Open Letter To President Buhari On 2016 Budget

To President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, 

President of Nigeria. 

I write you today to display my utmost dissatisfaction to your proposed 2016 fiscal documents. I am an apostle of CHANGE but you are making me to regret my actions during the electioneering by the day.  

Indeed majority of we Nigerians voted for you on the ground of probity and accountability but it is as if the reverse is the case now. 

Should we say that these misfiring are happening because no one to stand like late Major General Tunde Idiagbon in your present government? 

Or that age is posing as a threat? 

The revelations surrounding the proposed budgets left us with no choice than the much awaited CHANGE might be a mirage cum ruse! 

How on earth should your minister of Health, Professor Isaac Adewole claim that 'rats' jerked up his budget? 

In the same vein, Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed  equally disowned his ministry’s budget. 

Part of the irritating revelations was the N10 billion that was claimed to be a typographical error?!!! 

The list is unending, several millions of naira earmarked for designing of a website, purchase of softwares and even your food cum health facilities in Aso Villa. 

All these are embarrassing and unacceptable. 

I don't want to believe that the budget of corruption as coined by the mentally alert Nigerians are written by you in proxy. 

Since even a  toddler can find fault in this your proposed budget, I'm of the opinion that you bury the shame and retrieve the documents from the National Assembly. 

The drama that the budget has brought is enough, you should prove your critics wrong by doing the needful. 

If budget, which is the fundamental of any government can't be gotten right, I'm afraid things will continue to fall apart. 

In summary, the following are what I want you to do as regards the budget:

• Retrieve the controversial budget 
• Do an holistic assessment of every input
• Delete the N5 billion that you want to be borrowing per day to finance the budget 
• Adjust it to meet economic realities
• Reduce the skyrocketed amounts that you plan to spend in Aso Villa 
• Delete extravagant proposals 
• Above all, design it in a way that will allow you to fulfill your electioneering promises 

It is not a crime to make a mistake, but it is a crime to unborn generation to make a mistake and still bent on not correcting same. 

Before I end my letter, please come out with laudable economic plan, we are not happy with the present state of naira in parallel market. 

Minister of Works, Housing and Power, Babatunde Fashola should be called to order, we Nigerians are suffering. 

If at all there will be increment in the tarrif, increment in power supply should precede it. 

The irony of the situation is that, most of you are getting all you want freely, we that are laying the golden eggs should not be treated with disdain. 

Also Dambazau should be checked, being a power drunk is unnecessary. 

Moreso, your information minister, Lai Mohammed should be made to know the difference between the party’s spokesman and minister of Information. 

Stop the blame game. Revive the incorrigible and indefatigable Buhari that we once know in you. 

The king that reigns and the town is peaceful, people will remember him and vice versa. 

Power is transient. 

Thank you 

Yours truly.
