Why We Passed N2.17trn Supplementary Budget In Two Days – Senate

Following criticisms that followed the quick passage of the supplementary budget on Thursday, the Senate has explained that the fast-tracked passage of the bill was due to the poor state of the economy caused by rising cost of food due to fuel subsidy removal.

This explanation was made on Saturday by the Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Appropriation, Senator Ali Ndume in Abuja.
