PDP Reps plot protest against President over 2018 budget

Apparently disatistisfied with the level of budget implementation for 2016 and 2017 fiscal years, members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the House on Tuesday vowed to stage a protest as President Muhammadu presents Budget 2018.

The PDP members after leaving the executive session on the floor of the House gathered at Hearing room two where they held a caucus meeting on how to stage the protest.

Some of the placards sighted by Vanguard read”change the change”, ‘implement 2016 and 2017 budget or resign’ and some other unprintable graffiti’.

The PDP lawmakers left the venue of the meeting immediately at about 1 30pm and were seen concealing placards underneath their clothes.

They refused to talk to the press but a lawmaker among them quickly pointed out that “our Acting Leader Oyeama Chukwuma did not storm out rather we sent him to join the leadership team.
