Security operatives have surrounded the National Assembly Complex ahead of President Bola Tinubu’s presentation of the 2025 Appropriation Bill to a joint session of the Senate and House of Representatives today.

Armed policemen were stationed at key entry points, including the Main Gate (MOPOL), Villa Gate, and Annex Gates.

Only those with proper accreditation were granted access, though the accreditation process remained smooth and incident-free despite the tense atmosphere.

The usually lively complex was unusually quiet, with human and vehicular movement significantly restricted.

The foyer and corridors, typically bustling with activity, were largely deserted as preparations were made for the president’s arrival.

The president is expected to present 2025 budgetary estimates of N47.96 trillion to the National Assembly.

Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Atiku Bagudu, had said the 2025 budget framework was based on oil price benchmark of $75 per barrel, oil production capacity of 2.06 million barrels per day and an exchange rate of one N1,400 to a dollar.
