Additionally, N5.49 billion has been proposed for the annual maintenance of the Presidential Villa.

These details were revealed in the 2025 Appropriation Bill, released by the Budget Office of the Federation on Thursday.

According to PUNCH Online, President Bola Tinubu presented the budget, titled “Budget of Restoration: Securing Peace, Rebuilding Prosperity,” to a joint session of the National Assembly on Wednesday.

The budget outlines an ambitious N49.70 trillion spending plan, with a focus on defence, infrastructure, and human capital development. The proposed budget also includes a deficit of N13.39 trillion, to be financed through borrowing.

While addressing the National Assembly, President Tinubu emphasized his administration’s dedication to strengthening national security and rebuilding infrastructure.

In the appropriation bill, the State House, which serves as the administrative center for the executive arm, detailed its planned expenses. N164 million will go toward purchasing tyres for bulletproof vehicles, jeeps, platform trucks, and other operational vehicles.

Furthermore, N1.1 billion was allocated for replacing SUVs, while N3.66 billion is earmarked for the purchase of operational vehicles for the State House.

The document also specifies that N127.86 million will be spent on acquiring SUVs for the President and Vice President, under the office of the President.
