Nigerian Senate December 19 2025: Budget Bill, Oil Nominees, Tinubu Address

On Friday, December 19, 2025, the Nigerian Senate scheduled three major items of business: a bill to correct and re-enact the 2024 national budget, the screening of nominees to head Nigeria's two key petroleum regulatory bodies, and a joint session with the House of Representatives to receive President Tinubu's 2026 Appropriation Bill presentation. These items touch directly on how public money is managed and who oversees Nigeria's oil and gas sector.
