He stated this during his presentation of the N47.9 trillion 2025 budget proposal to a joint session of the National Assembly on Wednesday, 17th of December 2024.
Tinubu also said that the exchange rate will improve from approximately N1,700 per dollar to N1,500. This is an ambitious but necessary budget to secure our future.
The Budget projects inflation will decline from the current rate of 34.6 per cent to 15 per cent next year, while the exchange rate will improve from approximately 1,700 naira per US dollar to 1,500 naira, and a base crude oil production assumption of 2.06 million barrels per day,” Tinubu said.
