Samuel AkpanBello Maigari, a member of the house of representatives, has described the 2023 budget proposal as “organised corruption” by civil servants.
“This our budget, I will say, is a submission of organised corruption by the civil servants,” he said. The legislator asked his colleagues to scrutinise the appropriation bill when the heads of ministries, departments and agencies come to defend their proposals. “I will suggest and advise this parliament to be courageous and do its job. Suddenly, we are reducing the subsidy to six months — because it’s been an election issue. The government had no courage to undertake that enterprise. The subsidy is coming off from the second half of next year. It has been political. It is not driven by patriotism.“I think this house should be courageous to face the reality and ensure that we retool the budget so that it can be effective for Nigerians.
“We have had a situation where we had some challenges in terms of revenue to implement the budget. We are going to do that by way of focusing more searchlights on revenue generating agencies so that whatever revenue they generate, it will be brought to government coffers.”
