The Igbo-Biafra Nationalists, IBN, on Saturday called on the Federal government and the Anambra state government to reevaluate their spending priorities to avoid reckless expenditures.

Owerri – They said among other things that they noticed misplacement in priorities if not addressed could hamper development.

“Recent revelations have exposed the Tinubu-led administration’s alarming expenditure patterns, with a staggering N244,654,350 spent on bulletproof tyres in a single day. According to documents sourced from govspend, these payments were made on May 21, 2024, just days before the President’s one-year anniversary in office.

“In a similar vein, Anambra State has demonstrated a concerning lack of prioritization in its budgetary allocations. The 2024 budget, titled “Changing Gears: The Transformation Agenda Begins”, includes a N68.306 million allocation for maintaining the state’s Lagos and Abuja liaison offices. In stark contrast, only N46.2 million has been allocated for the maintenance of 264 secondary schools across the state, amounting to a meagre N175,000 per school.
