serves only as exhibit over a pending court case and u expect government to touch it before the court's desicion? Building houses for ministers for now is no consideration cus there's no money for that and would be utterly expensive! If he had any suggestion, it would've been to say any person to be considered for ministerial position in future must have accommodation in Abuja as a prerequisite for the appointment. If hunters have learnt to shoot without missing, that's cus birds had decided to fly without perching. We need change! No more frivolous spending.
True

CoolAmbience:
Government had Ministers Hill in Maitama and Ministers Quarters in Mabushi.

They were all sold under President Obasanjo's Monetization policy.

Current ministers must make do with what has been made available to them, which is in line with RMAFC Act, they may also make cuts from their other allowances such as furniture and motor vehicle to augment the NGN4milllion allocated to accomodation, otherwise honourably resign.
I agree with you. let them start learning how to manage.

It's better to be informed and still afraid than to be uninformed and hopeful.
The budget is only 30% capital expenditure while 70% is pure chop and expenses money.
Greatest chunk of chop money-N500bn is for GMB to spend as he pleases- on social program or his initiative with no oversight! He doesn't have any existing structure to manage this fund administratively. This is another way to reward his cronies and those who sponsored the election.
Meanwhile Fashola's ministry and education all get about N430bn respectively while a program without any minister gets N500bn.
This is the easiest way to transfer wealth to his cronies..

if that is done, the next thing that will be is them requesting 10million per person for refurbishments

they should know how it feels to live in .middle income neighbourhoods.
I quite agree with you. these are austere times. they should lead by example.

Obasanjo monetized accommodation for senators and sold the official houses cheap to them. If you build for ministers now, that might be what you get someone doing again in future.
Yeah, you are right. funny country. no continuity of policy.

PMB is a stereotype military retiree that is still overwhelmed by the vestiges of colonialism.He needs to learn to be flexible in this day and time if not nothing will be achieved in the next four years.This is a president that has no cordial relationship with the legislature and he is now turning on his executive.I pity him oh,he is fight too many wars at the same time.
And ready to battle judiciary for not granting him kangaroo verdicts..
Didn't he walk out on Chibok Girls Group? Doesn't he even know how to negotiate?

6months to appoint ministers,budget has not
been signed after a year pmb emerged
victorious at the pools.If he does not increase
this accomodation allowance for his cabinet
members he may likely not achieve anything for
the next two quaters because these ministers
may claim that their inability to secure
conducive accomodation is what will frustrate
implementation of the change agender.

the ministers had better sort themselves out.

now they can have a taste of what it is like for the common man.

but I think the federal govt. should have like an estate of 3-5bedroom flats built for ministers.

that way they won't come and be asking for furniture allowance tomorrow.
Are you not aware that previous ministers went with the official quarters? SMH

Where did you find out that his daughter travelled on tax payers money? He can what ever he want with her child as long as we are not paying for it.

We don't have a clueless president if they don't perform they will be fired watch out it is not a permanent position he is going to be scrutinising them once the budget is signed.

Why? Here in D.C Senators roommate with each other in small apartments. Why are they scared to live amongst the people they govern? Is there something bad they think they've done? Until Nigeria removes money as an incentive to serve the Nation things will never get done right. Buhari is a blessing to Nigerians, they just haven't realized it yet.
