With all the increase in all the sectors and they're still complaining that they don't generate enough funds! Honestly speaking this Buhari government is a joke and junk.

Awoh! Lawan na u talk this one? Okay.... Election dey around the corner and Buha go soon comot. No wonda u dey talk like dis.

Hmmm

You people are eating most of what is available

Enikure

The only fund they are generating is collecting 45,000 & 55,000 from travellers coming into nigeria, just for nothing. Criminal country trying to teach citizens morality.

Did l hear you well? Stop that break dance and continue the borrow and share. Are you not the one giving approval to all loans?

Big shame on you for saying this. You are just waking up.

So disheartening!

Then he should resign now

Why is he complaining? It seems our legislative arm don't know what they are doing in the upper Chambers. After approving the loans for the executive arm, you are complaining. This country na cruise.

Continue with your delusion... shame

After lamenting, he will still approve his loan request again

IGR is taxation. Government profligacy obliterates the virtues of ordinary citizens paying taxes as a duty. It's a catch22. The lifestyle of public officials also does not help in the argument for ordinary citizens to line up without a gun to their heads to pay tax.

You are indirectly tryna tell us that APC ain’t looting enough. 2023 is loading…

Are u serious?

Adamu
