Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has accused the Nigerian government under President Bola Tinubu of concurrently implementing four national budgets.
Obi claims that evidence supports his allegation, asserting that this practice blatantly disregards fiscal responsibility, transparency, and accountability, and could lead to chaos and confusion.
In a statement issued on Saturday via his X handle, the former Anambra State Governor emphasised the need for immediate reversal of this situation in favour of a more responsible and transparent budgeting process.
He criticised both the National Assembly and the executive for allowing such a practice.
“All available evidence has confirmed that the Nigerian government is implementing four national budgets concurrently.
“This is in blatant disregard for fiscal responsibility, transparency, and accountability. It is also a recipe for chaos, confusion, and catastrophe,” Obi stated.
