There are insinuations from some quarters that the president rejected the passed budget but Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters, Ita Enang says President Muhammadu Buhari did not reject the 2016 budget as being speculated.
He says the media reports alleging that the budget had been rejected were untrue.
The Senator said what the President did before travelling to China was to send the budget to ministries in order to get feedbacks that would inform his assent.
Enang explained the exercise was conducted on Friday and it is ongoing by different ministers and ministries.
