President Bola Tinubu says Nigerians must build a strong,
united and indivisible country.
In a post on X on Saturday, Tinubu said while presenting the
proposed 2025 budget of N49.7 trillion to the national assembly on December 18,
he told the lawmakers that his administration is building a Nigeria “where
peace reigns, opportunities abound, and every citizen can dream, work, and
thrive in safety”.
The president said his ‘Budget of Restoration: Securing
Peace, Rebuilding Prosperity’ is for the growth and progress of the country.
“We have to move forward, not as individuals but as one
united nation, determined to rewrite our story for the generations to come,”
Tinubu wrote.
During the presentation of the Appropriation Bill, last
month, Tinubu said the proposed budget reinforces his administration’s roadmap
to secure peace, prosperity, and hope for a greater future for Nigeria.
“The time for lamentation is over. This is a time to act. A
time to support and promote greater investment in the private sector. A time
for every Nigerian to look hopefully towards a brighter future because a new
day has dawned for us as a nation,” the president said.
“Together, we have embarked on a journey of transformation
and reform, and while the road has not been easy, the progress we have made is
undeniable.”
On December 19, the appropriation bill scaled the second
reading at the senate and house of representatives.
On January 6, heads of ministries, departments, and agencies
(MDAs) began defending their budget estimates before the relevant committees of
the national assembly.
The national assembly is expected to pass the budget by the
end of January.
