The 2024 budget presentation comes after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) approved a budget of N27.5 trillion.

The approval was made following the review of the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) which had been previously passed by the National Assembly.

The MTEF set the exchange rate at N700 to $1 and the crude oil price at $73.96 per barrel.

However, FEC revised both MTEF and the Fiscal Policy, setting the exchange rate at N750 to $1 and the crude oil reference price at $77.96 per barrel.

Furthermore, FEC approved an Appropriation Bill for 2024, with an aggregate expenditure of N27.5 trillion, representing an increase of over N1.5 trillion from the previous estimate.
