₦142 Billion For Bus Terminals Is Misplaced Priority – Peter Obi To FG

Former Governor Peter Obi criticized the Federal Government's allocation of ₦142 billion for the construction of bus terminals, calling it a misplaced priority. He urged the government to prioritize spending scarce resources on areas that would benefit citizens more.

Obi emphasized that the success or failure of a government is determined by how it allocates its funds. He highlighted the tragic irony of the country where many citizens suffer in poverty while essential infrastructure is in dire need of upgrades.

Obi's comments came after the Federal Executive Council approved the construction of the bus terminals. He emphasized the need for the government to reconsider its priorities and focus on projects that would have a more significant impact on improving the lives of the people.
