2026 budget shock: National Assembly hid ₦9.8bn for buses, motorcycles and traditional rulers in Enugu college’s budget


National Assembly approved ₦9.887 billion for buses, motorcycles, tricycles, boats and vehicles under the 2026 budget of the Federal Co-operative College, Oji River, Enugu, despite the projects falling outside the school’s academic mandate.


The Federal Co-operative College in Oji River, Enugu State, received over ₦225 billion for capital expenditure in the 2026 Appropriation Act despite its primary focus on cooperative education.


Allocations totaling hundreds of millions of naira were earmarked for motorcycles, tricycles, and mini-pickups distributed across multiple federal constituencies in Gombe, Lagos, and Edo states.


Outboard boat engines and security patrol vehicles were designated for coastal and farming communities in the South-South region under the college’s line-item allocation.
