Barring any change, President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to present the 2023 appropriation to the National Assembly in September.
Director General, Budget Office of the Federation, Ben Akabueze, disclosed this in Abuja at training on budget preparation using the Government Integrated Financial Management Information System.
Akabueze said government under Buhari is determined to ensure consistent and timely preparation, submission and approval of annual budgets as part of its Public Financial Management reforms.
He lamented that MDAs do not study the Budget Call Circular in detail and as such make mistakes that should ordinarily be avoided if they had complied with the relevant sections of the Budget Circular.
