As Nigeria is faced with another big embarrassment after the news of the 2016 National budget is missing from the National Assembly, a that is supposed to boast of maximum security like those found in a prison. Some concerned Nigerians have turned the situation into a episode of mockery by putting out fliers on social media.
Yesterday Senate President Bukola Saraki visited Buhari at the Presidential Villa, and the duo had a closed door meeting that lasted for hours. The emergency meeting may be related to the missing budget.
As we all know the Nigerian Senate was scheduled to commence deliberation on the proposed budget on Tuesday. But Senate Leader, Ali Ndume, shocked lawmakers at a closed-door session, when he told them the budget documents had been stolen, according to reports.
Mr. Ndume, reportedly explained that deliberation on the budget could therefore not begin until fresh copies of the documents were obtained from the presidency, the Ministry of Finance or that of national planning.
