Lai Mohammed with such a robust budget? No wonder the deliverance of the zombies is proving a little challenging.

I keep telling people,buhari is no longer in control. Those that sponsored him against other more sensible and intelligent candidates within apc know the reason why.and the reason isn't far fetched,it is because they know he knows absolutely nothing . I warned Nigerians last year that the corruption which will perpetrated by this govt will be more than those of obj,yar adua and gej govt added together . And just after 7 months it is all happening .
Nigerians enjoy ur change

News for wailers to feed on
Dis is no longer about the wailers please let's stand us against any impunity whatsoever

Haas nkan beeeeee. This is a chain government

All these overbloated budget is just a way to pay back Tinubu's campaign funds.

With this government of today, Nigeria is in a big mess. Smh

Hahaha, I laugh colonially. I smell modern day Colonization coming back to Nigeria if care is not taken.

Flets:
Anyone still in doubt about what Buhari's govt stands for is not just a zombie but imbecilic zombie.

Never have we had this level of fraud, deception, propaganda, evil and nepotism in Nigeria.

The worst in the history of Nigeria.

APC simply represent or simply mean *Nigeria Doom*

Game over Nigeria has lost it again for the 3rd time in this nation history.

Ok just passing by ...

So many lies in one page,why? Opposition should be truthful and credible please. Blatant lies are not sustainable.
The appropriation bill is something that is easily accessible on the [url=http://www.budgetoffice.gov.ng/pdfs/2016pro/Consolidated%20Appropriation_Bill__Details_2016.pdf]Ministry of Budget and planning's website[/url]. Anybody can download it and look through, it is a 1810 page document with less than 5mb size. The budget is not gold or Bible, neither is it an unchangeable or unchallengeable document or law. In fact, it is being debated at the National Assembly presently. i have also previously expressed some of my reservations, observations and questions about it on this thread. The President in the last media chat has urged our journalists to engage more in INVESTIGATIVE journalism. It is therefore unfortunate that a national daily(NGR Guardian) will publish such baseless strings of lies for whatever purpose.

IN an administration fighting against corruption, that is in need of diversification, President Muhammadu Buhari has presented a budget that would appropriate N29.7 billion to his Ministry of Agriculture in comparison to N115 billion to a “do nothing” National Assembly. Even when you add the planned appropriation for the Universal Basic Education (N77.1 billion) together with the Ministry of Agriculture (N29.1billion), the National Assembly still gulps about N15 billion more than them. What a priority!

Again to be clear, i have my reservations for some of these figures, so i am not defending them per say, i am simply presenting them.
Federal Ministry of Agriculture's total allocation is 76,753,672,273(76.7billion not 29.7/29.1 choose anyone billion as ngrguardian reports). In the BREAKDOWN, it is shown that the Ministry of Agriculture has a recurrent(non-debt) expenditure of 29.7billion and a capital expenditure of 47billion, totalling 76.7billion.

Nigeria is in need of security no doubt. But this ought not to be an excuse for duplication. President Buhari budgeted N294.5 billion for the Ministry of Defence. The Ministry of Interior also has a lot to do with the security of the country and has a budget of N145.2 billion. We also have the Nigeria Police Formation and Command budget at N283.09 billion. Then there is tucked somewhere in the budget something called Operation Lafiya Dole to cost Nigerian Tax Payers N10 billion. “Lafiya Dole” is an Hausa Language expression that means “Compulsory Peace” or “Peace by Force.” If you add up the four, it gives you N732.79 billion.

With over N732.79 billion to these all important Ministries and Departments that deal with our security, can President Buhari explain to Nigerians what his National Security Adviser would be doing with additional N57.7 billion? This National Security Adviser allocation is an amount that is higher than the funds allocated to the Ministries of Transportation, Water Resources, Works, Power and Housing put together! Haba!

The Federal Ministry of Defence has a total allocation of 429,098,182,742. These information is right on page 1, missing it is mischievous. Ministry of Interior has a larger 498,453,097,241. The figures are so mixed up already i don't know where to start with you. Now, these are two different Ministries and it would be good to know the differences by finding out. If someone needs to be told that there is difference between Navy, Airforce, Army, Defence Academy, Police, Immigration, Custom, Prison, fire, NSCDC and your gateman, there is more problem than i can currently handle for you. Lafiya Dole is a special funds for combating Boko Haram insurgency in the North East region.
The Office of the NSA is not one man BTW. It has some MDAs under it like the DSS and national intelligence Agency. We cannot be blaming the 2016 budget for the multiplicity and duplicity of our Ministries and MDAs of course. The allocation for Ministries of Transportation is 215,797,393,980. This is more than NSA already so why the lie? Ministry of Water Resources is 44,206,418,733. Ministry of Works, Power and Housing is 467,645,043,369. All these information is right on page 1, why the lies? is that opposition?

President Buhari promised to create employment for Nigerian youths. But he budgeted only N7.8 billion for the Ministry of Labour and Employment. He also budgeted N9.5 billion for the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development, a sector that could easily generate high employment if properly funded and managed. Science and Technology Ministry received only N25.8 billion. Also remember that the Ministries of Transportation and Water Resources received N13.7 billion and N7.2 billion respectively.

Total allocation for Ministry of Labour and Employment is 13,397,589,915 not 7.8billion. Ministry of Solid Minerals Development is 18,625,703,622, Science and Technology Ministry is 53,743,337,717 not 25.8billion. Transportation again is 215.7billion and Water Resources is 44.2billion. All these are different from 300billion budgeted specially as Special Intervention fund to help tackle issues like employing 500,000 teachers and other plans. Please fear God if you do not fear man or yourself.

I don't know why people wont allow the president run this country his way. He wrote the budget and has appropriated monies to ministries d way he deemed relevant. Security is very key to this nation and we can't allow to loose the territories we gained from BH again. Besides, everything allocated to security is not even up to what was budgeted by d past regime. Let's pray that the budget works the miracle positively.

Dear Mr President..

this is not the change we asked for in this matter..

please do the needful..i am beginning to doubt if you actually looked at this budget.

its not too late to effect the needed change.

thank you.

seriously concerned Nigerian

You should stop crying,you haven't seen anything yet.This is just the beginning. It,s called CHANGE

January 2015, Promise of Change.
January 2016, Change of Promise.
#NigeriaWeHailThee

Hmmm Buhari budgeting N39.1 billion for propaganda.

Nigeria is finished that is all the sign I need to know this govt has no plans but to defend all their forthcoming failure

nice try "YEYE"! But you have top try harder (with accurate facts) to convince me!

Lai Mohammed's ministry got more money than transportation, water resources and industry put together because they're preparing for more propaganda and perhaps money to pay their zombies on social media. No wonder Tonyebarcanista joined them. I must wail this country to greatness.

Palantir:


Seriously. We need to stop spreading lies.

But em please point out the lies in the article so we can stop spreading them.

try this:

"With over N732.79 billion to these all important Ministries and Departments that deal with our security, can President Buhari explain to Nigerians what his National Security Adviser would be doing with additional N57.7 billion? This National Security Adviser allocation is an amount that is higher than the funds allocated to the Ministries of Transportation, Water Resources, Works, Power and Housing put together! Haba!"

did OP even look at the above?

President Buhari needs to explain to Nigerians what Mr. Lai Mohammed would be doing with N39.1billion allocated to his Information Ministry.


How could President Buhari justify the proposed spending of N400 million on a weekend symposium

Is it not fraud for Buhari to deceive Nigeria by publicly drinking N10 Milo sachet (tea) during the Presidential election campaign? Even if Buhari is feeding Sharks, Whales and Buffaloes in Aso Rock, N1.75billion is too much for one man, when millions of Nigerians are finding it difficult to feed even once a day.

This is where i get angry Where are the Pressure groups, NLC and so on. They are no where to be found.. Well we are in a big mess. APC is in charge (Total Control) of the media so issues like this will never see the light of the day. People that should talk or pressurize the government have either been arrested or bought over. We are in a mess
Lets take a look at this LASSA FEVER outbreak do you how many people have died? But no protest no noise, no statement from the ministry of health, no statement from Buhari himself.
If it were to be Jonathan or an anti APC all hell will let loose. IT IS WELL.

You catch a liar by pointing out the truth. Now, what is the truth?

A man went into a restaurant and a group of people followed him begging for help say we have not eating for days now, and the man practically ignored, he move straight into the restaurant and immediately he ordered for chicken, two plate of rice, pepper soup, stock fish, cart fish and two bottles of orijin, after eating to his satisfaction he ask for his bill and they said N4950 he brought out N5000 and his balance is N50 at once he look toward the hungry and staved looking people follow him begging him for help, ask the attendant please you can give them the CHANGE. CHANGE NA CHANGE

The rate we now insult our Presidents these days is alarming. It was never like this until Jonathan took that office then the floodgates of insults were flung open due to his ineptitude. Now the trend is following Buhari.

I blame jonathan... Jonathan sef!

Government of change indeed! This is broad day robbery by few macroscopic elements and someone zombies will still not see the hand writing in the wall. The word change must be defined?

That's it the mallam daura,is still in a state of comatose on how to achieve the dire needed development in a twenty First century Nigeria.I have never been in doubt that,an average Notherner dosent bother himself,whether they are doing well or not,since the believe that everything that happens is the will of God.
And secondly,from history anytime a nothern president uses South western technocrats,the country develops in an opposite direction,and so no development is achieved,of which this administration is just showing what history already knows,and documented for the past 40years.

onatisi:
With buhari in power ,it is all over for Nigeria . In the next 3 years this nation may be on eBay for auction.

Dis boy get mouth sha lol!
