The President, who appreciated the National Assembly for the effective and detailed attention before the passage, said the budget aptly captured some of the visions of the administration, and all efforts will be poured in to ensure effective implementation.

“We have directed all the Ministries, Departments and Agencies to follow what is in the budget so that we can get the National Assembly to easily support the next budget. We can tell them what we have received, and how it was spent.

“We are always ready to make the balance sheet available for all Nigerians and the National Assembly. We have nothing to hide,” he said.

President Buhari, in a statement issued by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, said the administration had given more attention to agriculture in order to diversify and strengthen the economy.
