Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has signed the 2017 appropriation bill into law.

Prof Osinbajo signed the budget at about 4:40 p.m. on Monday inside his conference room in the presence of the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari; Senate President, Bukola Saraki, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, Ministers and other top government officials with the final figure of N 7.44 trillion presented by the National Assembly.

The acting president, who described the budget signing as a milestone in the implementation of the economic and growth plan programme put in place by Mr. Buhari in April, also noted that it had fewer errors than that of last year. “There were far few cases of acrimony unlike in the past. There is no doubt at all that our democracy is maturing very well,” Osinbajo noted.
