APC Chairman John Oyegun says Buhari needs N4.1tn for salaries, others

National Chairman of the APC, Chief John Oyegun, said the incoming All Progressives Congress administration will require about N4.1trillion to offset part of the debt left behind by the outgoing President Goodluck Jonathan administration. He said this  during a retreat for Senators elected on the party’s platform, in Abuja, on Saturday.

He explained that the Buhari administration would require the funds to pay the outstanding salaries of public servants at the state and federal levels, fuel subsidies, as well as debt servicing, among other expenses.
Oyegun urged Senators to be prepared to pass requisite laws at short notices, in the course of their duty in the National Assembly.
 
He said: “While I congratulate all of you on your elections, I must quickly add that I don’t envy you. This is because you are being called to service at one of the most challenging periods in the history of our nation.
"Make no mistake about it, the days ahead will be tough, and this is not crying wolf. From the first day of this government, a total of N4.1 trillion will be required for sundry expenses, including oil subsidy payment, arrears of salaries at federal and state levels and debt servicing, just to mention a few.
“Put this against the background of the falling oil prices, the unprecedented $60bn debt which the outgoing government has left for the incoming one, the largely depleted Excess Crude Account, the $60 bn that have been lost in the last four years to crude oil theft (and which are perhaps still being lost as we speak), the need to rapidly create jobs for our teeming army of unemployed youths, enhance the security of the citizenry and improve the economy, and you will begin to understand the enormity of the challenges ahead.”
Oyegun also said that a lot of Nigerians have high expectations of the new administration and some even expect instant miracles. He said some are expecting the  fuel queues would disappear and electricity supply would normalize as soon as the inauguration was over and done with on the of May 29 and 30th.
The party chairman said while the APC remains committed to ensuring that things normalise, it is not possible for this to happen overnight. Hence will need patience from the populace.

Punch.

Oyegun is very scared now. After all the promises made you are complaining every time you open your mouth. Every nation in the world has debts including the U.S. and all European countries. It is how you manage it that is the main thing. Nogetia has managed its debt well and APC must better get its act in order. Since when did a single government incurr debts? Debts is incurred by successive governments and retired as the economy is improved. So Oyegun quit talking and complaining. You must fulfill all your campaign promises. Period.

Buhari should do same like putin, take all the rig licences n deliver to states, probe GEJ 6 years administration, retrieve all stolen funds and jail all cronies politicians. Discourage luxuries with taxes like 25% on 3 above start hotels, private jets, 1st class flight tickets, private schools and institutions etc all these taxes should be use to develop corresponding public institutions. Also all ministries should be self sustaining by being able to pay there staffs salaries and also generates into federal account else such should be shut down or merge with another. Civil service retirement age should be 20 yrs so fresh blood and ideals can be injected into the system. Amnesty should be stopped and funds diverted into vocational studies, police to be state owned and entry qualifications same as civil services cos this country have more school dropped outs, criminals, touts in the police than intellectuals. Seriously the whole system made of nigeria needs to be overhaul.

I call this sabotage, so GEJ is leaving behind a huge mess so Buhari can under-perform and people will then judge him as incompetent since the mess he will inherit will be too much to handle

You are so naïve!

GMB must probe GEJ & all d ministers that worked with GEJ. If he probe them thoroughly like Sanusi deal with Ibru & Co I'm sure he will recover atleast N4trillion naira out of N4.1 trillion he needs to kick-start is administration & pay workers salaries
