Kaduna gov signs 2025 Appropriation Bill into law 

The governor of Kaduna State, Governor Uba Sani, has assented the 2025 budget of N790 billion into law.

The budget which focused on rural development, earmarked  N551,582,867, 194 for capital expenditure and   N238,856,712,888.86 for recurrent expenditure respectively.

Speaking after signing the budget, the governor commended the Kaduna State House of Assembly for the speedy passage of the 2025 within 10 days of presenting the proposed appropriation bill.

The governor said that the legislature had invited all Ministries, Departments and Agencies to defend their budget proposals and the sessions were robust but at the end of the day, the 2025 budget was passed.

‘’Here in Kaduna State, I can say without fear of contradiction that we have the best House of Assembly in the country. If you look at the members, there are APC and PDP legislators but they have relegated politics and are only focusing on governance. For me, this is highly commendable.

‘’About ten days ago, I was at the House of Assembly chambers where I presented our 2025 budget proposal. All the MDAs were invited and they defended their budgets. I was following the debate and I can say it was one of the most thorough budget defence in the history of Kaduna State.

‘’The legislators passed the appropriation bill within ten days. This is something that I will continue to be proud of. Apart from the budget, and the number of motions, and bills they have sponsored, I can say that this is the best state assembly.

Speaking earlier, the Speaker of the State House of Assembly,  Yusuf  Liman, said that the signing of the 2025 budget by the Governor marked an important milestone in the activities of the Assembly.

According to him, the budget proposal underwent thorough scrutiny before it was passed by the legislators.
