#BudgetOfCorruption: FG Allocated N795m For Website "Update" In Signed 2016 Budget

 

Back in February, Nigerians bemoaned the allocation of  N795,234,275 for Federal Ministry Of Solid Minerals' "WEBSITE UPDATE" on the 2016 budget proposal, thanks to the eagle eyes of some social media users.

Today May 18th 2016, after a soft copy of the 2016 budget was made available online (download here) following the signing of the budget by the Federal Government Of Nigeria on May 6 2016, NGLatest.com has scooped through the contents of the signed budget to discover that the sum of N795,234,275 was still allocated to "WEBSITE UPDATE" under the Federal Ministry Of Solid Minerals but under a different name "IT Automation".

See the differences:

In February President Muhammadu Buhari promised to sack some workers from the Budget Office Of The Federation following the "padding" of the then unsigned 2016 budget.
