BIG BUDGET UPDATE! Over 50% of Nigeria’s 2024–2025 Projects Are Heading to the North!
The Director-General of the Budget Office, Tanimu Yakubu, just dropped a major clarification: More than half of Nigeria’s capital budget for 2024 and 2025 is allocated to projects in the Northern region
This comes after criticism from some Northern leaders, including former Kano Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso and ex-SGF Babachir Lawal, who claimed the region was being sidelined. But Yakubu says otherwise the North is a TOP priority for federal investment
Key Projects in the North:
✔ Abuja–Kano Expressway Dualisation – Smoother, faster travel!
✔ Sokoto–Badagry Superhighway (₦12.1T!) – A game-changer for West African trade!
✔ Kano–Maradi Rail Line – Boosting cross-border commerce!
✔ New Inland Dry Ports (Funtua & Bauchi) – Easier exports for farmers & businesses!
✔ Upgraded Airports (Kaduna, Maiduguri, Katsina) – Better connectivity!
Yakubu also highlighted massive investments in water basins, power lines, and security to tackle floods, boost farming, and stabilize troubled areas.
