Manifestos are like wedding proposals that a man makes when he desires the hand of a cherished woman in marriage. According to our laws, neither the marriage proposal nor the manifesto are legal documents because most of the terms used are often sensational and emotionally- laden so as to induce or mislead the other party into doing something that they would not have done ordinarily. While the elections have come and gone, there has been a lot of hue and cry about the 2016 budget which has thrown into the public glare some milloin dollar questions, that is: (1)who were those responsible for the preparation of 2016 budget (2) Did the APC leadership that drafted the party manifesto have a hand in the 2016 budget (3) what is d moral implication of deviating from the contents and intents of rhe 2015 manisfesto (4) Since the APC thought it wise to make copies of d manifesto available to the masses when they were seeking our votes, is it out of place if they make copies of the 2016 budget available so we can monitor and check for alignment and deviations. As observed by the late Thomas Jefferson, vigilance is the price of liberty. Constructive comments are welcome, pls.
