Buhari And The Virtually Empty Treasury (deceit Or Illiteracy) by Nobody: 5:18pm On Jul 07, 2015 |
After listening to the president complain about the status of the national treasury, I thought to myself "what was baba expecting" but for the recent revelation of the Excess crude account ECA at $2 billion and LNG payment at $2 billion got me wondering how low the people can go. In Buhari's exact words, "I met huge debts, virtually empty treasury ” From my dictionary, definition of the word virtually adverb 1. Almost but not quite. 2. Without exaggeration; literally In essence, but not in fact ECA + LNG payments = $4 billion I have read a lot from Nigerians including the leaders of the pdp saying the president lied us, I have read threads on Nairaland asking where the president is getting money for bail out from. I wonder who the real illiterate is, is it that we no longer understand simple English? should the President communicate with us in pidgin from now on? $4 billion in savings for a country with a population of 170 million people is what? if not virtually empty treasury. Little history It is on record that former president Obasanjo left the country with $22 billion its excess crude account 2007, how did the Yar’Adua/Goodluck and Jonathan/sambo administration squander this savings despite record oil prices from 2010 - 2013? our budget benchmark was $80 PB (highest) while crude oil sold for $132 (highest). Where was the excess going to? forgive the disjointed nature of this write up. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Have you not observed that whenever there is transition from opposition party to another, the treasury is always 'virtually empty'? #onlyInNigeria. 23 Likes 3 Shares |

Why are you not blaming the governors that insisted the money be shared? That doesn't fit into your narrative abi?

I met virtually an empty treasury. I met $2b in ECA. Which one would you prefer?? I have atleast 1million in my bank account. I have 1million in my bank account. Which one would you prefer? A public officer should be clear and blunt when dealing with the masses. Newly sworn in governors stated exactly the amount of debt left behind by their predecessors none of them said they met huge debt. Why should Mr Mouth Action twist the ECA just to score cheap political point from his fellow cows. Call a spade a spade and not a farm tool. #I_Hate_Mouth_Action. 19 Likes 1 Share |

Slynonny: What most of you guys have failed to realise is that the ECA does not even belong solely to the federal government and it does not represent federal governments treasury. The ECA is a savings/reserve account that belongs jointly to federal, state and local government. The federal government cannot legally spend a single kobo from that account except it is shared among the various levels of government. The consolidated revenue fund is the federal governments treasury from which it makes all necessary payment and that account was virtually empty as at the time PMB took over. Can an outgoing state governor who left an empty account for his successor claim the anticipated share of the state from the ECA as funds left behind for the new governor? GEJ left an empty treasury and you guys should stop defending him please. 1 Like 1 Share |

Most persons here on Nland are plain dumb... especially the wailing wailers.. Some persons still insist Buhari said he'll make $1 = #1 and till date they don't have a valid premise to back up their words... Persons like Mogidi (especially this moniker) go about spreading false information in view to decieve the gullible who just swallow words without verifying the source of the fabricated lie the Tanoids arw always spewing.. I'd say let the wailing wailers continue to rant... 2 Likes |

The problem with MOST of us is that our reasoning has been tampered with sentiment. That we used to have more than $20B in our treasury and now we are left with less than $4B doesn't signify "virtually empty" to anyone? Will ur car wait till it stops before it start giving u the empty signal on ur fuel gauge? Am seriously confused here. Now that the FG want to share 400B naira and people saying "didn't the president say we are broke", does that mean Nigeria was on a full stop without generating any money since the handing over? Do u know how much Nigeria generate per day? I really don't know why we like asking senseless questions. Some of us can only read but we are still behaving like illiterate. OP need to care less about these set of people. They are still suffering from the shock they got from the elections. 1 Like |
