Reports indicates that the earlier N7.5 billion given to Julius Berger construction company won’t be able to finish the new Vice Presidential villa in Abuja.Prior to this development, Julius Berger have requested for another whooping N9 Billion which will carter for the Banquet hall and security gadgets in the villa. The government has however claimed that it won’t release the new funds but will look carefully into the proposal and make recommendations.



Myth has it that, even if the government were to reduce from the asking N9 Billion, it won’t be more than N500 Million. and this should put the final price to around 16 Billion Naira. Perhaps, this can explain the transformation agenda of Mr. President but we must know that any sincere government can fix the entire Benin-Ore Lagos road with street lights and drainage system to meet international standards with that kind of funds. It is a shame that we still continue to adhere to the same failed promises of our leaders who are hell bent in wiping the entire treasury. For any nation like ours, striving for sustainable growth and development, we must replace promises with policies that can create jobs for millions of Nigeria youths, put food on the table of the Nigeria people and overall, secure the lives of everyone while maintaining a buoyant economy.

Assistant 'Goodluck' got to have a presidential palace too.

No wonder, fuel subsidy removal is coming our way

Revolution coming very soon.

A revolution is inevitable at this rate. Make the subsidy removal date reach first.

Wow, why did they not just get a hut in some village. What does the vice president or even the president need a house for?

@Post
Not surprising.

16 Billion?

Clearly another case of misplaced priorities!

Does anyone knows what's become of Senator Ude's proposed Welfare Bill, which was only going cost N77 billion over 5 years?

The Senate, on Thursday, significantly advanced legislation on a new bill seeking to establish a social security system for Nigerian unemployed and aged.

The bill is sponsored by Anyim Ude (PDP, Ebonyi State). The bill proposes to set up a social security system that will enable the government pay out N15 000 or at least N10 000 monthly to unemployed graduates and persons above 60 in Nigeria.

Mr Ude, 69, was inspired to draft the bill after listening to contributions of a Senate motion on the corruption of the National Poverty Eradication Program (NAPEP) in February last year.
