Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has revealed that the National Assembly would release to the public, details of the 2016 budget.
The development was communicated via a statement signed by Special Assistant to the President of the Senate on Social Media, Bamikole Omishore.
Saraki said it became important to release the 2016 budget details, in order to dissuade Nigerians from relying on the ‘falsehood’ they may get from the media.
“By the time we come into the 2016 budget, at the end of the year, it will be clearer because people just see one item line.”
“But that is not going to happen now; you will see what goes to the Senate and what goes to the House of Representatives.
“You are going to see what goes to the management, what goes to the Legislative Institute and we are going to make all these open and clear.
“That is part of the openness we promised,” Saraki said in the statement.
