The documents of the 2016 budget handed over
by President Muhammadu Buhari on December 22, 2015 have been reportedly
declared missing, Premium Times informs.
As the Nigerian Senate was going to commence deliberation on the
proposed budget today, Tuesday, Senate leader Ali Ndume disclosed that
the hard and soft copies of the budget documents had been stolen.
According to people familiar with the matter, Ndume explained that
deliberation on the budget could therefore not begin until fresh copies
of the documents were obtained from the presidency, the Ministry of
Finance or that of national planning.
Danjuma Goje, the chairman of Senate Committee of Appropriation, was
appointed to lead a search for the documents and liaise with the
presidency, the senior special assistant to the president on National
Assembly matters, Ita Enang, and the national planning ministry on the
matter.

Sources also disclosed that the Senators wanted to keep the matter
under wraps as it could embarrass the presidency, the National Assembly
and the country.
Senators of the Peoples Democratic Party reportedly accused the
presidency of being behind the theft of the documents. However, an
accusation was rejected by their All Progressives Congress’
counterparts.
Premuim Times reports that some lawmakers said they are suspicious
that the presidency might have colluded with the management of the
National Assembly to quietly withdraw the documents after detecting some
discrepancies in them.
“Can you imagine this kind of national embarrassment? Documents that were presented to us with fanfare have been stolen,” one senator said.

Aliyu Abdullahi, the spokesperson for the Senate, could not been
reached for comments, as well as Mr. Goje, the chairman of the
appropriation committee.
President Muhammad Buhari had presented a N6.08 trillion budget for
the fiscal year 2016. It was the first time in three years a Nigerian
President would personally present a budget before the National
Assembly.
In the budget, capital expenditure takes N1.8 trillion, marking a
significant over 300% increment from the 2015 vote of N557 billion. N396
billion is voted for education, the largest sectoral allocation. The
health sector gets N296 billion, while defence has N294 billion.
