The Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning has denied withholding funds appropriated for the Nigerian Army.<\/p>\n

The Ministry which stated that the funds were released at the right time, said N1trn had been released for the Nigerian Army from 2019 till April 2021.<\/p>\n

Minister of Finance<\/a>, Zainab Ahmed made the disclosure during an interactive session with members of the Senate Committee on Army chaired by Senator Ali Ndume.<\/p>\n

Ahmed also revealed that apart from funding the budget of the army almost 100 per cent, there had been a lot of instances where the security service went to the president<\/a>, got special approvals and still got the funds.<\/p>\n

Giving a breakdown of the money disbursed to the Nigerian army between 2019 and April 2021, the Minister said N129.69bn was for capital; N39.76bn, overhead; N681.79bn, personnel and N157.6bn, special releases.<\/p>\n

Ahmed added;<\/p>\n
