FG: WE'RE REVIEWING 2017 BUDGET

The Federal Government yesterday said it was analysing and reviewing the 2017 Appropriation Bill passed penultimate Thursday.

Budget and National Planning Minister, Udoma Udoma said this while addressing State House correspondents after the Federal Executive Council meeting chaired by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo.

The acting president had last Friday received details of the budget from the National Assembly.

The minister said recommendations would be made after the review.

Udoma, however, assured that the executive was working fast in lieu of the need to sign the fiscal document as soon as possible.
