The governor has named the budget “The Peoples Budget”, and emphasized that it has increased by 26 percent over the budgets of 2014 and 2015 respectively which stood at N489.6 Billion respectively. “The increase will enable our government to focus on the present challenges of security, traffic gridlock resolution including physical and social infrastructural development which has thrown up new challenges quite different from what we used to experience and have always known,” he said. The report further states: “Giving a breakdown of the budget figures, Governor Ambode put the recurrent expenditure at N278,909bn while capital expenditure stands at N383,678bn, explaining that the capital to recurrent ratio is 58:42 as against 51:49 in 2014 and 2015.
