President Bola Tinubu has received copies of the United Nations’ proposed budget for 2027, presented by Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Jimoh Ibrahim, at the State House in Abuja.
Ibrahim, who chairs the UN committee responsible for budgetary and administrative matters, presented the seven-volume document to the Nigerian leader.
He explained that the proposal remains subject to scrutiny and approval by UN member states but said presenting it to President Tinubu was significant.
The proposed budget is expected to undergo the organisation’s established review and approval processes before it can be adopted.
The presentation highlights Nigeria’s involvement in the UN’s budgetary and administrative affairs, with Ibrahim playing a key role in the committee responsible for overseeing the process.
Further details, including the proposed budget’s total value and its major spending priorities, were not provided in the information released about the presentation.
