President Buhari Signs Nigeria’s $36 Billion 2021 Budget Into Law

President Buhari Signs Nigeria’s $36 Billion 2021 Budget Into Law
Mr. Buhari, President of Nigeria

The boss man signs the appropriation bill into law. Yes, President Buhari has signed the 2021 Nigerian budget of N13.588 trillion (about $36 billion) into law.  The budget estimate increased by N505.61 billion from the initial N13.082 billion presented to the National Assembly in October.

Now, let us execute it 100%. Still very low at N13.588 trillion but better than last year’s. Nigeria needs great companies for the promise of having great budgets. It has to happen because the promises of politicians are the taxes of companies (and citizens).
