BREAKING: INEC Budget: N/assembly Rejects N189bn, Insists On N143bn by zakim(op): 4:24pm On Aug 27, 2018
The National Assembly Joint Committee on Electoral Matters on Monday rejected the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) proposed budget of N189 billion, urging the electoral body to revert to the initial N143 billion earlier submitted by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The lawmakers stated this after a closed-door meeting of the Joint Committee chaired by Senator Suleiman Nazif (APC, Bauchi).

Nazif, who read out the resolution of the Joint Committee to newsmen in Abuja, said, "As you are aware, our last meeting was held on August 17.

"We decided to resume today August 27, to consider the harmonised budget of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

"The Joint Committee has sat and we have deliberated a position to adopt the N143 billion earlier presented to us by President Muhammadu Buhari.

"It is the wish of this Committee that INEC present the N143 billion as requested by Mr. President.

"This Committee therefore adjourns and will reconvene tomorrow by 1 pm to consider the N143bn INEC budget."

#46 billion excess is a lot of money

The reason they want saraki out so that they can install a rubber stamp assembly that will approve every crooked fund they present while the fake anti corruption crusader pretends as if he doesn't know what is happening.

Trouble looming. Mine is whatever they are fighting over, the masses will pay for it at the end of the day be it good or bad. So keep taking sides with either Buhari or Saraki that have secured the lives of their grandchildren generations to the 13th generation.
