The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, said on Tuesday that only this October is set aside for all government agencies to defend their 2020 budget

In his remarks during the presentation of the 2020 budget by President Muhammadu Buhari, Mr Lawan said the National Assembly committees are ready to receive the ministers and other heads of government agencies for the defence of their budget estimates.

“In this regard, our Committees will be expected to conclude their work on budget defence within October, this year. This, he said, was clearly demonstrated last week, when the Assembly received, processed and passed the request of Mr. President on the 2020-2022 Medium Term Expenditure Framework and Fiscal Strategy Paper .

“It is imperative, therefore, that our revenue generating agencies be more alive to their responsibilities, more innovative and focused on how to meet their revenue targets.”
