2017 Budget: Buhari sets up committee on revenue generation
President Muhammadu Buhari has constituted a committee to raise additional revenues from oil and other sectors to support the funding of the 2017 budget.
The Minister of Budget and National Planning , Sen. Udoma Udo Udoma, made this known at the public presentation of the 2017 budget proposal in Abuja on Monday, the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports.
He stated the report of the committee would be ready in time for the National Assembly to take into account while considering the budget next year.
The minister said, “We should not allow ourselves to be discouraged by those who say we can’t find the money to fund the spending required to implement this budget.
“We must, and we can, find the resources.
REFLECTION- My God! Set up committee when you have Ministers?
Ministers are meant to come up with money generating policies amongst others. These are really " noise makers". Please wonder no more why Nigeria is DEAD.
GEJ'S Minister had 3 briefs on the road map in the implementation of the Transformation Agenda.
1) GEJ sets his policies.
2) The Ministers of various Ministries are meant to use their God given brains to develope a process of implemention of GEJ'S policies.
3) The Ministers must in their implementation achieve some objectives amongst which are REVENUE GENERATION AND EMPLOYMENT a must.
GEJ'S Minister can't do rubbish has they present their ROAD MAP at the Federal Executive Council meeting (FEC) for robust discussion (debate) by members with GEJ leading. Whatever success recorded by GEJ was not a fluke as every member in FEC must have robustly debated it before implementation.
Not lazy man's revenue generation of exploiting Nigerians by taxing their lives out but revenue from policy implementation. Any dead brain can raise money through taxes- The only route APC knows. No policy coordination.Everyone waking up and doing what they want.
Honestly, leadership can't be bought. You either have it or you dont. APC should approach PDP for some lesson. Am not saying this out of sacasim but Nation building.
