NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TO PRIORITIZE BUDGET, MINIMUM WAGE UPON RESUMPTION.

Leader of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Lawan, says the National Assembly will prioritize the consideration of the 2019 budget and the passage of minimum wage bill upon resumption.

Lawan, who made this known in an interview with newsmen in Abuja, said the lawmakers would not hesitate in attending to the bills.

He said that though they would be constrained by time in view of preparations for the 2019 general elections, they would work extensively on the bills within the available time.
