The 2012 Nigerian budget has about 1bn naira allocated for feeding in Aso rock...na §☺ Jonathan dey chop reach?
How many days make a year? 366 days for 2012. Please divide 1 billion Naira by 366 days, you get #2.73 million. This is the cost of feeding the Nigerian President and his Vice by Tax Payers.
They will not pay Lekki Toll gate if they pass through, their children won't pay. LASU increased fees and they are going to use free fuel despite planned removal of Oil subsidy. I've asked myself: are we singing same National Anthem...........
Ummmmm............
Do you know President Obama pays for his own food from his own pocket? And he is paid less than our SENATORS (they are paid 3 times as much) ? And we have 109 of them.
