Considering the enormous work before the committee on appropriation, its chairman Abdulmumin Jibrin informed all the members that the last session of the budget defence for Friday, 25th February scheduled to commence at 10amnwould start by 8pm. While giving update on the presentation of the 2016 budget so far, Abdulmumin Jibrin, chairman house committee on appropriations confirmed that the budget proposals of the MDAs being presented by all the standing Committee have been harmonised with their Senate counterparts. “Since by tomorrow we will finish taking the reports, we have agreed that we will invite the Minister of Budge and Planning, Minister of Finance, the Accountant General of the Federation, the Director of Budget Office and Central Bank Governor and engage them extensively on the entire budget. “We also have pending issues on the 2015 budget, so they have to come with 2015 budget performance and then we will go into special session,” Jibrin stated. He also directed the Clerk of the Committee to liaise with the office of the Clerk of the House to access the members’ database for easy dispatch of message to all the 360 members and various Committees on the 25th February deadline for final submission and consideration of the MDAs’ budget.
