According to Punch Metro, the House of Representatives has raised the 2020 Appropriation Bill from N10.33 trillion to about N10.6 trillion.

The new figure has been proposed by the House Committee on Finance, which is scheduled to lay its report on the national budget at the plenary today (Wednesday).

The committee has recommended a total budget sum of N10,594,362,364,830.

President Muhammadu Buhari had on October 8, 2019, presented the appropriation bill to a joint session of the National Assembly.

Both the executive and the legislature plan to pass the bill before Christmas break to return Nigeria to a January-December budget cycle.

Details soon...

Ok seen

We'll miss Saraki, not because he wasn't corrupt, but because he was a superb check on Buhari. Now that Ahmad Lawan has shamelessly said he/senate would agree with whatever Buhari wants, we're in for a lot of rub-my-hands, I-rub-your-hands massive slew of back and forth corruption between the executive and the legislature.

God bless you bro

seems like I'll unfollow you

LOL. The last time I counted, nearly 40 of your monikers were following me, to cancel out my posts. It's not worth it, my brother. Send me a PM, there's something I need to discuss with you.

wait

I was having a conversation with a Senior Legislative Aide who's privy to happenings in the Niger Delta,

What the politicians have succeeded in creating is a monster that will swallow the entire region. A bunch of thugs and criminals who pose as militants

Militants seize gun boats from the Nigerian Navy with no consequence. Militants operate bunkered Oil for Arms deal with dubious merchants, militants get cash from IoCs monthly in exchange for peace to drill Oil. Militants use sophisticated military artillery

That the Nigerian Army & Navy do not have. The Security personnels especially with the JTF connive with the Militants to make any governance possible. Militants collect hundreds of millions monthly from the Govt and IoCs.The Niger Delta is a huge racket. Kidnapping and Armed Robbery is become a full fledged industry. Your degree and skill will not take you anywhere in that region unless you know how to use arms. TERRIBLE!

NIGERIA

Axten33:
Over 3B increase

It's not 3B but around 300 Billion increase.

Trillions on trillions


No good federal road

It's well

8th senate under Saraki is the best we had since democracy

Nigeria is gone to dogs with this rubber stamp looters

Budget made by gesture, plan by assumption, study by stunt stamp, will be implemented without defending............

.

We need restructuring in this country, Legislatures are to make laws but they have turned to budget padding .............what were added to increase our indebtedness should have been explicitly stated.
There should be a call for a new Nigeria........the old nigeria is tired and stinking.

Queen Elizabeth why did u give us independent, u left the country in the hands of fools.

None of this is in the real interest of the country if u check it properly.

I don't understand. What's the increment for, please?
