Jigawa State Governor Umar Namadi presented the 2026 budget proposal to the state assembly this Tuesday at the state House of Assembly complex in Dutse, the state capital.

The event drew a star-studded crowd of top officials, politicians, traditional rulers, APC loyalists from every corner, community-based organisations, and NGO reps backing state initiatives.

Namadi while presenting the budget to the state Assembly, beaming with confidence, handed over the hefty document, declaring, “This N901.8billion blueprint isn’t just numbers, it’s our roadmap to transform Jigawa through infrastructure, education, and jobs, ensuring no one is left behind in our march to prosperity.”

“We’ve prioritised agriculture and security to build on our gains, inviting all stakeholders to make this budget a reality for our people.”

Responding, the Speaker, Jigawa State House of Assembly, Haruna Dangyatim, after receiving the 2026 fiscal year documents with applause said, “On behalf of this assembly, we welcome this forward-thinking proposal, it’s comprehensive and people-focused, and we’ll scrutinise it thoroughly to deliver swift passage for Jigawa’s brighter future.”
