Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has described the speech by President Muhammadu Buhari as a flop and the 2020 budget as shallow.

President Buhari on Tuesday presented the 2020 budget to a joint session of the National Assembly.

Fani-Kayode, a popular critic of the Buhari-led administration, said the budget “itself is shallow, inexplicable, confusing and uninspiring.”

He tweeted:

The budget speech was a flop and the budget itself is shallow, inexplicable, confusing and uninspiring.
May God deliver Nigeria from @MBuhari and his @OfficialAPCNg.

May God give the president wisdom especially now. it's not easy to govern Nigerians.

Drink water and wail more .

Hmm

1.If FFK was in power, he would have passed similar budget.

2.The truth is, oil is at $58.81 per barrel today. We need it at $140 per barrel to have a budget free of borrowing and a budget that would be enough for all our needs. Last time oil was at that position was 11 years ago (and that is why GEJ was borrowing too....even with oil above $100 in his regime, it still was not enough)

3.Government can raise more money for capital projects by cutting expenses in the National Assembly, and jobs in the civil service. But people like FFK will cry that government is reducing the power of democracy, and is also making millions of Nigeria suffer.

4.Government could also raise a lot of money by cutting subsides. But since FFK will then say that Nigerians are suffering too much to pay for fuel at N300 per liter (the same price people pay in Ghana, Sierra leone, liberia, Niger, etc...who are poorer than us, with the exception of Ghana)....

5.This APC budget is bad. But if PDP was in power today, faced with the fact that we are losing $80 dollars per barrel of oil we sell, the budget would still be the same.

My beef with APC and PDP is that when they are in opposition, they cry out loud to make the other side look bad. When they are in power, dem chop money. Real solutions, nothing for them.

This one just loves making noise.
As if his opinions even matter

It is shallow because there's no allocation for him and his other idiot Remo. Awon werey somebody, if dem find them one small post for Aso villa gate now, they will be the one to pay pasuma and kwam 1 to sing bubu's name to high heavens.

FFK, thou I'm not fan of APC but this FFK is a fvcking critic. Don't take him serious.

As much as buhari and his cohorts are failing us,

FFK has no right to speak, he is part of the people that brought us to this mess

This FFK needs to stop the noise and call out other ready to work people to do some thing, we cant fold harms and be looking.

Nuclear Reactors at it again!

Nigeria deserves everything she gets now

80 billion for water 42 billion dir education wtf mhen

He just went through the budget to criticize it.
Nothing more
PDP has no moral justification to lambast the current government while they squandered the nations resources during there own time.

PDP should let us hear word jare, go and write your own and pass it on twitter


Twitter President Atiku should forward budget DM to twitter Senate President Saraki so that twitter Senator Ben Bruce and Sheu Sani can debate it

..

FFK is a useless bastard.

What did he achieve when Obasanjo made him a minister? All he did was embezzle funds, snort cocaine and carry olosho (one of whom he eventually married).

Nigeria wont have to spend more on vacination for cholera, as there would be water for basic hygen in northwestern nigeria

irrigation farming from dams would boost agriculture and power

Nigeria’s Poverty Population Hits 94 Million —OXFAM
From 91,501,377 in April to 94,470,535 people in September.
2,969,158 people move into extreme poverty in 6months.

Oxfam International says no fewer than 94,470,535 million people in Nigeria live below extreme poverty line, according to the latest World Poverty Clock.

Oxfam International Country Director in Nigeria, Constant Tchona, said this on Monday in Abuja at the organisation’s Programme Quality Review and Planning meeting with the theme “On the Road To Becoming an Influencing Hub”.

Mr Tchona decried that this number of people live below the benchmark of N684 per day.

“The number of people that live below extreme poverty level as at April was 91,501,377, making Nigeria the World Capital of Poverty.

“As if that was not bad enough, at the moment, six months later, the number has jumped up to 94,470,535 people.

“What this means is that we have added 2,969,158 people more into extreme poverty.

“By comparison, this number is more than the population of Gambia and Cape Verde combined.

“At the current rate, Nigeria is not only off track to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) but many now believe that up to 25 per cent of the world’s extreme poor will live in Nigeria by 2030.

“Nigeria total population is 200,963,599 people according to the Worldometer and is to become the world’s third largest country by 2050,” he noted.

While describing the burden as pathetic, the country director noted that Nigerian government was aware of the rate of poverty in the land.

Mr Tchona quoted President Muhammadu Buhari’s intention to “lift 100 million Nigerians out of poverty over the next 10 years and set them on the path to prosperity’’ to “fundamentally shift Nigeria’s trajectory and place it among the World’s Great Nations’’.

According to him, if this is achieved, Nigeria will shock the world to achieve the SDGs.

“Now the question is what is the role of the citizens and how that role will be played in supporting both elected and appointed officials in achieving this lofty goal.

“What could be the role of International NGOs like Oxfam on that journey?” he asked.

He noted that in order to effectively make impact in poverty reduction, the organisation would have to reminiscent on its programmes to ensure they were not against Oxfam well established quality standard.

He stressed the need to expedite actions, adding that more people are getting into extreme poverty as at the moment.

Mr Tchona explained that the meeting was to reflect on what that role of the organisation in support for government and citizens could be in order to reduce the burden of poverty.

He said the meeting was also to explore ways to strengthen business support to power up Oxfam execution capability while ensuring operational excellence.

Typical negative minded person... i dont blame you, you have suffered so much bad governance and corruption under PDP that you naturally think everyone wants to rip you

continue dwelling on your ignorance, 80 billion is just $220million for a country of 200 million citizens to provide water for a year
