Nigeria’s Senate President Bukola Saraki has stated that details of the National Assembly’s 2016 budget will be made public.
In a statement by his Special Assistant on Social Media, Mr. Bamikole Omishore, Saraki said Nigerians would not have to rely on ‘’falsehood they received from some online media” from next year.
“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.
“..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.”
He added that the development was in fulfillment of his inaugural promise and part of efforts to satisfy the curiosity of some Nigerians, who had been clamouring that the budget should be made public.
