So Fashola and Amaechi go enjoy 2017 budget as buhari allocates bigger share to them. But why not education receiving highest share?

Person who doesn’t go to school will never value school. I haven’t said buhari didn’t go to school o.
Mine own is that they should make 2017 budget work out especially on the area of electricity and employment.

When will the so called National Assembly pass the 2017 appropriation bill when the submission is today? Gone are those days when military head of states read out budget on 1st January of each year and no deliberation from any useless legislative arms. Military needs take over Nigeria again.

Wow… so Buhari still kept to his words, returned to Nigeria to submit the 2017 budget. I’m impressed on the level of importance he held the NASS
