2024 Budget: Tinubu Submitted Flash Drive Containing Budget Details – Lawmaker

Alhassan Doguwa, the lawmaker representing Doguwa/Tundun Wada federal constituency in Kano, has countered claims that President Bola Tinubu presented an empty budget to the national assembly.

VerseNews reports that Doguwa stated that before the president presented the budget, he had submitted a flash drive containing soft copies of the budget.

“What people don’t know is that President Tinubu had since submitted a flash drive of the whole budget before his presentation to the joint chambers,” Doguwa revealed.

He emphasized that the national assembly did not receive an empty budget box and called the claim “baseless” and “unfounded.”

Doguwa clarified that President Tinubu had submitted a flash drive with the 2024 budget as a soft copy, and a single hard copy was presented during the joint session.

The lawmaker urged stopping the deliberate misrepresentation of facts regarding the budget presentation exercise by the presidency.

“Stop the misrepresentation of facts, we did not receive empty 2024 budget boxes from President Tinubu,” he said.
