Adamawa: Gov.Fintiri signs N140bn budget for 2021

Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Fintiri, has signed the state’s 2021 budget of over N140 billion into law.

The budget was signed by the governor on Saturday at the Government House in Yola as passed to him earlier on Christmas Eve by the state House of Assembly.

Fintiri stated that the budget the Assembly passed was a little different from what he proposed, with 52 percent, that is N72,817,892,910 earmarked for capital projects.

He also said he proposed such a high percentage for capital projects to deliver physical development because democracy without infrastructure such as roads, schools, hospitals and do on, is democracy taking nobody anywhere.
