When Nigerians Cannot Eat, Buhari Budgets N40m To Feed Aso Rock Animals by OLADD: 1:35pm On Feb 18, 2017 |
Bayelsa East Senatorial District Senator, Ben Murray Bruce has lambasted the Buhari led federal government for giving priority to animals while Nigerians are suffering. The Senator lamented that when Nigerians are finding it difficult to eat, the government during this period decided to budget a whopping sum of N40m to feed animals in the presidential villa. On his Twitter handle β@benmurraybruce, Murray-Bruce tweeted: βIt breaks my heart that at a time when many Nigerians canβt eat, we are budgeting β¦40 million to feed wildlife in Aso Rock Presidential Villa!" Recall that the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) recently released reports on the percentage of increment in prices of kerosene, petrol and transportation as against the previous year. These commodities are believed to be essential to every Nigerian as it directly impact their living standards. The reports which touched every state of the federation showed massive increments in terms of money being paid by Nigerians for these essential commodities. However, despite the gloomy report, and the drastic reduction in the purchasing power of Nigerians, the government budgeted a whooping sum for feeding animals. https://www.naij.com/1089015-when-nigerians-eat-buhari-budgets-n40m-feed-aso-rock-animals-ben-bruce.html?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C1170125431 |

Ben Murray Bruce should do his job instead of screaming, he is in the Senate. The budget is not final and it must be passed by the Senate. 1 Like |

sosy25: Why do you guys like talking before thinking? Just take time to go through your statement again and tell us if vetting budget proposal is not within the jurisdiction of Ben Bruce. More importantly, are you claiming Buhari was not aware such bogus proposal was included in the budget? 5 Likes 1 Share |

That is exactly what I meant. It is the job of the Senate to either reduce, increase or eliminate completely any item in the budget. So Senator Bruce should do his job instead of going on the internet to scream. OLADD: 1 Like |

Useless wailings. Was it Buhari that built the zoo at aso rock? Did Jonathan not budget for the feeding of animals including his numerous Alsatians while at aso rock. What exactly are wailers wailing about now? To stop feeding the animals and allow them starve to death or close down the zoo. If chief wailers Ben Bruce has issues with the zoo and wants it closed down, he has the power to do something about it instead of wailing on twitter. 1 Like |

coputa: Whether he reads every line in the budget or relies on others to do it is not the issue. The question is : are you aware that there is a zoo, which is a part of Aso Rock, for which a budget provision must be made? Even if the animals are in a public zoo they must be fed otherwise they starve. So it is either the Senate tells Buhari to close the zoo (that is a national asset) or approve what they consider sufficient to run the zoo. Mr Ben Bruce has failed to state what it costs to run a zoo the size of the one in Aso Rock for a year. We need to know that, in order to determine whether N40m is excessive or not. That is part of his job in the senate. Not this unnecessary sensationalism! |
Re: When Nigerians Cannot Eat, Buhari Budgets N40m To Feed Aso Rock Animals by OLADD: 9:09am On Feb 19, 2017 |
coputa: And the same president boasted that he would not allow the anomalies(padding) that trailed the 2016 appropriation bill to be repeated in the 2017 budget proposal. This goes to show that Buhari is not in charge of this govt and he would never be. |
Re: When Nigerians Cannot Eat, Buhari Budgets N40m To Feed Aso Rock Animals by OLADD: 9:20am On Feb 19, 2017 |
DelGardo: Try to look at issues intellectually before making comments. The president does not need any lecture from the National Assembly before taking drastic decision on plucking leakages and cutting cost. Of what relevance is a zoo to the country in this recession period? Do you know that N40m can feed an entire clan for 5 years? |
Re: When Nigerians Cannot Eat, Buhari Budgets N40m To Feed Aso Rock Animals by OLADD: 9:23am On Feb 19, 2017 |
wirinet: Did Jonathan prevent Buhari from closing down the zoo for the sake of cutting cost? |
Re: When Nigerians Cannot Eat, Buhari Budgets N40m To Feed Aso Rock Animals by coputa(m): 9:26am On Feb 19, 2017 |
DelGardo:In this time of economic recession,is it not wise for a right thinking government to close the zoo and dispose of it's animals,of what economic importance is that zoo sited in Aso rock villa,if not for looting purposes.Our government and leaders can never set their priority right,always misplacing their priority. 2 Likes |
