Senate President Bukola Saraki was at the state house Abuja yesterday
where he had a closed door meeting with President Buhari. Speaking with
state house correspondents after his meeting, Saraki disclosed that the
2017 budget which was approved by the Federal Executive Council on
Wednesday November 30th, will be presented to a joint session of the
National Assembly within the next 10 days.
"Well, I haven’t seen the details, not until the president lays it. I am
sure within the next 10 days, it will be presented. We are ready. Once
the document comes to us, we are ready. I think this time around, a lot
of work has taken place behind the scene. There is a lot of more
collaboration and you will see the result of that in the time frame it
will take after the president will have presented it.”he said
