Jonathan signs 2014 budget into law

President Goodluck Jonathan, on Friday, signed the 2014 budget into law “after going through the statutory legislative processes.”

The signing of the budget follows far-reaching deliberations and agreements made so far by both the executive and legislature on the over-delayed budget.

President Jonathan had accused the law makers of again distorting the N4.642 trillion Bill he sent to them for appropriation, including raising the estimated total spend for the year by some N53 billion to N4.695 trillion.
