 Meanwhile, the Minister of the Economy, Walir Doong, has said that to finance Nigeria's 28.8 trillion Naira budget, the federal government will eliminate the reliance on ways and means, the Minister of Finance and Co-ordinating. The minister said the federal government would rather focus on bolstering revenue and driving economic growth. President Balotinbu had signed into law the 2024 Appropriation Bill of 28.78 trillion Naira in the presence of the President of the Senate, Senator Gotswila Papu, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajadine Abbas. We will make sure that, even if there is need, that we also undertake joint monitoring of the implementation of the budget to ensure that, yes, nobody can tell us one thing in the green chambers and nothing in the red chambers, we will make sure that we monitor very well. And he has also assured us that he has passed the matching orders to them, ours is to make sure that we do our job, over side, over side, over side. Landmark achievement we had was also approving the securitization of the ways and means which has effectively brought to an end these controversial means and ways of borrowing money. And he has assured Nigeria that this will be the last of this kind of ugly. We are spending close to 11 trillion in capital expenditure, which is about 39 percent of the budget itself. I think this is almost the first in a very long time in our history. Equally, Mr. President said it, today one of the things that gave him pleasure was that this budget even provided 100 billion to provide school feeding for children. We're relying less on borrowing and more on revenue. And I think we have to take the two together. We are very optimistic that not only will this budget be funded adequately, but it will be funded on a timely basis as well. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
