On Thursday last week, Finance and Economic Development minister Mthui Ncube presented the 2023 budget in which he allocated $161.7 billion to the Office of the President and Cabinet $114 billion of which will be spent by the Presidency, while $2.7 billion will go towards fuel, oil and lubricant expenses.
