The federal government is looking to generate N298.4 billion in revenue from selling off certain government assets in 2024.
This is contained in a breakdown document of the 2024 appropriation bill.
The item listed as “Financing Item” was in the sectoral allocation details released by the Chairman, Senate Committee on Appropriations, Solomon Adeola, and seen by Nairametrics.
The move is believed to be an attempt to finance public debts as well as reduce the fiscal burden on the part of the federal government.
The document also indicated that the government expects to generate N2.8 trillion from government-owned enterprises as a net surplus in the 2024 fiscal year.
The 2024 budget proposal of N27.5 trillion was presented to the National Assembly by President Bola Tinubu last Wednesday.
The budget christened “Budget of Renewed Hope” contains national revenue estimated at N18.32 trillion with a deficit of N9.18 trillion.
Moreover, the government projects a revenue growth of 3.76% in the 2024 fiscal year.
