Nigeria's Senate approved a N2.285 trillion budget for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) for 2026, following the House of Representatives' earlier approval of a slightly higher N2.3 trillion budget. The Senate raised questions about the absence of a clear revenue plan in the budget, which could affect funding execution for Abuja's infrastructure and social services. The differing budget amounts between the two chambers highlight the need for reconciliation before the budget is finalized.
