This proposal, disclosed by the Commissioner for Economic Planning, Sonny Ekedayen, is smaller than the N1.72 trillion budget approved for 2026.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The state aims to manage its finances by avoiding the pattern of funding large portions of the budget from savings, which was done in 2026. The shift toward capital expenditure indicates a strategic priority on completing existing projects and starting new ones.
