Nigerian Senate tells Amaechi to apologise or Resign....

Once a thief, always a thief!
 Amaechi and his APC clowns are so desperate to liquidate Nigerians. They started with their desperation to capture Asorock, yes they succeeded because Goodluck Jonathan chosed to save lives, even at that, innocent bloods are still flowing. Amaechi and his APC demons are men of the underworld who mischievously took over power to perfect the work of their master and King-the devil!

No fuel, no light, no food, no education, no transportation, no peace, blood shed everywhere in Nigeria yet Amaechi and his APC killers are comfortably living! They enjoy 24 hours electricity yet part of Nigerians. They go wherever they want to go without thinking of how or where to fuel their vehicles. They shed shed innocent bloods without a second thought about the Maker.

Shameless APC's with the heart of their father- the devil!


Budget falsehood: Senate tells Amaechi to apologise or resign

●says there was no Calabar-Lagos rail project  in the budget
●describes Amaechi  as a mischievous  politician plotting to set North and South  on collision  course

The senate has called for the resignation of Chibuike Amaechi, minister of transportation, over his claim that national assembly removed an item – the Lagos-Calabar rail project – from the 2016 budget.

The senate advised the presidency to come clean with Nigerians on the budget and “stop engaging in surreptitious campaigns of calumny against it in order to cover up its serial errors”.

Reacting to claims in the media credited to the executive arm of government on the 2016 budget, Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi, chairman, senate committee on media and public affairs, said the national assembly had bent backwards to wring a coherent document out of the excessively flawed and chaotic versions of the budget proposal submitted to it.

“While the executive is mandated to prepare and lay before the national assembly a proposed budget detailing projects to be executed, it should be made clear that the responsibility and power of appropriation lies with the national assembly,” he said in a statement.

“If the presidency expects us to return the budget proposal to them without any adjustments, then some people must be living in a different era and probably have not come to terms with democracy.

“We make bold to say, however, that the said Lagos-Calabar rail project was not included in the budget proposal presented to the national assembly by President Muhammadu Buhari and we challenge anyone who has any evidence to the contrary to present such to Nigerians.

“Since the beginning of the 2016 budget process, it is clear that the national assembly has suffered all manners of falsehood, deliberate distortion of facts, and outright blackmail, deliberately aimed at poisoning the minds of the people against the institution of the national assembly.

“We have endured this with equanimity in the overall interest of Nigerians. Even when the original submission was surreptitiously swapped and we ended up having two versions of the budget, which was almost incomprehensible and heavily padded in a manner that betrays lack of coordination and gross incompetence, we refused to play to the gallery and instead helped the executive to manage the hugely embarrassing situation it has brought upon itself; but enough is enough.

“This latest antics of this particular minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, is reckless, uncalled for and dangerously divisive. Apart from setting the people of the southern part of the country against their northern compatriots, it potentially sets the people against their lawmakers from the concerned constituencies and sets the lawmakers against themselves.

“This manner of reprehensible mischief has no place in a democracy. We hereby demand from Mr. Amaechi a publicly tendered apology if he is not able to show evidence that the Lagos-Calabar road project was included in the budget. Otherwise, he should resign forthwith.

“Finally, by the provision of Section 81 (4) (a) and (b) of the constitution, the President is allowed to sign the budget and kick-start the implementation of the other areas that constitute over 90 percent of the budget where there is agreement between both arms, even as we engage ourselves to resolve the contentious areas, if there were any. We therefore maintain that even this contrived discrepancies are not sufficient excuse not to sign the budget into law.

“We therefore urge President Buhari to sign the 2016 budget without any further delay. For every additional day that the president withholds his assent from the bill, the hardship in the land, which is already becoming intolerable for the masses of our people gets even more complicated. Certainly, as primary representatives of the people we shall not vacate our responsibility and watch the people continue to suffer unduly.”
