As the National Assembly reconvenes today, Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele has called on President Bola Tinubu to submit the 2025 budget along with the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and Fiscal Strategy Paper. Bamidele emphasized the importance of the MTEF, noting that it must be in place before the 2025 Appropriation Bill can be considered.
Additionally, both the Senate and House of Representatives will address several critical issues, including the ongoing 1999 Constitution review, tackling oil theft, and legislative actions on electoral reforms. The National Assembly is also committed to maintaining the January-December budget cycle and intensifying efforts to address economic challenges, insecurity, and other national concerns.
