On Tuesday, an online platform reported that a review of the Zamfara State budget performance document has shown that the state budgeted N19.3 billion to purchase kitchen and canteen equipment for the 2024 fiscal year.

But, in a response to the report during a press briefing in Gusau, the capital of Zamfara State, the state’s Commissioner for Budget and Planning, Mallam Abdulmalik Gajam, expressed disappointment in what he called a misleading report.

Mallam Gajam provided details of the breakdown of the N19.3 billion budgeted for projects under the Ministry of Education. “The news platform that peddled the fake news pushed half-baked statistics, omitting the vital information from the complete budget performance document.”

Gajam said: “The breakdown of 19.3 billion was budgeted under the Ministry of Education, and it is under the category of capital expenditure.

 

“The name canteen & kitchen is a fixed asset purchase the coded name of a particular category of multiple expenditures which contain a provision on the agile program, construction of zonal primary schools, provision of smart primary school in gusau, procurement of kitchen utensil for all government school for 40 million, construction of teachers training center and creation of teachers development funding scheme.

“All this put together is what constituted 19.3 billion.”

The commissioner further stressed that Governor Dauda Lawal-led administration came to reduce the abuse of public funds and block leakages. “We would not be found wanting in relation to such mismanagement and irresponsibility.”
