Aiyedatiw, while presenting the budget tagged “Budget of Economic Resilience” to the lawmakers during a plenary sitting presided over by the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon Olamide Oladiji, said N212,014 billion was budgeted for capital expenditure and N172,518 billion for recurrent expenditure.

The 2024 budget proposal is higher than that of the total projected budget outlay for the 2023 fiscal year which was N272.7 billion.

Aiyedatiwa disclosed that the 2024 budget was prepared based on the inputs garnered during the Town Hall meetings with various stakeholders across the state, noting that the bugged was tailored towards achieving the “Redeemed”  agenda of his administration which is also in tandem with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

According to him, “the current national and global economic realities point to the reason why we must consciously and programmatically re-arrange our fiscal priorities to target the growth drivers of our economy to quickly fix and reflate the economy, to keep it afloat.”
