2019 Budget: Senate To Pass Appropriation Next Week Tuesday – Saraki

Senate President Bukola Saraki has said that the 2019 budget will be passed on Tuesday, April 30th.
Saraki who announced this on today, charged the National Assembly secretariat to ensure that Senators get copies of the bill ahead of passage.
Consideration of the report by the Committee on Appropriations was slated on the order paper for today but the Senate could not consider the item.
Saraki explained that the need for all lawmakers to be fortified with details of the budget informed the postponement.
The committee had last week Wednesday laid its report on the 2019 Appropriation Bill.
The 8.83 trillion naira budget was presented to a joint session of the National Assembly by President Muhammadu Buhari on 19th, December 2018.
