The Federal Government has directed all Ministries, Departments and Agencies to submit their Establishment Acts alongside their 2027 personnel budget proposals. The directive is contained in the 2027 Personnel Costs Budget Call circular dated September 4, 2026, signed by Budget Office of the Federation Director-General Tanimu Yakubu. The circular warned that failure to provide the required Establishment Act may lead to the rejection of an agency's budget proposal. The requirement forms part of tighter controls introduced for the preparation of the 2027 personnel budget.
