His reactions were contained in strings of tweets via his handle @General_IBB.
Day before yesterday the Senate said the N10 billion smuggled into the Education budget was a typographical error, few days earlier. Health minister, Prof Adewole told the nation that his ministry’s budget was tampered with.
The over N30.8 million earmarked for rent was

N445.5 million is set aside for food in the Villa.
“I built Aso Rock and I wonder who the current Landlord is. I read a certain N22M for the payment of Aso Rock rent. Rent to who, Me or GEJ?” the former president who annulled the June 12 presidential election tweeted.
The former self styled military president also tweeted ” I strongly believe our Politicians are well fed. The Aso Rock food budget should be reviewed. Aso Rock is not a place to feed Politicians.”
