Investigations have revealed a huge amount of money provided monthly to the Nigerian president and state governors, ostensibly for security purposes, that is unappropriated, unaudited and unaccounted for.
Although at present the amount of security money voted monthly for the Nigerian president is undisclosed, a reliable source in Edo state Government House confided to that the state governor at the time , Adams Oshiomhole, smiles to the bank every month with at least N500 million as his security vote.

The source’s disclosure of the security ‘pocket money’ of the former labour leader also tallies with an on-the- record admission by a former lawmaker based in Osogbo, the state capital, concerning the governor of Osun state. The former deputy speaker of the Osun House of Assembly, who is also a former attorney general of the state, Honourable Niyi Owolade, told Legit.ng that the first monthly money Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun state traditionally demands and gets as soon as funds arrive from the federal government is N500 million, which he said is the governor’s share of the controversial security vote.

Owolade, who said that the security vote is unappropriated, unaudited and unaccounted for, said if President Muhammadu Buhari is truly ready to fight corruption he should start by telling Nigerians how the nation’s presidents and governors plunder scarce resources in the name of security votes, and demanded that the president do something radical to address the issue. How Nigerian governors bag minimum of N210b security votes annually Adams Oshiomole He said: He said further that the time is ripe for Nigerians to start the debate on security votes and that it is a humiliating slap on the face for citizens for sitting governors to be taking N500 million unaccounted for monthly from the collective wealth amid a financial crisis which necessitated a federal government bailout package to state governments.
Lawmaker told Buhari “If the president and state governors are really sincere in the fact that money is not forthcoming when people are suffering, the quantum security votes in some states is N500 million, where that would represent 1 quarter of the salaries of the entire workforce. At present, with states’ governors setting aside a minimum of N500 million every month as security vote, by the end of each year a state governor would have succeeded in diverting N6 billion of public funds annually, with citizens of 35 states, excluding the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, losing N210 billion annually to their chief executives according to that estimate, while governors who serve two terms are likely to pocket a whopping N48 billion as security vote during their tenures.
Balarabe Musa, the former governor of the old Kaduna state, told Legit.ng that when he served as governor the amount for security vote was a paltry N100,000, which he said was accounted for. He explained that before the military came to power in 1966, the amount of security funds was voted for, and that the difference between then and now is that the money was accounted for, though not made public. According to him, if the money is approved by the legislators then it is legal and constitutional, and he explained that this was the case when he was governor of the old Kaduna state.
He said security votes as they are practised in present day Nigeria are nothing but fraud and stealing of public funds through unaccountable means, noting that the trend goes to show how bad the Nigerian system is where such an outrageous amount can be wasted by presidents and governors at the expense of the people who elected them. Nelson Ekujumi, the executive director of the Centre for Rights and Grassroots Initiative (CRGI), told Legit.ng that if governors allegedly bag a minimum of N500 million as monthly security votes, one is left to wonder what that of the president would be, since the burden of national security still rests on his shoulders. “Again, it borders on transparency and accountability.
It is evil of some sorts for governors to be diverting this huge fund when they have not been able to pay workers’ salaries; and are asking workers to take pay cut. They are asking workers to suffer more when they themselves are not ready to let go some of their privileges. This is against the essence of democracy. If President Buhari really wants to fight corruption this is where the real issue is.

Dele Adesina, a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN), and a senior partner at Adesina and Co, in an interview that he had read the 1999 constitution over and over again and had yet to see any section authorizing the federal government to dole out money to both president and governors as security votes.
He explained that some years ago, the Nobel laureate Professor Wole Soyinka had lamented that Nigeria was the only country in the world where money is given to presidents or heads of state and governors which is unaccounted for.
According to him, in a situation where everybody is apprehensive because the economy is in trouble and the president is crying “there is no money”, the time has come for Nigerians to demand the stoppage of security vote, since there is no insurrection in the country apart from the northeast and recently in the Niger Delta. He explained that the secrecy surrounding security vote is an appropriate issue for President Buhari’s intervention if he is really an agent of change, and that on no account should any government, either at the federal or state level, spend money that is not allocated.
