“We take this very seriously because we have established a trend and we want to keep the trend of processing the budget and pass it before the end of December. Then Mr President, on the side of the Executive, assents to it before the end of December as well.

“This is, of course, very important to us. For us, this is our last MTEF/FSP, because our tenure will come to an end on 11th June, 2023.

“We will be as committed as we have ever been and probably we will be more committed to ensure that we work with you to process the MTEF/FSP and the budget as well so that we continue with the trend that we intend to leave as a legacy for the 10th session of the National Assembly by the Grace of God.

“So that the 10th National Assembly will have something to build on and serve as the bridge between the ninth and the tenth National Assembly.

“The partnership between the two arms of government on the budget particularly, has been very rewarding.

“This year, we expect the budget estimates to be presented between the last week of September and the first week of October,” Lawan said.

Speaking in a similar vein, Hon. Wase who stood in for the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila expressed the readiness of the House to work together and synergise with relevant stakeholders with a view to ensuring that “we give the best for our country and we shall do that with the utmost sense of duty and with all patriotism.

“And by the Grace of God, I believe that the relationship that has been established in the past will continue to wax stronger and stronger for the benefit of our nation.”

The Finance minister said the views of the lawmakers would be appreciated on the proposals which would also be scrutinised by the Federal Executive Council(FEC) on Wednesday.
