The Nigeria's President, Muhammadu Buhari has written to the National Assembly (NASS), informing the two chambers of his intention to present the Appropriation Bill for the country's 2018 Budget come Tuesday, 7th November 2017.
In a letter read on the floor of the House of Reps on Thursday, 2nd November 2017, the president said he would present the budget at a joint session by 2 p.m Nigerian time.
Meanwhile a cross-section of Nigerian citizens has reacted over the planned national exercise. In some quarters, some were of the notion that the proposed presentation of the Appropriation Bill was coming at a late hour in spite of all the drums hinted by a group of concerned Nigerians towards ensuring that the bill is tendered early enough.
Some opined that to get it right, the country's appropriation bill was supposed to be presented at most by July of every fiscal year to enable the NASS deliberate aptly over the bill before passing it into a budget.
