President Muhammadu Buhari has informed  the National Assembly that the 2019 elections will cost 242.4 billion Naira.

This was contained in President Buhari's letter to the Senate on Tuesday which was read on the floor by President of the Senate Bukola Saraki. 

The President informed the Senate that implementing a budget of 9.12 trillion Naira for 2018 will be extremely challenging and therefore does not consider it expedient to increase the 2018 budget to accommodate the funds needed for the 2019 General Elections.
