2016 Nigeria National Budget is a product of deep thinking - Hon. Chede

By


Hon. Garba Chede representing Bali/Gassol Federal Constituency of Taraba state has hailed Nigeria’s 2016 budget of N6.08trn which was presented to a joint session of National Assembly on Tuesday by President Muhammadu Buhari as a product of deep thinking based on the present realities of the country.

Speaking with DAILY POST, the Reps member noted that unlike the previous administration, Buhari consulted widely, thought over enormities and the uncertainties that may affect the financing of the budget before coming up with the figure.

“This is the first time APC administration was presenting a budget and this budget, undoubtedly, is a creation of deep thinking based on realities, which was obvious to all Nigerians,” he stressed.

He further identified those realities to include lack of job and youth empowerment which, he said, President Buhari has given prominence in the budget, stressing that this was why some Ministries may be given optimal attention than others.

“By looking at the budget, you will discover that some Ministries have been attention than others, the simple reason was that of focus of government like job creation and youth empowerment, so it is excellent,” he stated.

Against the backdrop of the opinion of some analysts that the budget was being presented late, Chede argued that aside this being the first time he would be making such presentation, the President needed to understudy the systems he met to enable him have insight into the next line of action. He explained that it was within the ambit of laws that the budget was brought towards the end of the year.“It was not lately presented as some analysts would say, because it was not only that President Buhari was doing so for the first time, but he has to study the systems which I believe forms his line of reasoning,” Chede posited.

I met Sophia when I was barely 21 years old. She was many years older than me and was able to manipulate and exploit my youth, naivety and generosity.Sophia is the mother of my daughter, and no more !
