The National Assembly Management has debunked the reports going round that, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is presenting the 2025 Budget proposal to the joint sitting of the National Assembly on Wednesday, November 27th, 2024.
Earlier today, some newspapers reported that Nigeria’s leader will present the 2025 budget on Wednesday at the national assembly.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Director Information, Audu Bullah Biallah, on behalf of the Secretary Research and Information.
According to the statement, the National Assembly is yet to approve the 2024-2026 Medium Term Expenditure Framework and Fiscal Strategy Paper (MTEF&FSP) forwarded to both chambers of the national assembly by the President, before the official presentation of the 2025 budget.
“The attention of the Secretary, Research and Information, (SRI), National Assembly, Dr. Ali Barde Umoru has been drawn to the purported fake news credited to him, alleging that His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will tomorrow Wednesday present the 2925 budget to the join session of the National Assembly.
