President Bola Tinubu signs the Appropriation (Amendment) (No. 4) Bill, 2025, amending Nigeria’s 2025 budget. The amendment extends the implementation timeline from September 30, 2026 to December 31, 2026, according to the outlets.
The legislation follows passage by Nigeria’s National Assembly, with both the Senate and the House of Representatives approving the amendment before Tinubu’s assent. Vanguard and The Punch describe the same core change to the budget’s implementation period, but provide limited additional detail on the broader fiscal reasons for the extension or any specific affected programmes.
Overall, the reports focus on the signing and the revised end date for executing the 2025 budget, presenting the event as a formal legal adjustment after parliamentary approval.
