Line by line, it is obvious this budget is all about contracts for those who have access to the Villa, with little for regular Nigerians.

Private businesses and individuals don't have access to foreign currency but the presidency is spending what little we have on BMWs.

Hypocrisy of Muhammadu Buhari's budget is most glaring when one realizes FX is required to carry out most capital projects in the Presidency

APC's Budget is a testament to monumental government waste.

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

APC's meddling in the economy needs to stop, ONLY banks should determine what's acceptable collateral & what isn't.

Merry Christmas to all Nigerians. Don't let APC's mismanagement of the nation get you down, we shall keep fighting to make things better!

This is completely unconscionable considering the fact that Health and Education get a combined 12.4% while administration alone gets 12.8%.

By the most conservative estimate, 2016 Budget shall have a $15 Billion deficit, Nigerians shall borrow $5.7 bil for admin and to pay debt.

19/ deal for the people of Nigeria and a bad deal for the Nation. #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

18/ Mortgaging Nigeria's future with debt we shall struggle to repay so that APC can pretend it's doing something is a bad #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

17/ And it's very obvious that the answer is 'it's not'. #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

16/ Even on the basis of oil revenue shortfalls, the question thus becomes 'Is it worth it'? #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

15/ $17.4 Billion for the year. #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

14/ If Oil hovers at $30 for the year, we're looking at a $6.4 Billion deficit from oil revenue alone or a total deficit of #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

13/ Add this to the already projected $11 billion deficit and we're looking at a $13.4 billion deficit. #BudgetOfFantasy

[PDP Speaks @PDPSpeaks]

12/ Hence, if Oil averages $35 p.b for 2016, Nigeria's budget deficit shall be US$2.4 billion. #BudgetOfFantasy
