President Buhari Signs Nigeria 2022 Budget
Onyxnewsng reports that President Muhammadu Buhari has on Thursday signed Nigeria’s 2022 budget into law. He signed the budget at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
Few weeks earlier, the Senate and House of Representatives passed the bill presented by the president.
With the president’s assent, the bill has become law and the implementation is expected to commence in January for the 2022 fiscal year.
The lawmakers had approved a total expenditure of N17.1 trillion against the N16.3 trillion proposed by the president in October. Over N700 billion was added to the proposed appropriation.
The National Assembly also increased the Oil Benchmark Price from $57 to $62. The increase, they said, was to reflect the current market values of the oil barrel in the international market. Nigeria’s daily oil production rate was pegged at 1.86 million per barrel.
