The N146.7 billion proposed budget is relatively higher than the 2021 budget with N5 billion.

He highlighted achievements in the ongoing Jalingo flyover and road dualization, including the Lacheke – Pantisawa roads construction, as well as achievements in the health, agriculture, education sectors, and others.
The governor promised that the government will speed up the completion of the ongoing projects to ensure the efficiency of the proposed 2022 budget.
Governor Ishaku challenged all state Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) step up the remittance of Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) and block all leakages.
