2016 budget documents missing from National Assembly
Haven’t heard more embarrassing news in a while.
The hard and soft copies of the 2016 N6.08 trillion budget documents presented to the National Assembly by President Muhammadu Buhari on December 22, 2015, are now missing.
The announcement was made by Senate Leader, Ali Ndume at a closed-door session. Some lawmakers pointed accusing fingers at the Presidency adding that he quietly withdrew the documents after detecting some discrepancies in them.
“Can you imagine this kind of national embarrassment? “Documents that were presented to us with fanfare have been stolen.” One Senator reacted.
Copies were however not distributed to lawmakers before they proceeded on Christmas and New Year holidays.
The Chairman, Senate Committee of Appropriation, Danjuma Goje , has reportedly been mandated to lead a search for the documents and liaise with the presidency, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters, Ita Enang, and the national planning ministry on the matter.

N82m Dinner: APC Apologises to Soyinka
caretaker governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, that the immediate past Rivers State Government under the watch of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi spent a whopping N82 million to organise a birthday dinner in honour of the revered statesman in the state capital, Port Harcourt. Rivers APC in a statement signed by its State Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya and issued Monday in Port Harcourt described Wike’s allegation as unfortunate.
“On behalf of the good people of Rivers State, we hereby tender an unreserved apology to Prof. Soyinka and to assure him that Wike’s vile attempt to link him to an imaginary corruption will fail. This accusation is nothing but the ranting of a drowning man looking for whom to pull into the stinking pool but Wike has over-reached himself this time because Prof. Soyinka is globally renowned as a man of unimpeachable integrity who has never been associated with corruption
in his over 80 years on earth”.
