With some difficulty I can sort of tolerate the corruption reported from other departments but this one stinks. It is so disgusting!!!

I have discussed this some two years ago with a friend. When the government tabled its first budget in 2017, it showed the office of the president allocated about $5million dollars while the office of the  premier was allocated $5.5 million. I was shocked, but the friend said that foreign travel expenses might be included.

It doesn't matter where they travel. If the budget of the country was $150 million for the whole  year in 2017,  , you can't have these offices taking almost 8% of the budget. It has been a well known Somali trick to allocate money for the phoney 'Wasaarada Madaxtooyada',  A place that has less than 20 employees are given millions. 

The salary of the president must be defined and his employees put within the payroll of the government. Some time ago Farmaajo even claimed that he doesn't know his own salary.

Anyway, we need this audit to continue and the culprits of these corruption and leaders made public , and should be dealt with the full authority of the law. This is not a game.
