(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/nexusnew/nigerdeltanews.ng/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Former Education Minister, Oby Ezekwesili, has accused President Bola Tinubu, the National Assembly, and state governor of indulging in the worst display of fiscal rascacity.<\/p>\n
Ezekwesili accused Tinubu, NASS, and state governors of spending scarce public funds on projects and luxuries while Nigeria is highly overburdened with debts of all kinds.<\/p>\n
Her remark is coming when the presidency procured a presidential jet worth N150million for Tinubu\u2019s usage.<\/p>\n
But, in a post on his X page titled: \u201cThe Obscene Indulgence of our Political and Public Officials in a Season of Famine,\u201d the former minister, the former minister wrote: \u201cWhat a big shame on the @NigeriaGov of @NGRPresident @officialABAT and the lawmakers @nassnigeria! The worst display of fiscal rascality is when political and public leaders of a country that is highly overburdened with debts of all kinds, choose to spend scarce public resources on prestige projects and luxuries.<\/p>\n
\u201cImagine the @NGRPresident and his Vice, @NGRSenate and @HouseNGR of @nassnigeria and the Governors of mostly unviable 36 states enjoying obscene luxuries while asking the Poor \u201cto sacrifice for the future\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cSomething will have to give someday soon, because this level of unjust governance is frankly not sustainable.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Class War that members of the Nigerian political class are asking for by their insensitivity to the plight of the people will for sure end their fiscal rascality. Again, this level of unjust governance is frankly not sustainable.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor one, the current Citizens\u2019 restiveness will remain with us no matter how much the folks in @NigeriaGov pretend that it is not hunger that drove citizens into the massive #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests.<\/p>\n
\u201cHaving been following the raging controversy on the \u201cSalaries of Lawmakers @nassnigeria\u201d the deja vu is uncanny; recalling a similar uproar that followed a Keynote Speech I delivered on Cost of Governance on August 19, 2013<\/p>\n
@cislacnigeria conference.<\/p>\n
\u201cYesterday was exactly eleven years ago of that saga.\u201d<\/p>\n
