After Signing, Buhari Accuses National Assembly Of Padding 2022 Budget by NwaNimo1(m): 5:41pm On Dec 31, 2021
President Muhammadu Buhari voiced discontent with the National Assembly’s modifications to the 2022 budget after signing it on Friday, claiming that they could stymie the smooth running of the federal government’s plan.

Mr Buhari expressed reservations about the assembly’s decision to designate new provisions totaling N36.59 billion for National Assembly projects in the Service Wide Vote, claiming that it violated the separation of powers and financial autonomy of both arm of government.

Increased projected independent revenue for the federal government by $400 billion, reduction in the provision for Sinking Fund to Retire Maturing Bonds by N22 billion, and reduction in the provision for Non-Regular Allowances of the Nigerian Police Force and the Nigerian Navy by N15 billion and N5 billion, respectively, all without explanation are also matters of concern for the president.

Mr Buhari was also concerned about the amendments to the original executive proposal, which included new entries, outright removals, reductions and/or increases in the amounts allocated to projects, as well as the elimination of provisions for 10,733 projects and the addition of 6,576 new projects to the budget.

Most of the projects introduced, he claims, are related to areas that are primarily the responsibility of state and local governments, and do not appear to have been adequately conceptualised, developed, or costed.

As soon as the lawmakers return from recess, President Buhari said he will approach the National Assembly with a request for an amendment to ensure that crucial current projects important to his administration do not suffer a delay as a result of reduced financing.

During the presentation of the 2022 Appropriation Bill, he stated that the fiscal year 2022 will be vital to his administration’s efforts to finish and implement critical agenda projects, as well as enhance Nigerians’ overall living standards.

Some of you are really sick to be honest. You just criticize meaninglessly. The budget was transmitted to the president just last week and the 2021 financial year ends today. So, what do you expect the president to do between last week and today? Send it back to NASS when members are already on recess?

The president has done the right thing by signing the budget in time so as to maintain the January to December financial year. Thereafter, an amendment will be forwarded to the National Assembly next year to correct some of the anomalies that were raised by the president. That the budget had been signed does not mean it can’t be amended.

If this was your company, you will sign a faulty document that will throw your company into debt and then go to court and try to stop the check you signed?

Well, some of you are crass illiterates when it comes to having a good knowledge of the budgetary process and how government works generally in a presidential democracy. So, no point blaming you for posting nonsense, you really can’t comment beyond your level of understanding.

Yes, even the president doesn't understand a word from all he signed, someone who never believed in democracy and overthrew a sitting president. And now you expect him to understand what a budget means, you are asking for too much.

But that was the exact thing pdp said he should have done with the electoral bill.

That he should have signed it, with an executive request, it is still an APC affair.
