IBB asks who collects the rent in Aso Rock – Reminds Nigerians that he built it


Former head of state, Ibrahim Babangida, has given his speech to the criticism presently associated with the 2016 national budget that was presented to the National Assembly last year December by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The former president in his response to the ongoing criticism trailing the purported payment of rent in the Aso Rock requested to know who the landlord is?

He also advised the country’s politicians, saying: “I strongly believe our Politicians are well fed. The Aso Rock food budget should be reviewed. Aso Rock is not a place to feed Politicians.”
PMB who hammered so hard on the economic difficulties facing the country following the sudden fall in crude oil prices, guaranteed Nigerians that the budget would alleviate the consequence of the unbelievable reality. The president also assured that the budget would cut waste from government expenditure while its funds would be directed to public good.

But, the recent analysis of the budget, particularly the provisions made to the Aso Rock villa, ignited violent response from Nigerians who took to Twitter to inquire for answers that are still in the pipeline. Some labelled the budget as a collection of deceitful and frivolous allocations aimed at sustaining the ostentatious lifestyle of public officials.
