Sokoto State Governor Ahmed Aliyu has declared that state governments across Nigeria are now enjoying improved financial capacity under the administration of President Bola Tinubu, enabling them to implement critical development projects, sustain social interventions and respond more effectively to the needs of citizens.
The governor made the declaration in Bodinga Local Government Area of Sokoto State while flagging off the sale of essential food commodities at subsidised prices, a government initiative targeted at cushioning the economic burden on rural dwellers and junior civil servants.
Governor Aliyu said the improved financial position of states under the Tinubu administration had translated into tangible development across Sokoto State, stressing that the Federal Government’s increased funding had strengthened the capacity of his administration to execute projects and programmes with direct impact on the people.
“All the developmental projects we are executing in the state are as a result of the adequate funding we are receiving from the Federal Government,” Aliyu said.
