Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State on Thursday presented an N861billion budget proposal for the 2026 fiscal year to the State House of Assembly, with the title “budget of stability and growth.”
The proposal features an unprecedented allocation toward capital expenditure, which the governor stated is a direct commitment to the Six-Point Rescue Agenda of his administration, aimed at infrastructure renewal, security, and economic recovery in the banditry-affected state.
The 2026 Budget of Stability and Growth represents the next chapter in this journey. It is not merely a financial plan; it is a political commitment to entrench stability in governance and accelerate the growth our citizens yearn for. Our 2026 recurrent expenditure proposal of 17 of the proposed budget, demonstrates fiscal discipline and a responsible approach to public spending
Governor Lawal’s administration was elected on a platform centered on rescue, reform, and revival. The 2026 budget according to some political stakeholders, is a strategic response to these crises, aiming to stabilize governance and accelerate growth.
