Alleged budget padding: Peter Obi calls for immediate review of 2024 budget

The former Anambra governor further expressed concern about
the high cost of food and the epileptic power supply in the country.

“We have become one of the hungriest nations in the world
and one of the most difficult nations in the world to live in, with food prices
constantly going out of the reach of most Nigerians.

“Power supply is abysmally poor and Nigerians are now mostly
in total darkness,as over 60% are without power supply.

“Even those in perceived privileged areas now go for days
without power supply”, he wrote.

He however, urged the executive and legislative arms to
consider the many challenges facing the nation and re-allocate resources to
these very critical areas.
