He stated that the budget was created to ensure fiscal discipline and accountability in the management of public resources while consolidating the accomplishments of his administration in infrastructure development, human capital advancement, security, and economic growth.

Fubara pointed out that despite a number of obstacles, the state’s government had continued to function well, with significant advancements highlighted in important areas. He credited responsible government, openness, and careful financial management for the state’s financial stability.
