Senate approves GEJ's $1billion loan to fight Boko Haram

The Senate has approved the $1billion (N165bn) loan requested by President Jonathan in July to help in the fight against terrorism and tackle insecurity in the country. The loan would be used for the purchase of military equipment and the training of military personnel.

The loan approved will be in addition to the N968.127bn voted for Defence in the 2014 budget by the federal government.

Election campaign money provided .Even if they approve and provide twice that amount , nothing will change , the soldiers will still be running away from BOKO . Some people have just become multi millionaires . Nigeria we hail thee.

Where is the billions on naira budgeted for the military and national security in the last four years? Who has that money? What was done with it? What has the national assembly done to ensure accountability? Our system of checks and balances is a joke! One billion dollars and BH will go away? Who is fooling who? Opportunity for some people to get richer! Our military men are I'll equipped, police are not equipped, forget the navy... No one very thinks about them, as for the air force... Who are supposed to carry out air strikes on these fools, they are missing in action or they don't have enough functional jets to do the job or go on recon missions. This country just has too much money and the leaders are bent on wasting it till the coming generations have nothing to carry on with. Ask about this billion on a few months time, no one will be able to account for every penny of it. Its a pity, our budget is jst another sharing of the cake!

Unknown said...

This people won't kill this country! I'm sure the chunk of the money is going for 2015 PDP campaign, GEJ regime is so corrupt and I cannever trust him with anything.

Sometimes I wonder if they make up these figures. Cos now there's no more ebola, what happened to the N9 billion released for it?

A billion dollars is no joke. That kind of money should be enough to not only destroy every BH bases and person in Africa but also rebuild the towns they destroyed and pay for schooling of every child in that region.

This is sad news because the money will not be used for the right purpose it was borrowed for. It will end up in private bank accounts scattered all over the world. They are only deceiving us Nigerians. My people will keep being religious fanatics and surely, they are waiting for God to come down to Nigeria to solve our problems. The truth is we need to wake up as Nigerians and ask questions, organize protests to let government know we are getting fed up. We take it from there. If you want good governance, you fight for it..not sit and look attitude
