Full Access to 2012 Budget Proposal
2012 January 10
This week it was discovered that the Ministry of Finance and Budget Office had pulled the 2012 Budget Proposal from the internet, thereby restricting public access to these documents. In the interest of public accountability, we have created a full archive of these documents under our Primary Resources section. Please feel free to read through the library of these documents and help us track down waste and inflation.

Keep the good work as you become one the many Nigerians GOD Almighty is working through to bring change in our nation.
Malam El rufai …… I hv known you 4 ur truthfulness long time ago even b4 u became DG BPE or minister at ur office in angwa seriki. May the lord help protect & give u more wisdom in the fight of helping the masses of this great country. Am also happy 4 the truth u said about the fuel subsidy fraud & waistfulness in the govt of an in expirence hand we voted 4 enmass. God bless you Malam.
kepp the good work. whats the way foward in 2015?. The foot work needs to start now, these crooks and their platform (PDP) for riging election needs to be flushed out. I beleive it is possible because the South West People just did it.
May Allmighty Allah, save Nigerians, from the hand of bad learders…
Mallam Nasir,i believe in your policies & brilliance. Your interview on Ait 9th January was an exposition to many Nigerians. Keep the flag flying while you speak the minds of many and we will support you wholly. Friend,lets see what 2015 holds for us as we support El-Rufai/Fashola for nation building.
THE MOST OBSCURE EVENT IN NIGERIA:
NLC/TUC (Workers) strike declares as illegal by: Federal Government; While Federal Government (Executive Arm) itself implemented fuel subsidy removal policy without the assent of the Legislative Arm of Government, In the same vein; without provision for the basic and adequate paliative measures first in place, like:
1. Refineries
2. Constant Electricity Power Supply
3. Medicare Services
4. Water
5. Education
6. Roads/Railway
7. Transport scheme
8. Industries
9. Empoyment and proper sensitisation programme to the public (Citizens) which is 100% undemocratic and illegal; this policy implementation act by Federal Government is autocratic. The above listed projects will be reality if only all the politicians will accept to reduce their spendings starting from the President down to Councillors as follows: Salaries; Allowances; Unnecessary Trips and Unnecessary Seminars and other Unaccountable funds of Nigerians that they have been squandering all over the years; not on fuel subsidy alone). Note: Making Laws and Policies is the sole responsibility of the Legislative Arm of Government not the Executive Arm of Government; and again, It is the sole responsibility of the House of Reps and the Senate (Legislators) to deliberate and scrutinise any new policy that is being presented to the house before approval for implementation; The Legislators are also ought to check (Supervise) what is going-on in and out side the Executive of Arm of Government. Nigeria is currently operating from 2011 budget which will expire by: March 2012 according to the Reps members; and they are not even aware of the fuel subsidy removal (Surprise) by the FG, It baffle me were the PMS subsidy is removed from. Fellow Nigerians, Think twice! And you will understand what is really going-on within the Executive Arm.
Sir, ur impeccable track record speaks 4 u. Whatever u r doing do it right and always stregthen it with sincerity. One of our country’s enduring challenges is trustworthy leadership. I wish u well in all ur endevours.
With all the praises and worship people r giving u above is just that u r not on the hot sit now.u r by the side but let me tell u ur time as the FCT minister was the worst in ur history.u killed alot of people and u made alot homeless cos u wanted to satisfy ur God fathers.Let god be the judge and not the people.thanks
God bless u sir for exposing d evil in ur society.we need credible n fearless people like you and pastor Bakare for 2015.don’t relent
@omonaija,its only those who doesn’t abide by d laws of the land dat were rendered homeless. there was need 4 sanitization of Abuja n he was the messiah @ dat time.
Mallam keep the good work your doing for the benefit of the nigerian masses ALLAH ya mana jagora shugaban talakawa
Well done Sir, your deeds will surely speak for you by 2015. Keep it up. Allah is our strenght!
well, you r a complimented blessing to ths Country Mal. Nasir
You give us voice n we say thank you. We discuss ths at every debate, everywhere bcos only few are immune to the humiliaating antics of ths govt.
Have u forgot d damage u have done to the country econamy when u re bpe n what u did when u re fct minister u re bird of d same feather wiz them its bcs u re not part of them dat is why u re speaking n looking 4 cheap popularity shut up ur mouth.
certainly malam nasir can nt be perfect cause he is human.on d issue of bpe n fct,yes he might hav done one or two things wrong but thank God he has chosen to tell d truth n nothin less.more gress to all ur joints
lets give dis govt a chance. it is dere time. gud or bad dey re our leaders rite nw. if u ever get 2 d top again change watever u can change and make tings beta. remeber no one is a saint.
Nasir, I don’t know when you suddenly became an advocate of rule of law and transparency, the same you that was bulldozing FCT like an emperor, even against court injunction.
The problem with you politicians is that when ever you are left out of any dispensation, you become very antagonistic, and try playing on the gallery to win cheap political points. If not that Nigeria is full of corrupt people, ur likes should be languishing in jail now. You still have case in both BPE and FCT to answer. Allow those who have not stained there hands in corruption to advocate for the masses.
Pls can not find the library of the document to click on
Need to about whatever government is Doing
Sir,I love what u doing cuz if not for this not all Nigerian’s knows about this.keep doing ur graet work.thanks
Omonaija needs to have his head re-examined. When Mallam was FCT minister, you were one of those who hated nigeria and acted against the state with you run down squatters home that was defacing the whole city. After Mallam left Abuja has experienced the worst kind of slumming, yet you have guts to speak against him. You need help in deed.
wen will Nigerian ever be grateful?those who critisize elrufai,go back n analyse the public hearing on fct n bpe during the time of elrufai u will surely be convinced he tried his best which most cannot do if u find urself there.Enough time was given to restructue fct to design bt most felt he can not do it.
Well, i see no big deal in the withdrawal of the budget from the net…i think since there has been a reintroduction of subsidy partly, which was completly not in the initial budge, that makes it null and void, hence the need for adjustment and change to reflect the subsidy and perhaps the 25 per cent cut down in overhead proposed by govt.
so there is really no fuss for all these since the document will still be put back for public view.
Thanks for the info, whoever curses you doesn’t know d kind of leaders they want or need, when you were Fct minister, we had one decent city in Nigeria which we can boast of, now abuja is just a shadow of itself, beggars flood d streets like they’ve just been released from assylum, d squalid satelite towns are just springing up everywhere, when i drive around d city, i feel so sad and always wished you are still d minister! God will answer our prayers and give us Credible Leaders that will change the history of this nation for good.
VOICE OF REASON ONLY THE WISE UNDERSTAND YOU.MNELR.
Thanks for identifying with us. Thanks for the risk of daring the powers that be. God almighty and History will not judge You for unholy silence.
El – Rufai, you are indeed a typical Nigeria Politician who wish to be every Govt and once is not possible , you become an antagonistic activist . Iam sure you lost out of position with this present Govt . Show us the yearly budget of Govt when you were a Minister; remember the number of Court injunction you disobeyed as a Minister . OBJ’s regime had several ills and wastages, how many did you bring to our notice . You are a friend of the masses . Go and check your list of land allocation 3 months before your administration ended . It is indeed true that you have a multiple personality disorder. Pls check page 56 of guardian newspaper, jan 17, 2012 :
Sir my interest in your person started when you re-structured Abuja, but anti change agent didn’t see the good in you, please keep the good work God will bless you for it, please keep us inform, God will protect you amen.
yes thank you sir,i think as they can give the figure of what we lost now,soo they sould be giveing weekly update for wat we nigeria gane also thank you…………………..????????????
I’ve been ignored, so for illustration purposes …

Though I still believe you fell far short of expectations during your obasanjo outing. That cannot take away your analytical skills. hope when you have opportunity to be back in government you will do differently.
Little wonders… Only God knows which era we are in. This is not democracy that we all hope for and this is not FRESH AIR in Nigeria that was promised. I am just pissed off with the Nigerian government
Thanks, malam, for you unearthed the truth we must not know before.keep mentoring,and we keep being optimistic about our future.sir, permit me to distribute your articles in print outs to my locals
Many tnx mal 4 bein wt d haples mases of 9ja. May Allah hlp our dear country, 9ja.
Mallam, i will be glad if you can throw your hat intio the ring cum 2015, may i suggest babatunde Fashola(SAn) the current governor of lagos as the VP. Nigerinas will vote for you.Please consider
Well done Mal. El-Rufai on the expositions on the Subsidy and the National Budget. Kindly also x-ray the excesses in the budget proposal of the Legislature – the National Assembly. That’s one area where there is so much rot that need to be brought to public discourse. Nigerians will be happier for it. Thanks and keep it up. Rgds.
ALLAH’s blessing upon you mallam, we nigerians are with you no matter what
It is very possible that the President is not really in charge or Maybe he is too busy, to read and ask pertinent schoolboy questions of the preparers of his budget , which will be a component of his legacy, Okay, so Mrs Iweala, also did not see this budget as prepared and did not “advise” on the need to “TRIM THE FAT”on this very important document.
I am ashamed that at this time and age the leadership and the National assembly is using political office as a means of acqiusition of wealth as opposed to bettering the lives of Nigerians.
What another brilliant piece!
Thank you for helping with the websites. I am studying the budget proposals carefully.
It is a shame that Mr president appended his signature on this document. Let’s all mobilise to ensure that the National Assembly do a thorough clinical analysis of the entire propositions with the bogus figures.
It is indeed a disaster to have the whole country messed up. Everything is doubled the normal price, all in the name of sharing in the national claim.
A revolution is coming soon!!! This will indeed sanitise the whole Nation, and only the newly birth Nigeria will be alive to witness the very new Nigeria.
Hello Nasir,
Just keep up the good work.
Among the elite, a lot of us are ignorant!!!
Just prepared for the position of the President by 2015 because you are the only threat that PDP has.
With God and our collective strategy, Aso Roack here we come in 2015.
Please note that our major problem in Nigeria is CORRUPTION.
Public office should be servant driven and let cut all the emoluments attached for public officers.
Only we that we are doing well as a professional would get there to serve our people.Let president’s salary & allowance be pegged at 30Million per annum and it comes down accross board.
It is well with Nigeria
I am just writing to tell you that there is a nationwide scarcity of vaccines.
our children will soon start dying of diseases that other countries have eradicated!
Sir El-rufai piece is a revelation and an eye openner, only the wise will appreciate the inspiration he has been blessed with by God. More grease to your elbow. Please, carry on God is with you.
We are now in a global village. What used to irk some of us is the fact that people in government take us for granted or stupid. So they tell us all sort of nonsense which they know we know. Because then the political space was not open we had no way of getting them accountable. Not any more. We will thru all government programs with a tooth comb and ask questions on any item we don’t understand. Keep it up.
I may not fully be in agreement with El-Rufai’s past at the BPE. But no one can deny that we need someone to do the job he is now doing! The Universities, NGOs, Civil Society generally and especially our representatives at the National Assembly have failed to ‘protect’ us. If Nasir El-Rufai takes it upon himself to shout against this great injustice, the least we can do is to support him-his past notwithstanding. After all the ‘enemy’ of your ‘enemy’ is is your friend-sometimes. Kudos to you Nasir! Keep Up The Good Work!
