Supplementary budget not addressing pressing national needs, emergencies -Obi


The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the February 25 presidential election, PETER OBI, has faulted the 2023 supplementary budget, saying it’s proof that the Federal Government is uncaring and insensitive to the needs of the masses.

 

The former Anambra State governor made his submissions in a series of tweets posted via his profile on Twitter.

 

OBI lamented that the budget didn’t capture the pressing national needs and emergencies in the country.

 

He said for the supplementary budget which ought to take into consideration national needs, to come in at this “late” period of the year, it was expected to include “urgent items of national welfare.”

 

While referring to the Presidency’s controversial purchase of a yacht, the Senate’s Sport Utility Vehicles and the furnishing of offices, OBI noted that such an act portrays a government that is totally uncaring and insensitive to the suffering of the majority, and indifferent to the mood of the nation.
