Exclusive report reaching Post-Nigeria, revealed that the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, is expected to sign the 2017 budget, despite alleged report that the Aso Cabals are technically delaying it, to await President Muhammadu Buhari’s arrival.
A source who spoke to Post-Nigeria on Friday evening, disclosed that Osinbajo had made up his mind to sign the budget next week, because it has been long overdue.
“Osinbajo would rather resign, than to see the Cabals sit on the budget, all in the name of reconciling figures”, the source said.
Recall, that Buhari has been on a medical leave in Britain, since May 7, and handed over power to his Vice, Yemi Osinbajo, in his absence.
“The 2017 Appropriations Bill… will be signed into law early next week”, said Yakubu Dogara, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, at an event to mark two years since the 8th Parliament was convened, after elections in 2015.
Two Presidency sources, who did not want to be named, also said the budget would be signed next week.
A government official last week, said the Presidency and Lawmakers were still in talks over the spending plan.
Recall also, that last year’s budget, passed in May 2016, was delayed for months, due to disagreements between Lawmakers and the Presidency, over spending plans that cut the supply of government money, and deepened the economic crisis.
