We don’t know who will sign 2017 budget – Lai Mohammed


Even with Professor Yemi Osinbajo in the saddle as Acting President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the absence of President Muhammadu Buhari, the Presidency is still confused about who would assent to the 2017 budget.


The same situation applies to the swearing-in of the two new Ministers-designate who had long been screened by the Senate.


Fielding questions from State House correspondents at the Federal Executive Council, FEC meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Wednesday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed said that the decision on who signs the Appropriation Bill into law would be decided when the document is finally transmitted to the Presidency.


“When it is transmitted to the Presidency, that decision will be taken”, he said.


He however said that an advanced copy of the budget has been received by the Minister of Budget and National Planning.


It will be recalled that President Buhari left the country on March 7 to attend to his health in London.

Nigeria is finished,u don't know why we will elect an old man who should be enjoying his retirement to govern the affairs of 170million+

what's my duty, bring it lemme sign it my friend

You know today someone used this analogy to differentiate between Nigeria and the USA

The USA is as "A Company" in every sense of the word because every element works for the good and betterment of the organization, they see the greater good and work to achieve a good image for themselves and in extension their generation unborn (new employees), they have a good working system though imperfect they work towards improving it, every single citizen does, they know their history, present and these help shape their future.. they have a mission, vision statement, quality controls and standards though even more ethnically diverse (Arguable) than our beloved country Nigeria they are still more united.

Nigeria on the other hand, is run like A Hotel.. when you check in you only care about it while you are staying there, you don't care about the hotels history neither, you could f.uck and cum all over the sheets, after ordering meal from room service you could eat and dump the leftover carelessly, after having your bath you use the towel to wipe your body afterwards if you like, you could use it to clean your shoes and traveling bag, after all you won't need it anymore, condoms on the floors, cigarette roaches on the table and as if all these aren't enough, when leaving you steal the bathroom soap and toilet paper.
