Recall that last week, Buhari wrote the upper chamber, seeking its approval to borrow the sum from the World Bank.
The borrowing plan was to address the infrastructure deficit in the health, education, water resources and other sectors.
The president’s plans to borrow the sum was rejected by Nigerians, as many, including human rights activists said the proposed borrowing was not needed at such a time.
Their desire has however been met as the Senate overwhelmingly voted against Buhari's request after it was subjected to a voice vote.

ReplyDeleteThe Senate has never had a better time like this ; someone need to keep putting this tyrant on check! Borrowing for water resources? What infastructural deficit?
DeleteThis sector remain alien to me
First sensible thing the Senate has done. You'll borrow and leave debt for the next government.
ReplyDeleteLet's generate our own IR and use what we have to develop. Nigeria should even be banned from borrowing.
Was watching Sunrise daily yday and the dude said that the $2B we borrowed, we paid almost $15B back.

ReplyDeleteBorrowing is not the problem. He needs a clear-cut economic plan, powered by credible experts to oversee these resources. With the present team, I am afraid it'll be same old story.
