The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, says the attitude of President Bola Tinubu's administration does not indicate that it is aware that the country is in a huge crisis. Obi also accused the government of leaving out the most pressing national needs and emergencies in the Supplementary Budget it recently signed.
He lamented that instead, the government included 'a mysterious Presidential Yacht, Presidential Jets, the furnishing of already lavishly furnished presidential quarters and offices, fleets of luxury SUVs' in the budget. The former Anambra State governor disclosed this in a statement posted on X on Wednesday.
This number is largely from among citizens in Sokoto, Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, and Zamfara States. A caring Government in order to plan for the mitigation of such pending catastrophe can request for supplementary budget provisions to cushion those under threat. 'No item of urgent social welfare has yet featured in the supplementary budget being orchestrated by this government.
