Seadogs knock NASS for approving 2023 'anti-people' budget

The National Association of Seadogs, Pyrates Confraternity has blasted the National Assembly for approving the 2023 national budget presented to it by the Federal Government, which it described at 'anti-people'.

“As a sign of seriousness, we expect the lawmakers to revisit its report released in May 2021 which indicted over 60 MDAs for failing to remit revenue meant for the government. The various officials behind this defiance should be fished out and sanctions meted out appropriately to curb impunity, while the monies should be recovered. Government should pursue diversification of the economy with renewed vigour.

Also lamenting the insecurity ravaging different parts of the country, the seadogs said Buhari had the sole responsibility to save the economy. “Nigeria’s economic turmoil cannot end without the Federal Government resolving the power supply issue in Nigeria. The absence of regular and adequate electricity has crippled productive activities and discouraged investment. This ugly drift should be redressed. It is incumbent on the Federal Government to speed up its investment and needed reforms in the power sector to improve power supply which is critical to industrialisation and opening up of the economy for more investments.
