National assembly in lock down as president buhari presents budget

It seems like you're referring to a recent news event!

Yes, you're correct. On October 8, 2021, the National Assembly in Nigeria was placed on lockdown by the authorities due to a reported breach of security protocols. This was done to ensure the safety of the lawmakers and other officials.

At the same time, President Muhammadu Buhari presented the 2022 budget proposal to the National Assembly. The budget, which is estimated to be around N16.39 trillion, aims to address various developmental challenges facing the country, including infrastructure development, education, healthcare, and security.

The lockdown was reportedly imposed due to concerns about the security of the National Assembly complex, which is located in Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria. The authorities took this measure to prevent any potential security breaches or disruptions during the budget presentation.

It's worth noting that the lockdown was lifted shortly after the budget presentation, and normal activities have since resumed at the National Assembly.
