Kayode Fayemi
Concerned Nigerians have taken to the social media to lament on the alleged ill-prepared 2016 national budget of the All Progressives Congress-led administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Attention seems to have been shifted from the missing budget from the coffers of the senate as well as the duplication of the said budget with conflicting details.
It has moved to the recent discovery that the Ministry of Solid Minerals under the leadership of the former governor of Ekiti state, Kayode Fayemi will be spending a whooping sum of N795, 234.275 million on the upgrade of the ministry's official website.
Social media influencer and journalist, Kayode Ogundamisi who is based in the United Kingdom took to Twitter to publicize the anomalies in the national budget and slammed the Federal Government for allocating such an amount to a trivial operation that may not cost up to N2 million in the hands of innovative Nigerian youths who are Information Technology experts.
The issue of over allocation and wastage of government is not new to the political actors of this current administration.
Former Governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Raji Fashola who is currently the Minister of Power, Works and Housing during his tenure in the commercial capital of Nigeria, built a personal website for N78m and also two boreholes for a sum of N139 million which all went unquestioned.
Former Gov. Fayemi during his tenure in Ekiti also allegedly built a government house for N3.3 billion which is today not a tourist centre. Strong reports also had it that he purchased two beds in the edifice for N50 million.
