Hon. Paschal Agbodike, representing Ihiala Federal Constituency of Anambra State, has described the 2025 Appropriation Bill as a transformative step toward reviving Nigeria’s economy.
Speaking to journalists on Wednesday, after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu presented the proposed budget to a joint session of the National Assembly, Agbodike commended the effort, calling it the “Budget of Economic Transformation.”
