Tinubu Signs 2025 Appropriation Amendment Bill Into Law

The extension gives ministries more time to finish capital projects and fully use appropriated funds, officials said.

  • On Wednesday, President Bola Tinubu signed the Appropriation Amendment Bill into law, extending the 2025 budget implementation period from September 30, 2026, to December 31, 2026.
  • The National Assembly passed the Amendment on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, marking the fourth time the 2025 budget implementation period has been extended since its original December 2025 deadline.
  • Senate Leader Senator Opeyemi Bamidele noted the extension aims to sustain economic activity and support local contractors, allowing Ministries, Departments and Agencies to complete ongoing capital projects.
  • President Tinubu commended the National Assembly for swift passage, describing it as evidence of cooperation between the Executive and the Legislature, while Bamidele clarified the extension complies with the Fiscal Responsibility Act.
  • Despite this fourth adjustment for the 2025 budget, the administration maintains Tinubu's earlier pledge to streamline the budgeting system in Nigeria and eliminate overlapping fiscal cycles.
