The budget also provides for N40.45 million new presidential kitchen.
The Pond news understands that the provision for the presidency feeding is outrageous for a nation whose national minimum wage stands at thirty thousand naira ,a month.
It is also reality that many Nigerians are finding it difficult to feed and public universities doors closed for eight months running because of the trade dispute between the federal government and ASUU.
