President Bola Tinubu forwards the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) statutory budget proposal for 2026 to Nigeria’s House of Representatives for consideration and passage. Both outlets report that the proposal is formally submitted to the legislature as part of the budget process.
One source notes the action as the sending of the “2026 statutory budget proposal” for review and approval by lawmakers. The second source adds additional procedural detail, saying the proposal is contained in a letter dated August 20, 2026, addressed to the Speaker of the House, Rep. Tajudeen Abbas, and that the National Assembly receives the letter on September 24. The reports focus on the submission step, rather than the figures in the proposal or any immediate reaction from lawmakers.
