Ministers and Heads of Government Agencies have been temporarily barred from travelling outside the country by President Muhammadu Buhari.

A press statement from the Office of Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Friday evening said the order is to enable Honourable Ministers personally lead the process of Budget defence at the National Assembly.

According to the statement signed by Willie Bassey, Director, Information, OSGF, the suspension of such travels will enable Functionaries and Agencies of the Executive Arm to provide the required cooperation with the Legislature in order to ensure timely passage of the Appropriation Bill.

“Honourable Ministers who have already secured approval to travel are by this directive, required to revalidate such approvals with Mr. President after confirming the Schedule of Appearances with the relevant Committees of the National Assembly. 

“Furthermore, all Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) have been directed to liaise with the relevant committees of the National Assembly for their Schedules of Budget defence.
