This is really outrageous, money that will go a long way in reducing poverty in Nigeria that is what was spent on a burial, the truth is if we continue like this I doubt if we would ever get better. A sum of N7 billion (naira) of Nigeria's tax payers funds was wasted on the burial of the foster mother of Nigeria's first lady, Patience Jonathan in her hometown of Okrika in Rivers State over the weekend.
The events which kicked off on Thursday saw the attendance of the President , Vice President, several state governors and ministers. Saharareporters sources said funds for the burial were taken from several ministries including the FCT, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, the ministry of Education, Delta State, Bayelsa state and the ministry of defence.
So if they spend this much on the death of someone I wonder how much they'll spend for a child dedication.
WOW: 7 Billion Naira Wasted On First Lady's Foster Mother Burial
