President Muhammad Buhari had on the 7th October 2021, presented the budget estimates to the joint session of the National Assembly.
The version of the budget passed by the Senate contained estimates of N17,126,873,917,692, as against the N16,391,023,917,692 proposed by President Buhari in October.
This is coming barely one week after the Senate failed to pass the budget as promised.
