They say he's weak…
They say he'll die soon…
They say he can't stand/handle the country…
They say he's not fit…But what i see today is more than what i call fitness.
Long Live @MBuhari #Budget2018

Buhari's stamina is impressive for someone still recovering from 'the worst illness' he has experienced in 73 years. Impressive. #Budget2018

An impact assessment should be carried out on the 2017 budget. All these trillions with nothing to show.

Over 4Tn from Non-Oil Revenue? How? Do we plan selling our people? Because that's one other thing we have in excess.#Budget2018
— Flints (@fadewolu) November 8, 2017
Deficit=debt serv. So technically we're borrowing to pay off debts. Loans that have interest to pay debts that accumulated interest. Does it ever end? @Dr22wks @Iluturaki https://t.co/asr0OMT55u
— Mallam Shehu (@skyahaya) November 8, 2017
In addition, till date we haven't heard any concrete steps at paying off all debts besides the believe that infrastructural devt would help generate more taxes one way or the other.

Nigeria's Buhari: Lagos-Ibadan railway will be extended to Apapa & Tin Can Island ports, improving trade logistics.
Big deal, if it works.— John Ashbourne (@JohnAshbourne) November 7, 2017
Maybe this will save Lagos from itself. https://t.co/B8yiwb9jwC

We have heard big budget presentation celebrated for the past two years. Still Nigeria is caving in. Spare us the endless hopes.

Now that #Budget2018 has been presented, we can relax, grab some popcorn and drinks, as we prepare to watch FG steal ahead of 2019 elections

Advice
#Budget2018 I commend PMB on the presentation of the 2018 budget, but Nigeria must change investment strategy for sustainability growth.
— Roman Oseghale (@RomanOseghale) November 8, 2017
#Budget2018 If Nigeria must progress and have sustainable growth our budget must be majorly Capital Exp. that is where the investment is.
— Roman Oseghale (@RomanOseghale) November 8, 2017
#Budget2018 As 70% goes into Recurrent Exp. & 30% Capital Exp. we cannot grow as long as our expenses supercede our investment as a country
— Roman Oseghale (@RomanOseghale) November 8, 2017
#Budget2018 Infrastructure + Education + Healthcare = Unlimited Potential Growth in an Economy. 70% Recurrent Exp. cannot achieve that.
— Roman Oseghale (@RomanOseghale) November 8, 2017
We do not change
#Budget2018 for Health is N71bn. No end in sight for medical tourism.
— Andrew Echono (@adamechono) November 8, 2017
i feel the increase on the budget of the health and education sector is not good enough #Budget2018

1. I hope to see a scandal free "after-presentation budget.
2. We must ensure our budget is not just some piece of paper & a work of routine— Ademola-kay Adeleke (@LekeAdemolaKay) November 8, 2017
