Buhari Presents 2016 Budget Today by jcflex(m): 2:20am On Dec 22, 2015 |
AS President Muhammadu Buhari presents the 2016 Appropriation Bill to the joint session of the National Assembly comprising the Senate and the House of Representatives today, there were strong indications, yesterday, that the lawmakers are ready to ensure speedy passage of the bill. Vanguard learned that senators and members of the House of Representatives are prepared to give the bill accelerated consideration and passage into law. As part of moves to fast track the passage of the bill when the Senators resume from New year break in the second week of January, a source told Vanguard that once the President presents the budget today, the Senate and the House of Representatives will go to their various chambers to commence work. According to the source, part of the arrangement is to present the bill for first reading today and tomorrow, when the lawmakers will formally adjourn sitting till next year, the bill would be presented for second reading and passed and thereafter referred to the appropriate committees on Finance, Budget, National Planning and Appropriation among others. The move, the source told Vanguard, would make the job easy as the budget would then be at the committee level where ministers, heads of parastatals, departments and agencies of government would be invited to defend their budget. Last Wednesday, the Senate approved the Medium Term and Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and Fiscal Strategy Paper, FSP submitted by the Federal Government, just as it approved Crude Oil Benchmark price of US$38 per barrel for 2016 despite the global dwindling crude oil price to $36 per barrel as at Monday from the $40 per barrel. In the documents, the Senate also approved that the Federal Government should in 2016 establish a data base and possibly a single salary account for all its employees as that would help streamline and reduce its personnel cost. It also approved the exchange rate of N197 to $1 as proposed in the MTEF. www.vanguardngr.com/2015/12/nass-shuts-down-as-buhari-presents-2016-budget-today/ |

THIS IS THE REASON NATIONS SAVE... for the rainy day. So when you support your thievish "heroes" as they plundered and stole, the result is bound to be hardship. What we are experiencing now is not a DISTINCT AND SEPARATE UNRELATED INCIDENT. When a nation has low foreign reserves, it's currency value will suffer against strong currencies like the US dollar. Wailers think this is an "excuse". I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU....UNTIL YOU GET FREAKING REAL, AND STOP THINKING LIKE 5 YEAR OLDS, you will remain the butt of every educated person's joke. Thank your lucky stars that your hero was sacked and steady hands took over. There would have been an implosion in this country by now. The entire facade of "fastest growing-rebased-economy would have come full circle. See what is happening to our main source of revenue. THEY SHOULD HAVE SAVED OUR MONEY, NOT STEAL AND WASTE IT. Mtcheew!! Oil price, December of year 2008: $46 2009: $82 2010: $97 2011: $105 2012: $94 2013: $100 2014: $54 Current: $36.3 61 Likes 8 Shares |

SmartMugu: It is poor Editorial from vanguard. I think the "bills" in the body of the article was referring to the "budget" that will be presented by the President today. There is already a bi-partisan support to fast-track the process and give the bill a speedy passage in both Chambers. 3 Likes |

It also approved the exchange rate of[b] N197 to $1[/b] as proposed in the MTEF. I swear, if it was at that rate things would have been better. Must we be suffering in this country, are we the only nation our major source of income is petroleum. Other countries there citizen doesn't suffer the way we do even when crude is $40 a barrel. Na thunder with five stars will settle all those that have wasted our resources and turned us into this mess. |
