This newspaper recalls that education got 29 percent of the total 2024 budget of N437.3billion, but is a little higher on the 2025 proposed budget.

“Most of the capital spending will be in the Social and Economic Sectors to the tune of N461,447,963,240.86.

“Mr. Speaker, Honourable Members, the breakdown above clearly indicates that the priorities of our administration in 2025 are human capital and infrastructural development.

“However, we have pledged to increase access to quality education despite the meager resources,” he explained.

“It is, therefore, with great pleasure and a deep sense of responsibility that I lay before this Honourable House, the 2025 Budget of Kano State, which I tagged the ‘‘Budget of Hope, Human Capital and Economic Development,’’ Yusuf concluded.
