Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has unveiled a proposed N490.74 billion budget for the 2027 fiscal year, describing it as the financial blueprint that would consolidate the gains of his first term while accelerating the state's drive towards sustained economic growth, prosperity, and long-term development. The appropriation bill, christened 'Budget of Sustained Progress and Prosperity,' was presented to the Ekiti State House of Assembly in Ado-Ekiti in accordance with Section 124(4) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended). The governor said the 2027 proposal marked the beginning of another phase in his administration's development agenda, crafted to deepen ongoing reforms, expand critical infrastructure, stimulate economic activities, and improve the welfare of the people. He explained that the budget was also deliberately aligned with the state's development plan.
