NASS To Pass 2016 Budget March 17th


Joint Session of Lawmakers
The National Assembly on Wednesday stated that it will pass the 2016 Budget on Thursday, March 17.
Recall that the passage of the Budget was postponed earlier by the National Assembly due to discrepancies inherent in the N6.08 trillion proposed Budget.

Addressing a joint press conference jointly, chairmen of the Senate and House of Representatives Committee on Appropriation, Senator Danjuma Goje and Hon. Jibrin Abdulmumin, respectively, said that they will lay their reports at both chambers on Wednesday, March 16, after which it will be considered and passed the next day.
