Reduce The Way You Borrow Money, Lawan Tells Buhari by sharpden: 9:02pm On Oct 07, 2020
Senate President Ahmad Lawan on Wednesday warned the Buhari administration to minimise its borrowing by considering other alternatives to fund projects.

The Debt Management Office estimated Nigeria’s debt to have hit N31 trillion as of June.

This marks an increase of N18.89 trillion over the N12.12 trillion in 2015.

Mr. Lawan, in a statement on his Twitter page, said the Senate is considering plugging waste by the amendment of Sections 21(1) and 21(2) of the Fiscal Responsibility Act and other laws to enhance operations of all revenue generating agencies.

“While we put in all necessary measures to enhance government revenue, the Federal Government would need to reduce its borrowing by seeking alternative ways of implementing infrastructural projects not funded through local and foreign loans”, Lawan said.

The Senate during Wednesday’s plenary passed the 2021-2023 medium term expenditure framework and fiscal strategy paper.

This was done ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s presentation of the 2021 Appropriation Bill to the National Assembly scheduled to hold on Thursday.

As if he will hear.

Buhari is a bad administrator.

Like one of those useless coin keepers described in the bible.

If Buhari was Pharoah in Joseph's day, Egypt would have still plunged into recession.

Lol,
Oga is going through some epiphany? Tomorrow he will still help pass another borrowing bill with a very perculiar fat face.. The country is already in the pit. Thanks to those who are still inflating the payroll by hiring all sorts of unskilled relatives into the civil service from the back door.

Seems the rubberstamp stooge Senate president has looted so much money from senseless borrowing that he is now tired of stamping more loan requests?

Imagine appropriating #37B for NASS rehabilitation even when the nation is smarting out from COVID19 pandemic Waiting for the attack dogs Garba Shehu, Femi Adeshina etc will attack him for now cautioning their boss against unprofitable borrowing.

Rubber stamp Senate President. This is more like a kid begging his father for his school fees.

Who approves the money he borrows? Why not go hard on him if he doesn't seek senate approval for the loans?

As it stands today we have only 3 persons in one arm of the government. The Executive, the legixecutive and the judixecutive.

Nonsense

Very sad cry

The Senate President does not know how powerful he is in a democracy. He has been reduced to a wailing wailer and political activist in his own Legislative chambers....pathetic angry

After wailing...he will still endorse more loans....what a clown..

True. We need to keep diversifying our revenue stream but we should not stop taking the loans from China especially that agreement, CCEC is it?

Many ignorant people don't know that loans used to bridge the infrastructural gap is what every nation, especially a third world one like us need.

If we take loans and fix all the roads and all the trains and we have to pay for tolls and tickets, we don't mind.

First time Lawan will say something sensible

As in Buhari borrows as if there's no tomorrow

I hope he (Buhari) will not misunderstand looking for other means of generating money by taxing the air we breathe grin cheesy grin grin

Nigerians would have understood his borrowing if they are reaping the dividends

At least if person owe, you go know why you are owing

But in Buhari's case, its not reflecting in the lives of Nigerians except politicians

The roads even Federal roads are VERY BAD!

Food stuffs are VERY EXPENSIVE undecided despite closing the border

We pay multiple tax

Crude oil is also very expensive

So he should stop borrowing on our behalf ooooo
