This is the first time the Nigerian
budget has passed through series of upheavals beginning with the process
of planning the budget through to it disappearing into thin air and
resurfacing and now being rejected by the President for various
anomalies.
Nigerians continue to wonder when the
budget will be put to use considering the fact that the first quarter of
the year has expired and the Nigerian government is still on the
embattled budget.
President Buhari has demanded adjustment to some areas which he
considers are germane to his government, hence the continuous rejection.
