Here are key highlights of its education sector allocation.
Total budgetary allocation to the education sector is N66.09bn with capital expenditure at 68% (45.15bn) and recurrent expenditure at 32% (N20.93bn). #EducationFund Image
There is a 43.7% increase in the 2020 capital expenditure component of the budget over that of 2019. This shows that the Kaduna State government is investing in its people and this is commendable. #EducationFund Image

The overhead cost component has the Kaduna State scholarship board with the highest allocation of 4.72bn (67.1%) with the cost of scholarship constituting more than 90%. The Ministry of Education has N1.09bn and Kaduna State University (KASU) has N450m. Image

Our analysis reveals that 238 projects valued above N5 billion each, with a cumulative value of N2.29 trillion, were inserted with little to no justification.

984 projects worth N1.71 trillion and 1,119 projects within the range of N500 million to N1 billion, totaling N641.38 billion, were indiscriminately inserted.

#2025FGBudget #AskQuestions
A closer look shows that 3,573 projects worth N653.19 billion are assigned directly to federal constituencies and 1,972 projects worth N444.04 billion to senatorial districts.

📢 Dear Nigerians,

The Federal Government has failed to publish a detailed revenue breakdown for the 2025 budget. This is WRONG!

N54.9 trillion was signed into law by President @officialABAT, but a breakdown of where the money will come from is no where to be found.

While references have been made to certain revenue sources, no comprehensive data has been released to allow for independent scrutiny.

#2025FGBudget #AskQuestions
Recall that the Presidency initially submitted a proposed expenditure of N47.9 trillion, which President @officialABAT later revised to N54.2 trillion through a presidential letter citing increased revenue expectations. The @nassnigeria further increased this figure to N54.9 trillion, without publishing any accompanying macroeconomic or fiscal analysis to justify the additions.

🗣️ Dear Nigerians,

We have observed that the 2025 FG proposed budget submitted to the @nassnigeria for review and approval and published on the Budget Office website omits funding for the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road as well as the budget breakdown of some MDAs, commissions, and councils, such as the National Judicial Council (N341.63 billion) and TETFUND (N940.5 billion).

The 2025 Proposed Budget also excluded the budgets of over 60 government-owned enterprises (GOEs), including the Nigeria Ports Authority, Nigeria Customs Service, and the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA). #AskQuestions
It is worth noting that President @officialABAT’s recent pronouncement regarding the retirement package of military generals, which includes the provision of a bulletproof SUV, fully paid foreign medical treatment, $20,000 as estacode for medical trips, and payments for domestic help, contradicts his previous commitments to reduce the cost of governance and welfare packages to top-ranked public officials and civil servants. #GetInvolved

Hello Nigerians,

According to the 2023 Fiscal Accounts Report of the Accountant General of the Federation, Nigeria's Federal Government made a revenue of N5.99tn, spent N19.50tn, and recorded a deficit of N13.50tn—225% of the total revenue.

What does this mean? The government spent more than three times what it earned in revenue

🗣️🗣️ It is worrisome that the Federal Government is drafting a 2024 Supplementary Budget to be implemented alongside the 2023 Approved Budget, 2023 Supplementary Budget, and 2024 Approved Budget.

FOUR budgets at once—an unprecedented anomaly.

Recall that the 2023 Approved Budget of N21.83 trillion, signed into law by President @MBuhari in January 2023, was designed to run for 12 calendar months from January to December, as is the practice globally.
In addition, while the 2024 Appropriation Bill was being drafted, the 2023 Supplementary Budget of N2.17 trillion was passed by the National Assembly and assented to by President @officialABAT barely two months before the end of the 2023 fiscal year.
