The Secretary, Reseach and Information, (SR&I), of the National Assembly, Dr. Ali Barde Umoru, has debunked the purported fake news credited to him, alleging that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will on Wednesday, present the 2025 budget to the joint session of the National Assembly.

The SR&I described as false, the said news  circulating on both social and mainstream media, and other outlets.

He therefore urged members of the public to disregard such information.

The secretary advised that any official enquiry and clarification should follow the official communication channels of the National Assembly.

He said that the National Assembly was yet to approve the 2024-2026 Medium Term Expenditure Framework, MTEF and Fiscal Strategy Paper, forwarded to both chambers of the National Assembly by Mr. President, before the official presentation of the 2025 budget.

In view of the above, the SR&I warns peddlers of such information to desist forthwith from using his office to mislead members of the public .
