Expert Charges FG On Budget Implementation
An expert in Banking
and Finance, Mr. Benedict Idowu has called on the Federal Government to ensure the full implementation of its budget for transparency and public accountability.
Idowu made the call in a chat with The Tide in Port Harcourt on Friday.
According to him, with the passage of the budget, the government should strive in ensuring that the budget was implemented to the later, inorder to justify the change mantra and fight against corruption.
The former bank executive noted that with full implementation, there would be infrastructural development in all sectors, adding that despite the dwindling economy, Nigeria is a rich country that with its resources when managed appropriately, would keep the country afloat.
He said the government should provide a platform for people to brainstorm with all relevant stakeholders and key players on how to move the country’s economy forward.
The expert further noted that with public participation on the implementation of the budget, transparency in governance would come to play while every allocation utilized to the later.
Idowu also reiterated that all hands must be on deck in solving the problems of the country, and not to chase people under the guise of fighting corruption, noting that Nigerians are yet to see the change mantra of the present administration.
He enjoined the government to ensure it understood the problems of Nigeria before its solution, rather than perceived political witch-hunt, stressing that urgent steps should be taken on the budget implementation.
