Investigations by our correspondent revealed that the Senate panel initially increased it by N500bn before it removed N50bn, shortly before it submitted its report.
President Muhammadu Buhari had in October, presented a budget proposal of N10.33trn to the National Assembly for consideration and approval. The Chairman of the Senate Appropriation panel, Senator Barau Jibrin, laid the report at plenary on Wednesday The President of the Senate said the panel recommendations would be considered at plenary on Thursday.
With all the budgets they are churning out year in, year out.. Nothing to show for it... I wonder where all the money dey go o..hmmm. Nigerian government abeg make una get sense o... U people are not doing anything o if the low class citizens aren't benefitting o...
You people are putting Nigeria in debt, after all the billions you people mention for the budgets, nothing will be identified, or account for ,Nigeria get independent before S A ,time to time ,day by day infrastructural is perfect, imagine Nigeria, all is story
Under Senator Saraki and Rtd Hon Dogara APC called this budget padding, while under the present rubber stamped NASS leaders they call it budget increase! May God help Nigeria.
😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵thisisNigeria
So what's the eseence of increasing the budget when it's heavily dependent on borrowings? The NGRSenate just did a witchy washy ritual just to score cheap political point. The major problem of budgeting in Nig is that of implementation! What's the impact of 2919 budget?
They have to find ways of ensuring the money they want to borrow is shared well
Bastards
Senate people sha 😂😂😂 Well done o
... and we are not hearing PADDED from the Buharididirins all over the social media spaces. We are finished in Nigeria. Only regionalism at the least could save it! Doomsday impending.
This is not what I saw on NTA and channels ooo, I saw 245b and here is another figure, which one is true
I thought only Saraki increases the budget without approval? Cc siretosin bodmas95
Hmmmm, nawa ooh
I hope the govt will not call for Saraki head this time.
We needed to read between the lines, the incompetent have it. Borrowing to build infrastructure, ok! Still expanding cost of governance 👎 Retire all the directors and employ 10 fresh graduates with their salaries and allowances. Their ineptitude got us here.
This legalized padding is not called padding because na them them. During the 8th Senate, it was padding. God dey sha.
Pple that support buhari swore that Saraki was a clog in the wheel of buhari. Lawan bought cars and now has padded the budget. It's clear that it's not a sin when it's done by their own man but it's sacrilege when it is done by someone else.
Have these people lost their mind
The senate and Rep just do MMM and it's frozen for 28days. 28days from now is 2020. Just dey cash out anyhow jàre. Your Mavrodi (Buhari) will ensure you get the money before the system (Nigeria) crash.
Official padding, legalising the illegality. Systemic fraud. Ahmed Lawan and his gang of rooters...
Make dem kuku finish the country sef, make all man rest once.
When the president of the senate is a foreigner, what was the expectation? When the country is ruined he will relocate to his country.
Nothing good can come out of this Senate. They should prove me wrong.
important things are 1)They've worked on how to generate more fund. 2)This is at committee level and it will be debated and pass by both houses.
PEN GET POWER GUN NO GET !... na Nigeria motor
WHY?! It shouldn’t be left to our imagination; acceptable and very cogent explanations/reasons should be given!!!
I just hope corpers allawee is included in that budget🙄
Whatever they do, our lives simply don't get better. Revolution, nay, national conference now!
When we said vote YeleSowore, vote MoghaluKingsley or feladurotoye you all kicked...Deal with it yo!!
To accommodate their treasury looting? Wow..Nigeria is finished. People were shouting Saraki. So where is the love? No more human beings!!
If they do not add or subtract, you will call them rubber stamp 🌸 🌸
y'all mofo just increased y'all loot!
Another budget padding?!
It must have been GEJ, he caused it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Another avenue to steal. Budget that won't be implemented 👌👌
Broad day light looters
Looters
Next level
Nigerians deserve this current senate
Weldon sir!
I am not surprise, no different btw 8th and 9th Senate! They still take same budget, allowance, padding of budget still remain & 9th Senate car allowance has also increase more than 8th Senate. May God save Nigeria..
So this is not padding abi Radarada 🙄🙄🙄🙄
This is budget padding, the senate, especially under Saraki, has been involved in this since 1999.
Not padded this time around but when it's come to bukolasaraki issue, it will be padded. 9ja let's wake from our slumber
Bunch of Thieves 😂
I don't know whether these guys are thinkers or just playing to the gallery. The estimates submitted by Buhari can't even be funded for revenue challenges and they have increased it by over $1bn. I hope this unrealistic and unnecessary increase won't render the budget uesless
yakubrasheed Blind man leading blind men
Saraki and Dogara have done it again. 😂
If it was during Saraki's era, they would call it padding.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏
U people should just give me one million pls
Hmmmmmm
Calling it padding Will be tantamount to HateSpeech
Let Nigeria just keep feeding them only,see as be like toad .....one day the whole thing go scatter.....
Billions Upandan Naija which way
Chineke me yeh. Ah God have mercy.
Dis people will kill us!!!
Kuku kill us o.😭😭😭
Rubber stamp well done....
🤣🤣🤣🤣Buhari and his 43 Looters.
LMAO. One really needs to question the lucidity of these people. With all the questions surrounding how the FG could possibly fund its original budget these jokers have added over $1bn to it. Yet no one is addressing the big fat elephant in the room. How?!!
I really wish thunder go fire this lawan inside that chair wey him sit down. Empty brains. Expecting to borrow from China. They would soon empty Chinese banks. Lol.
Its has happened again when this was done during the 8th assembly they senate president saraki all name
😂😂😂😂😇😇 incredibly. So is not padding this time 😰😰😰
God of mercy. These people are for themselves
Increase budget..... increase loan..... increased visits to London ......increase sufferings..... That's all you guys know
Thieves
Padding again and again
Is it bukolasaraki that is responsible for this as well? Why aren't Nigerians occupying nassnigeria
Ha!😲 Is it possible for SERAPNigeria to take this up for the good of the nation?
I hope it's not Budget Padding again.
They'll be increasing budget all for their selfish interest
We are tired of all these figures
i__amar I weep for Nigeria and Nigerians. 😭💔 I follow back asap though.
This saraki will not leave these people alone abi?
Wait a minute!, I though budget padding ended with Saraki and his team
The senate under the leadership of DrAhmadLawan is anti-people senate. DrAhmadLawan is only loyal and responsible to the President, not the people that voted him. That's why he had the guts to say any bill from PMB will get expeditious attention.
Padding?
This people should just cut my own share of the budget and give me..am not doing again..i dont want anything under dt budget..just cut my share and give me kowai...i cant tk dis no more
And Nigerians are not even up to 1 billion, why not just give us 5million naira each. Let everyone enjoy small ?
Just like that....$1b plus added to budget. To be paid from....
If u wish increase it by 1000bn Una Sabi... If u do well ur generation will enjoy it but if u don't they will suffer for it...
Ok now... Nigeria is working... To God be thy glory.
In a nation where the insane is leading the sane everything moved upside down
nwaegbe_nkem Why the increase? Did they forget to include something? If so, how come?
White elephant constituency projects

The MBuhari forgot them when coking the soup. They are just helping themselves to add more ingredients so it will reach them.
This Nigeria suppose don end, they are just looting Nigerians future 🔮 this is sucks and painful
Nigeria is going bankrupt
If it were during the tenure of bukolasaraki now, some mischievous people will be shouting Padded budget upandan
Money for the boys 😄
They will ruin this country las las
Stooges without a sense of purpose.!
Lol
Continue
It is Saraki's fault joor. He must've caused it. 😁
Thank you...una try
When it displeased Buhari, it was called fraudulently paying 4 fuel subsidy! With d hypocritic idiot paying same n even more, it's called under recovery! When saraki ( Buhari's most hated) did it, it was called budget padding. Now it's done by anointed son, it's budget increase!
My Country Nigeria. God bless you. You shall turn your back on our leaders soon
Cashout
Lawan is the Senate prwsodentnow, they won't call it budget padding.
NextLevel
If Saraki were the senate president, the title would have been the senate has padded the budget with N450b.
