Recall that last week, the President Muhammadu Buhari, presented the 2020 appropriation bill before a joint session of the National Assembly. According to the President, the revenue generation estimated to fund the 2020 national budget is N8.155 trillion.

However, the 2020 budget was set at N9.79 trillion, indicating a deficit of about N1.5 trillion. What this means is that the Federal Government will borrow in order to balance up the budget.
