Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umar Radda, has called upon all Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to ensure the prompt and efficient execution of projects and programmes outlined in the 2027 Appropriation Law. After signing the N828.58 billion 2027 budget into law, Radda emphasized the significance of the MDAs' role in transforming the government's plans into tangible development for the people of Katsina.
The 2027 budget was crafted through a three-stage process that involved citizen consultations, thorough scrutiny by state departments, and approval by the state House of Assembly. Radda urged the implementing agencies to prioritize their responsibilities, stating that the early signing of the budget marked a step forward in improving the state's budgetary process, which had previously been sluggish.
The state House of Assembly had approved a total budget of N828,578,844,091.48 for the 2027 fiscal year, with N190,726,262,820.44 allocated for recurrent expenditure and N637,852,581,271.03 for capital expenditure. Speaker Nasiru Yahaya Daura expressed the Assembly's commitment to supporting the APC-led administration in delivering development benefits to Katsina residents.
