Presidential economic team meet over 2017 budget funding

The Presidential Economic Management Team led by the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo on Monday met over the funding options for the 2017 budget.

The legislature had on Thursday passed the bill with estimates totalling N7.441tn.

The Senior Special Assistant to the Acting President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Laolu Akande, made this known in a series of messages he posted on his Twitter handle, @Akandeoj, on Monday.

The meeting was held at the Vice President’s Conference Room inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He wrote; “Acting President Osinbajo is presiding over a meeting of the Economic Management Team, reviewing major issues, the 2017 budget and others. In attendance are ministers and the CBN governor.

“Specifically regarding 2017 budget, funding issues tabled today at the EMT meeting, implementation is seamless once appropriation bill is assented (to).”

Akande said that the Presidency had yet to receive the details of the budget as passed by the National Assembly last Thursday.
