September 5, 2024
The National Space Research Development Agency is a federal government agency under the Federal Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology, with a mandate to establish a "fundamental policy for the development of space science and technology."

President Bola Tinubu’s administration budgeted over N629 million under the National Space Research Development Agency (NASRDA) in the 2024 Fiscal Appropriation Act, for sensitization against rape and unwanted pregnancy, provision of metal dustbins and sanitation materials, training and empowerment of clergymen, traditional rulers and heads of communities and provision of hand pumps in Oyo and Kaduna states.

The National Space Research Development Agency is a federal government agency under the Federal Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology, with a mandate to establish a "fundamental policy for the development of space science and technology." The scope of NASRDA includes the study of basic space science to lay the foundation for deriving maximum benefits from the nation's participation in the space enterprise. Its scope also includes research and rigorous education, engineering development, design, and manufacture, particularly in the areas of instrumentation, rocketry, and small satellites as well as in satellite data acquisition, processing, analysis, and management of related software for Nigeria’s attainment of space capabilities. The agency is also to provide Remote Sensing to help Nigerians understand and manage our environment and natural resources using space-acquired information to enable Nigerians to better understand land, air, and water resources and associated problems. It also has the mandate for Satellite Meteorology to study atmospheric and weather sciences using satellite data to facilitate the effective management of the environment.

However, according to the breakdown and details of the budget allocation from the certified copy obtained from the Budget Office website by SaharaReporters, Tinubu's government under National Space Research Development Agency budgeted the sum of N80 million for the “Supply of Toyota Hilux Utility Sports for sensitization against rape and pre-mature/unwanted pregnancy in the local area of Ibadan North Federal Constituency, Oyo State 4.” The sum of N80 million was budgeted for the “Provision and supply of large metal dustbins, cleaning, and sanitation of selected communities in Oyo State 2.”

For the “training and empowerment of clergy, traditional rulers/heads of communities on conflict and peace resolution in Ibadan, Oyo State 4,” the sum of N170 million was budgeted. Under the same National Space Research Development Agency, the sum of N299,592,652 was allocated for the “provision of hand pumps in some selected communities in Jema’a/Sanga Federal Constituency in Kaduna State,” and another N30 million for the “provision of hand pumps and boreholes in Kano South, Kano State.” Also, N50 million was budgeted under National Space Research Development Agency for the “supply of motorcycles to Mbakpor Community”.

Other budgetary allocations which are outside the mandates of NASRDA but were budgeted under the agency are
▶ N20 million for the “provision of selected primary health and maternity centres across Kaduna South Senatorial District, Kaduna State”,
▶ N100 million for the “construction/renovation of blocks of classrooms in various schools in Egba, Ogun State,”
▶ and N200 million for the "construction and rehabilitation of asphalt roads in Ibadan, Oyo State."

If awards are given to the best mumu/foolish country in the world, Nigeria really deserve it most..
Just imagine how our politicians are twisting us anyhow they wish like Oliver twist..

Under the regime of a notorious narcotics drug trafficker, certificate forger, buccaneering power grabber engaging in criminal state capture, state graft, and brazen theft of our commonwealth have become the order of the day.

Who do we report this people to? They own the police, chief judge and the military

They need to add something for we igbo smokers in Nigeria...

We are too comfortable smoking the ganja instead of inserting things in higher places.

All this looting is for what exactly?? Something they will leave behind when they die!!
Man and his insatiable desire for ill wealth. They should continue looting our collective commonwealth. Na so God go loot their lives too.
Lagislooters and Executhieves are all working for themselves, wives and girlfriends.
Useless criminals.
😡😡

So they impregnate the budget or what...?

🥵

ICPC, Amnesty International, UN, ECOWAS... the main is that you report them though. Merely complaining and doing nothing after that won't cut it as its akin to declaring you don't mind at all.

BlocksNG:

For God's sake, why are this people so corrupt from top to bottom.
Useless people 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Recall Recall Recall. Labour should start recruiting serious parliamentarian now. If we need change that is where it should be starting from. Change president 10times nothing will change.

SMH

Maybe they’re going to space to knack and get person pikin pregnant na

It is surprising that a document as legal and sacrosanct as the National Budget, worked on by many hands, debated by the Legislature for months and eventually signed by the President after many of his aides, special Advisers and ministers have gone through would still contain all these insertions here and there.
I don't understand these things at all.

It wasn't a review for positive change. He actually justified everything in a stupidly padded budget.

Kobo, good morning.
