Buhari signs 2021 appropriation bill into law

The president, Muhammadu Buhari has signed the 2021 appropriation bill into law.

The signing ceremony held briefly today inside the president’s office at the presidential villa, Abuja.

The national assembly last Monday passed the 2021 appropriation bill, raising the total estimates from the proposed N13.08tn to N13.58tn, an increase of over N500bn.

The present regime has again maintained the country’s budget to January to December cycle, as it did with the 2020 budget when the president signed the document into law on December 17, 2019.
