Sokoto State Government Seeks Loan To Buy Cars, Pay For Muslim Pilgrimage, Others | Sahara Reporters

The Sokoto State Government has announced its intentions to seek a N65.7bn loan to finance different projects in the state including purchasing cars and paying for Hajj – Muslim pilgrimage.

The loan, which would be serviced in 36 months and would not be a liability to be inherited by successive governments, would be used to also facilitate education and health projects, the government said. Also, N4bn would be accessed from the Central Bank of Nigeria agricultural loan facility as a counterpart funding.

nnaezema 😂😂😂😂

How is buying cars and paying for pilgrimage an affair of government that you even need to take loan for it? One hardly understand the difference between educated and uneducated most of tge times

I hope Trump fine a way of banning Nigerians forever.

That is why it will be difficult to eradicate terrorism in the North

OMG 🤦‍♂️

Naija, spending money on frivolities. Must they go on pilgrimage if there's no money?

Unacceptable and most unfortunate. You don't borrow to find consumption. Sad really.

It is a NO for loan for consumption!

May God help us in Nigeria, I really don't understand what is happening in our country and leaders😔😔😔😔

OfficialPDPNig what are you doing to rejig the party and her image? Journalist is held captive by your party governor and you pretended not to see it. Now Sokoto governor is to secure loan for consumption. OfficialPDPNig can't you advise them? Don't be like OfficialAPCNg

Govt officials acquire loans to pay for luxury while millions are in desperate living conditions

This is why with the northern backward and religious bigotry mentality NIGERIA CAN NEVER move forward.This is horrible to say the Least

Nothing wey Ashawo no go see for hotel room

Made in Nigeria product

Failed leader

😂.. Paying for pilgrimage and enriching d Saudi economy

Haba

Loan to buy car What will the car give in return?

Madness

This must be a joke AWTambuwal

Going for hajj should b a personal thing not government sponsored

Fake news?

Up🇳🇬 😅

PDP sympathizers are now speechless, they don't want to talk.

The North is not ready for the future at all 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Like seriously? Thought someone from that State wanted to govern Nigeria. Help us oh Lord

Insane!

Lord Luggard 🤦

They are collapsing the union with insane borrowing, they are selling the country in disguise, who is going to repay all this dept?

We'll be alright

When we told you to reject PDP, you think we were joking.

madness. mental instability is actually underrated.

Pls government sponsoring any kind of pilgrimage should be banned please. This are personal things. Educate your people and create conducive environment for business to thrive. Misplaced priorities

I find it hard to believe AWTambuwal

I'm beyond speechless 😮

I don't understand their motive behind sponsoring people to hajj if not to steal money. The hajj is not compulsory if you don't have the means.

Loan to buy cars.... ? Haba!!

There level of madness is very high, u can imagine, rubbish

Speechless
