Amazing

The Change would be said to have materialized not by signing an attractive budget, but by ensuring that the signed budget is well implemented.

Ajala travel

True talk

junketer:
It took buhari 4 months to appoint ministers, it took buhari 6 months to present a budget but it only takes buhari few hours to jet out of nigeria. Guess he'll be the first to make use of the budget money by using it to fuel his jet to fly to france and do nothing there

WT. is he going to do in France again

I hope it all becomes a reality.

SlimmB:
This Mr president shaaa...

This man is lost in thought and doings...

God help 9ja

Actually!! He is not..

He is so focused and stubborn that he isnt willing to budge to compensate for unforseen happenings.. Example: The Fuel Scarcity and fall in Oil Prices.

IM tired of this "will sign" jhoor.
why cant he jus sign it

meanwhile, you want affordable data? jus view my profile

Guys please checkout my signature

going to make schengen visas more available to nigerians through france.

TPAND:
France! Again....

Guniness book of world records should be on stand by as Buhari would break the record soonest as the most travelled president within a year.

Come to think of it,i never paid attention to his frequent trips,but I think it's now worrisome.i suspect Ajala is always travelling for medical intervention

Kj

Who cares? If he likes,he can use it as pillow!!!

As part of the sacrifices we are asked to make I think there's no more need for the budget to be passed instead let the president replace the 2016 with 2018 while 2017 budget which is 'almost ready' should be sent to the NASS. Let our 2016 become one of the years 'the locust has eaten'.

France again

She added that they were presented with “clear deliverables, targets and indicators to ensure that ministries, departments and Agencies deliver on implementation.”

Beautiful.......... Reminds me of the terms that ALWAYS 'kept me on my feet' when i was a salesman; Deliverables, Targets, Key Performance Indicators, % Accomplishment etc

Every Minister will be on their toes as soon as they receive their allocations because they have target to accomplish, and their performances will be measured based on their Indicators at intervals. No excuses.
Now we know if the CHANGE is real or fake.

My brothers and Sisters...... I BELIEVE THERE IS HOPE FOR NIGERIA.

God bless Nigeria

Budget: FG outlines 34 priority projects

The Federal Government has set out “34 strategic priority programmes and projects” that it intends to achieve beginning with the 2016 budget.
Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed disclosed this to reporters after a cabinet meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

She said President Muhammadu Buhari was expected to receive the corrected version of the budget details from the National Assembly today or tomorrow.
Sources said the President would sign the budget immediately before he travels to France on Friday.
The minister said the 34 specific areas, which were grouped into four major objectives are governance and security; diversification of the economy; creating support for the poor and the vulnerable: as well as reflating the economy through investment.
She added that they were presented with “clear deliverables, targets and indicators to ensure that ministries, departments and Agencies deliver on implementation.”
According to the minister, the 34 priority areas needed to be implemented in 2016‎ are categorised into thematic areas are:
* To achieve and maintain a capital spend minimum of 30 percent annually with the objective to reflect the economy and enhance employment generation capacity for the productive sector.
* To achieve an appropriate exchange regime to achieve a predictable exchange rate by the end of 2016.
* To increase low interest lending to the real sector at single digit “maybe nine percent” in order to increase output and growth.
* (On diversifying the economy) To attain self-sufficiency in tomato paste in 2016 and rice production by 2018.
Nigeria spent $2.41 billion on rice importation between January 2012 and May 2015 and another $1bn on tomato paste importation.
*To increase local production of maize, soya beans, poultry and livestock and to stop import. The deadline for these to be announced later in the year.
*To expand the agro- allied sector to intensify local production of cassava, cocoa, cashew nuts, fruits and sesame seeds.
* To make use of 5,000 hectares arable land ‎in 12 River Basin Development Authorities and to utilise 22 dams for commercial farming.
Priorities under power, rails and road
*To optimise up to 7,000 megawatts installed capacity with the associated infrastructure in order to enhance investment, productivity and employment.
*To complete the Kaduna-Abuja-Ajaokuta ‎railway lines in 2016.
*To commence the construction of the Lagos - Kano standard gauge rail line and also to finalize the negotiation regarding the Calabar-Lagos rail line.
The objective of this is to increase availability of mass transit, to relief pressure on road infrastructure.
*To undertake the rehabilitation and construction of 31 major projects and restore the degraded sections of some major high ways and improve connectivity over a distance of 210,093 kilometres through public works maintenance, Public Private Partnership (PPP) and other interventions.
*To adopt and execute comprehensive national oil and gas policy which is supposed to be the road map for the petroleum industry development diversification as well as privatisation.
*Sets a three-year deadline to achieve self-sufficiency in refined petroleum products‎ and to become a net exporter of petroleum products.
*To push for the passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB).
*(Ease of doing business) Sets target to move 20 places up the ranking from 169 to 149 by fast-tracking business approvals, acquisition of land titles, issuance of visas for persons seeking to come into the country do business.
*To invest in the lives of our people by implementing various social projects covering health and education.
* Government to rehabilitate 5,000 primary health centres in 5,000 wards this year to deliver affordable health care services to Nigerians as close as possible to their homes.

Chai there is no country Buhari will not visit before end of 4 years tenure.

na wa!

If just 50% of the above can be achieved;

Nigeria would hit a trillion dollar GDP in 5 years or less.

Unemployment will be greatly reduced.

Patriotism will be re-enshrined.

Queues at foreign embassies for visas will be reduced = less migration = brain drain checkmated.

The bar for the art of governance will be highly raised.

PDP will have to re-emerge as a new party to compete.

The gov't with good infrastructure, honesty, implementation, smart policies, and services can make a minimum of $3 every day on the average from a 100 million Nigerians =$300m*30= $9B/month (that is 5-7 times what we presently get from oil sales)!!!

Lemme keep this in my achieve in case this government get even close to achieving this in the next four yrs... I may run for presidency!

buhari 2 dey travel,very soon anoda word 4 travel go be buhari

Jonathan sign 2015 budget May 2015, check your record.

Does he really have sense.. ?

and someone toiled to pay your school fees yet this is all you have to say after reading through the post.

Buhari may be the richest President in the world before his 4 year tenure elapse.

This government is not transparent with its use of funds especially recovered funds, current earnings by the Federal govt. though Gej govt. wasn't transparent either.

But this government owes excellent delivery to the people as the people have risked everything. All we hear about is that xyz amount need to be borrowed, "What happens to recent Govt earnings, recovered loot, current earnings, treasury balance, funds from confiscated assets, revenues from port authorities and other ministries"?
Kemi Adeosun should emphasise on utilising internally generated revenues in funding the budget as it is more than sufficient, she should keep the word "borrowing" aside for now. Get all the Federal government loop holes sealed especially places like Lagos State then let me see why Nigeria wont progress.

Hmmmm terrible country.
