Obi Faults Tinubu’s N2.17tn Supplementary Budget

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has faulted the signing into law of the N2.17 trillion supplementary budget by President Bola Tinubu.

President Bola Tinubu signed the 2023 Supplementary Budget of 2.17 trillion naira into law yesterday after the National Assembly passed the Appropriation Bill after a third reading.

Reacting in a statement, Obi claimed that the president failed to consider certain emergencies and pressing needs of the country.

He noted that, going by the manner in which the budgetary allocations were done, it was obvious the president was unaware of the dire crisis in the country.

Some allocations in the supplementary budget sparked public outrage.

Notable among them were the N5 billion for a presidential yacht, the N4 billion request for the renovation of the president’s Abuja residence, and the N2.5 billion allocation for the vice president's quarters.

Amidst the ongoing political turmoil in Rivers State, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) has issued a resounding call for a calm and peaceful resolution.

On Tuesday, October 31, 2023, the PDP's National Working Committee (NWC) released a statement emphasizing the need for dialogue and peaceful solutions in addressing the current political dispute. The NWC urged all parties involved in the disagreement to pursue a peaceful resolution and encouraged PDP members and supporters to remain composed.

The party assured the public that it had initiated internal conflict resolution processes to address and resolve all areas of contention.

The recent escalation of tension between Nyesome Wike and Siminalayi Fubara came to the forefront when an attempt to impeach Governor Fubara failed, raising concerns about the political stability of the state.

However, in a surprising turn of events, Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, were seen shaking hands at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. They, along with several other state governors, including Yahaya Bello (Kogi), Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Ahmadu Fintiri (Adamawa), Bala Mohammed (Bauchi), Abdullahi Abba (Kano), and Bassey Ottu (Cross River), attended a closed-door meeting of the Police Council, chaired by President Bola Tinubu.

The meeting also included notable figures such as the chairman of the Police Service Commission (PSC) and the Inspector-General of Police (IGP).
