2017 Budget: Why are computers budgeted for every year? – Sen. Abaribe

Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe representing Abia-South Senatorial District in his contribution to the 2017 Budget debate says the more things change the more they remain the same.


He described the budget as an outrageous.

"We are nation that jokes a lot, we are going in the wrong direction. N1.3b is too outrageous for catering equipment".

He said: “5 BMW cars, 5 Toyota Land Cruisers etc are outrageous.

"Every year computers are being budgeted for in budgets.”

  1. Senator Abaribe, Good morning. You are just waking up from sleep. Where have you been? So, you really are not in the senate to have seen that computers are budgeted every year. This is a country where an incoming governor will not use the furniture used by the outgoing nor use the same vehicles used by the outgoing. The outgoing will either take the ones he used or sell them. Legislators will never vacate their quarters after the expiration of their mandates. Every now and then public funds are used for frivolities. This is the real definition of Nigerian economy. If we are just seeing this in a regime that has just scratched the surface of corruption in the country, can one imagine in those years of Paddy-Paddy government. Your guess may not be that of mine.

  4. Well said Kelechi Clement, we have this serious problem in this country. Talk, talk, talk with no actions, it's not only computers, but everything is always replaced with new ones yearly whether depreciated or not.

  5. Well said kelechi.

    That is why the senators have to do their job in term of control. Also, those in monitoring should do the same.

  6. Talk! Talk!! Talk!!! no action. This same senator will be silenced when he's made the chairman of a particular committee. As soon as he's eating from one angle, dead silence. He will be careless about whatever happens.
