Atiku Seeks Probe into ‘Unexplained’ N12.8 Trillion in 2026 Budget
Chuks Okocha in Abuja
Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, has called on the National Assembly to rise above partisan considerations and immediately commence a comprehensive, line-by-line investigation into every allocation under the Service-Wide Vote, particularly the N2.19 trillion personnel provision.
He said parliament must insist on full disclosure of the beneficiaries, legal basis, and spending framework for every kobo appropriated under the heading.
“A government that cannot explain where trillions of naira are going has forfeited the moral authority to demand sacrifice from its citizens. It is time to open the books, expose the truth and restore integrity to Nigeria’s budgeting process. The Nigerian people deserve nothing less.”
