President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is scheduled to present the 2026 Appropriation Bill to the National Assembly on Friday during a joint sitting of the Senate and the House of Representatives.

According to government sources, priority areas in the 2026 budget will include infrastructure development, national security, education, healthcare and social welfare, as the administration seeks to consolidate ongoing reforms and address citizens’ welfare concerns.
Ahead of the presentation, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy is expected to brief lawmakers on the key assumptions, revenue projections and expenditure framework underpinning the budget.
