Wow!! 229 Delegates to accompany the PRESIDENT cost N2.2billion

A total of about 229 Nigerians will
accompany President Buhari to the,
Washington D.C, the United States
capital for his meeting with President
Barack Obama next week, Monday,
being the biggest Presidential
delegation in Nigerian democratic
history. This contingent is to cost
Nigeria about N2.2billion from the
virtually empty Treasury.
Although the government had
announced a 32-man delegation to
accompany President Buhari, unannounced
aides numbering average of 10 would
be accompanying governors, ex-
governors, State House officials and
businessmen on the trip. Apart from
the number about about 10
government officials have already left
the United States in what they claimed
is preparing grounds for the Visit.
Isn’t this absurd???
