worksmart:
N4000 per tree.

I guess it depends on the cost of the tree seedlings the process and labour costs it may not be too unreasonable though I suspect it could be done for a lot cheaper.

There far more blatant daylight robbery that these reps should be outraged about.

Like the fuel price hike and nothing to account for where all the extra revenue accrued is going.

The question you should ask is did they plant 21 million trees?

21 million trees anywhere is a lot and would have been globally recognized.

A large percentage of the money was diverted and looted.

81billion to plant trees 9ja I hail o

Rep will get their share

In Gary Coleman's voice: ehen ..."WhatArUgoinToDoboutIt"!

Y’all think they plant the trees?
They ain’t did shit

I don't think there are any or so much corruption here, unless if they do not plant up to 21m trees.
By calculation, cost per tree is N3,857.14 (N81bn/21m), which is about the cost price from the Horticulturist. Labour for planting will be charged as well.
We priced between N5k - N7k for projects as far back as 2021 in my office.
They should investigate the quantity of trees planted rather than the cost, because the unit price is reasonable.

Well that is the starting point. The Reps have to go an estimate the trees actually planted is equal to what the agency claims they planted.

Irony is Federal lawmaker are stealing much more money from their criminally over bloated salaries they awarded themselves each of them taking home appron N1bn per annum ,which totals almost N500bn per annum and they don't even produce anything tangible for all that money.

They should stat by fuming about the cost of the NAss to the nation.

Glintx:
81 billion to plant trees?

Are these people just plainly daft and stupid ?

first time i dey hear of this agency

ppogba:
NAGWW.

Omor, see agency.

The other time, the DG of the agency in charge of LEATHER was shouting about Nigerians denying the country of forex because they consume ponmo. The idiot spoke so that Buhari will know that he is existing.

Bluntguy:
They will only fume and that ends it. At times I wonder what the usefulness of our national assembly is

Assembly that approved the maradi railway by evil buhari administration, the current one is even worste

Lanretoye:

wittywriter:
Fuming? Because they didn't share?
Vagabonds In Power.


Wittyness

In the words of TemplarLandry

I dedicate this song "V.I.P"(Vagabonds In Power) by Fela kuti

Great jam

https://dailytrust.com/reps-fume-as-agency-spent-n81bn-to-plant-21m-trees-in-north/

waiting to hear the billions nigeria wasted on nin registration that is useless because another national registration is coming soon

About N3800 per tree, not really much if you ask me.

Sermwell:


So you even believed 21 million trees were planted??

Una Sabi fall for anything sha

So you believe they didn't plant the trees?

Why are the Northerners so spent free ..they don't know how to manage anything, see how Buhari borrowed money and wasted it on unfinished projects here and there.. their people never question or query their reckless attitude. Too bad

Alchemy528:
Money that can be shared to thousands of people to save lifes

I agreed with your submissions.
Most Northerners are yet to understand that Govt is to improve lives and development, Instead are always sharing it for Personal Interests and looking for excuses to build Nigeria!

And you wanna blame BAT for palliative wahala......
These so called states that provide over 60% of the total poverty rate in this country....?!
So them fit farm but no fit plant tree...?!
What are the institutions doing if not have such projects...?!

EFCC......una no dey see this one.....?!
....not thing, the floods came to wash almost all the trees and they have to plant new ones....this time for #100billion......
These Northerners need to be thought how things are
My problem is the shear number of their people in the south doing......what....?!

Soon, very very soon, there will be nothing to steal again

IgboSomalia:
Can a program like this be done in the East?

It may help stop or reduce erosion in areas plagued by that problem.

east dont need tree planting, they have enough trees and bush

Nigeria, and particularly the northern region will be shouting of desertification, and someone in the region was put inspire to mitigate the effects of desertification, see the type of result that is coming out, and some people will claimed we are practicing democracy. Even the people that are accusing the man are never serious about corruption, they just make noise to get their own part of loots. We will not hear anything from them again.

Elibaba1:
When I tell people that we have secret(Unpopular) agencies that have running cost and allocation slightly more than or equal to some federal ministries they think I am joking. Lol
This is one!

First time of hearing about this agency with such humongous allocation headed by a Northerner as usual.

Bluntguy:

to fume na so if you don't want smoke you spend the money with evidence

Generalyemi:


Like for coup in Nigeria ,that will kill all politicians in Nigeria from 1999 irrespective of the tribe

After yet kill them, what then.?
How will you remove the military when they start looting?
All these small children that did not experience military rule

MadamExcellency:


Do you even understand bulk planting?

If I charge you N4000 per plantain for 1000 plants, will you pay me N4,000,000 for 2 acres of farmland?

Is the labour for plantain the same with the labour for long term trees?

May God deliver nigeria

👀👀Dammmmmmmmnnnn it!
The shyyythole is the stupidest joke on the surface of the earth 😂🤣😅😉😀
Little wonder the Khaki boys are on rampage.

Here is a faceless forum..l know I senior your mother

Do we need an agency just to plant trees?

The state governors could have used direct labour to plant the trees at a much reduced cost.

Too many agencies, too many directors, and too many drain holes in our national purse.
