Gov. Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State says increased revenue from President Bola Tinubu’s reforms has enabled his administration to execute N90 billion worth of infrastructure projects without borrowing from banks.
Sule disclosed this at the Government House, Lafia, when he received the Renewed Hope Ambassadors Presidential Media Team, led by Mr Bayo Onanuga, the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Strategy.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the team arrived in Lafia, the state capital, on Saturday to inspect completed and ongoing Federal Government and state infrastructure projects across the state.
The governor said the removal of fuel subsidy and other reforms introduced by the Tinubu administration had substantially increased the resources available to state governments for infrastructure and development.
He explained that Nasarawa’s monthly allocation, previously fluctuating between N3.8 billion and N4.5 billion, had risen to an average of N14 billion to N16 billion.
