The 2018 budget has been in their possession since November 2017. Why not make that their priority? |

GavelSlam:that’s more than 100million USD. The one afghan got has all the modifications...from 4th avionics to whatnot. So what’s the excuse here ? |
| Re: Row Over $496m Jets: Buhari Presents Documents, US Letter To NASS by GavelSlam: 9:28am On May 05, 2018 |
BedLam:Including armoury, training, support? Remember the Afghan consignment was bought by USA for the Afghan military. |

BedLam:They are being produced in both countries but the need to equip them with all the necessary military gadgets made USA the better choice. |

All this dust because nothing go under the table for them. Very clear explanation by the presidency. All the noise about expenditure not in the budget don hit sh.it for their face. All the state govs already approved $1B for internal security so why the double faced attitude.You could tell the people trying to pull down this country all in the name of power. When section 81 was quoted to say the president can give anticipatory consent all the demons of democracy came out to say the the money was not appropriated for. My question to them is what is the document endorsed by the national executive council, which is befor the senate, for. yeye everywhere |

BedLam:I have always wondered the same, but Embraer has a JV with a US military contractor making those planes. A Brazilian version could have been a lot cheaper given that it starts from $10m |
| Re: Row Over $496m Jets: Buhari Presents Documents, US Letter To NASS by BedLam: 9:34am On May 05, 2018 |
GavelSlam:And lead parts as well. So what’s the excuse as to why these ones cost more ? https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/latest-afghan-super-tucanos-cost-1745-million-442786/ |

authority2006:I will tell you why we don't just move on. We need to settle the constitutional position so that there is no ambiguity in the future. If he can appropriate $500 million why not $10 billion ?? The president has acted unconstitutionally and that must be acknowledged . He spent money unlawfully and unless we are saying this should continue that must be established. Even if he is not impeached then when he leaves office he can be jailed .He too can get a taste of what he is doing to Dasuki and Patience Jonathan I would be happy if the National Assembly move on by Not touching the matter at all. When he l jimihendrix:eaves office he w jimihendrix:ill still face th jimihendrix:e music. Immunity jimihendrix:lasts while you ar jimihendrix:e in office and jimihendrix:when you leave you can still be held accountable The fact is there is no excuse fo not consultiing the National Assembly other than that he decided he was going to act regardless. If there was a deadline so what? Why not consult them? No more phone? No more dinner? All those dinners he was organizing for them was for what? |

So Many Things In The Constitution Which The Govt Must Do For The Masses Are Abandoned And No Senator Is Talking Since They Arent Affected. It Is Now They Are Talking Cos Tips No Enter Their Chamber. Na God Go Purnish All Naija Politician Either Apc Or Pdp |

BigIyanga:I just think our leaders lack negotiation skills...apparently they lack leadership qualities. How can someone that’s spending their own money tell you the manufacturer puts a deadline on the delivery. If they do, then buy from others. It’s appalling. |

rusher14:If you read through, you will see where the FG said they are doing everything to stave off any impeachment. Which means they are scared because the National assembly can impeach him and heaven will not fall. |

The National Assembly members are simply after a share of money from the transaction. Is it really necessary to maintain two legislative houses at federal level? The senate is full of corruption and has outlived its usefulness. Those old governors will never allow it to work for the benefit of The Nigerian masses. |

goaldynman:Too mch insults in your post but, tht will not deter me from infrming you. The govt had already submitted a $1B security budget, of which this expenditure is part of, to the nationa assembly for approval. |

BedLam:There has to be a balance of trade. And besides, you can't compare US fitted systems to its Brazilian alternative. The difference in sophistication is high. My problem is not with buying from America. I have issues with the jets bought. We can get much better jets even from America. I just hope those shiny American helicopter gunships are part of the negotiation. |

aribisala0:Just the same way you jailed Obj, Yaradua and Jonathan for the same offence, right? Why do we like to play into the gallery in this country? Oh, it is Buhari/APC and everyone just realised that the constitution has been breached! Hence, the need to make scapegoat out of him. Abu Ibrahim (Katsina-APC), accused senators of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) of conspiring to impeach Mr Buhari. “I don’t think this exercise is worth it because we endorsed it to the U.S Congress. It was after we agreed in September that the U.S government now went back to give approval to the Executive to pay to their own government so they can go ahead and sell this equipment to Nigeria".- Saraki |
