The green chamber is being renovated, Buhari may not physically present 2023 Budget to NASS – Lawan

President of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Lawan has hinted that President Muhammadu Buhari may not appear before the joint Senate and House of Representatives session to present the 2023 budget next month.

He made this known while fielding questions from journalists. He said the National Assembly was expecting Mr. President for presentation of the 2023 budget estimates in the first week of October, but the renovation work going on is creating a challenge of where to host Mr. President.

“The Green Chamber of the House of Representatives normally used for such a very important event is also being renovated, calling for urgent action from the leadership of both Chambers on resumption, on how to address the challenge,” he said.
