Both the House of Representatives and the Senate gave expeditious approval for the $2.2bn – N1.767tn – loan request barely 48 hours after President Tinubu made the request.
The approval followed the presentation of a report by the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Local and Foreign Debts, Aliyu Wamakko (APC, Sokoto North), during plenary.
