For many years, elected chief executives have
been hiding under ‘security votes’ to budget for themselves millions of naira
every month without any form of accountability on how such money is spent.
Many state governors collect as much as N500
million monthly (N6 billion annually) as security vote without any explanation
of how the money is spent.
I therefore prescribe that the monthly Security
Votes should be accounted for by each state governor.
A system that allows you
to receive millions of naira each month without accounting for its expenditure
is the greatest incentive for STEALING.
