Senators took turns to attack the Buhari led executive during plenary recently. Ok, the senate took to bashing the executive over budget implementation during plenary on Tuesday.And we aren’t going to pretend that it was pretty.One after the other, lawmakers took the executive to the cleaners over why the 2017 budget has been so poorly implemented.“How can we consider the 2018 budget when we cannot get the performance of the 2017 budget? There is no need for us to be in a hurry, the executive arm is not ready for the budget to be passed. Ministry of Power and some MDAs came unprepared”, screamed Sen Yayi Adeola. Senator Mao Ohuabunwa said; “we are lawmakers not lawbreakers. We must have to read the MTEF for months before looking at the budget and a minimum of 50% of the budget should be passed before the year runs out. There is no correlation between the 2017 budget and the coming 2018 budget”.
