Nigerians React as Senator Announces Extension of Budget Implementation Timeline

A statement attributed to Senator Ireti Kingibe concerning the extension of Nigeria’s budget implementation timeline has generated widespread reactions online, with many Nigerians expressing frustration over what they described as recurring delays and unfulfilled promises.

According to the statement circulating on social media, the extension was linked to the non-implementation of promises made by President Bola Tinubu’s administration and the existence of outstanding payments.

“Due to non-implementation of President Tinubu’s promises, we are forced to extend Nigeria’s budget to June 2026. Payments have commenced, but we still have a lots outstanding.”

The remark quickly attracted attention online, with many users criticizing the continued extension of deadlines and questioning the effectiveness of governance and budget execution.

Interesting. So after years of promises, the solution is simply to keep extending deadlines? Nigerians were promised results, not endless extensions. Accountability should come before excuses.
