He added that his reason for expeditiously signing the Budget was to give the necessary institutions enough time to plan for the elections and the transition into a new administration.
Those who witnessed the signing of the budget include Senate President Ahmad Lawan and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila.
The President thanked the Senate President, the Speaker, and all the leaders and members of the National Assembly for the quick consideration and passage of the Appropriation Bill.
