The senator said, “The deal has been signed and delivered, but not paid, and that’s what brought the inclusion of the amount in the supplementary budget.” DAILY POST reports that President Bola Tinubu had proposed N5.095 billion on a presidential yacht in the 2023 supplementary budget submitted to the National Assembly for approval.
Recall that on Thursday, shortly after the passage of the bill, the Chairman of the Appropriations Committee in the House of Representatives, Abubakar Bichi from Kano State, told newsmen that the presidential yacht included in the budget had been removed by the committee and added to the Student Loans.
