This budget is frightening and should not be passed. The expected growth rate of only 1.9% is further distressing when considering the size.

This budget is dead on arrival. It is delusional at best

T.A Orji, Kalu Orji and Abaribe were once governor, deputy governor and Chief of Staff of Abia. Ask him the impact of the budget they passed during their time on the people of Abia state. He sha want to talk so that his gullible followers will say the minority leader is talking. Ask him whether his state and the kerosene man get budget. Yeye party that can't even complete their national Secretariat.

Hi
jahsharon:





He is mad. His madness will lead him to early grave. Tell him that his forefathers cannot dare look at Buhari straight in the eyes. Maybe he wants to die young like his parents.

Please shut up.... grin

Note for the senator

1.Oil is at $59 dollars per barrel today

2.We need oil to be at $140 per barrel before we can reduce taxes, and stop borrowing.(For the uninformed, see this article HERE)

3.Bubu is bad , I know....but the truth is, since he took office , oil has hovered between $75 and $30 per barrel. So borrowing has been in order to prevent total collapse.

4.Also, we have no choice in this country but to raise taxes. Simple.

5.I want APC out too. But whoever takes over is going to meet the same set of problems. The problem of getting money.

6. So, let's face the cold reality. Sorry APC has not been good at diversification like they promised.


You don't understand bro...

They didn't give excuses in the last elections. In fact, they called it next level.

This is my anger, not for them but for those who voted them.

Baba the Sooner you live above sentiments the bitter for you and unborn kids. Am not a PDP or APC supporter but you really need to understand their is a limit to sycophancy.

Nigerian future is in loom already, Unemployment at it's peak and bigots like you will still play politics with everything just because you like or prefer a political party. Well, your highhandedness will tell on your generation unborn when Nigeria as been reduced to crust due to the mentality of educated illiterates like you.
You remind me of a secondary school colleague who the only reason he voted for Buhari was because he wears good kaftan good thing the lady is still unemployed and still begs friends for a thousand or two to pull her through the week. I hope your condition won't turn the above before you realise blind followership ain't followership but slavery.

Let's face it, Enyinnaya Abaribe is one of the few intelligent people in your Senate.

Senate has become retirement home for governors who are obviously bereft of ideas.

Another useful man in that house is Dino Melaye. Even though he does stupid things, Senator Melaye argues intelligently.

This topic is beyond the understanding of many Nairalanders

You forgot to mention that the 10T budget is already based on 2T deficit even with oil at current price. Go figure!

Some people cannot handle the truth.

I'm not surprised, it is covered by my point number 2. Unless oil gets to, or above $139 per barrel, we will be in deficit.

(On a related note...Saudi Arabia is opening its tourism industry wide...even to the point of allowing unmarried copules stay together! And Ecuador has cut subsides. Riots on the streets).

Thing is, if you are an oil producer, with the way oil prices are falling, deficits are going to be the order of the day. That's the harsh reality. And even if we elected a team of techoncrats in 2015 to take over from PDP....the same issues would be facing us.

Senator Abaribe appears to know his Onions well. Is he an Economist? Dude is way intelligent than his colleagues.

2.4 trillion for debt servicing

2 trillion for capital expenditure
OMG!

What we pay as loan servicing is bigger than all the capital projects for the year!

It is finished. When we were shouting about Buhari's borrowing left, right and centre to finance his re- election, zombies called it wailing

Also,

The projected growth that they put in the budget was 1.9 per cent, less than the population growth of 2.6 per cent


Una don see am
zombies who play politics and ethnicity with everything won't see it.

N2.4T to service debts. Additional N2T deficit loading. Nigeria's recurrent expenditure is unsustainable. We haven't factored in the percentage that will be looted.

Yet NASS members are living like everything is normal. News from FGN is always depressing.

What percentage of 2019 budget was implemented?

Nigeria is a basket case.
