Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa is making good on his campaign promises, and his latest move is a significant step towards transforming Ondo State.

The Governor has unveiled a ₦655.2 billion budget for the 2025 fiscal year, dubbed the “Budget of Recovery.” This comprehensive budget allocates 62.01% of the total budget to capital expenditure, totaling ₦406.307 billion.

According to the Special Assistant on New Media to the Governor, Sunday Olugbenga Abire, Aiyedatiwa’s economic recovery plan is built on attracting investors, building infrastructure, reducing economic inequality, and enhancing growth and development.

The budget also prioritizes agricultural development, with ₦56.102 billion earmarked to enhance food security and make farming lucrative in Ondo State.

Other critical sectors, including Education, Health, Justice, Trade, and Investment, have also been allocated significant funds in the Budget of Recovery.

The move signals a smooth sail to prosperity for the state, its citizens, and its residents.

Governor Aiyedatiwa’s commitment to fulfilling his campaign promises is evident in his actions.

He has already delivered on his promise to pay Ondo workers a minimum wage of ₦73,000, and his recently signed executive orders enhancing ease of doing business are a testament to his purposeful leadership.

As the people of Ondo State look forward to a prosperous new year, Governor Aiyedatiwa’s Budget of Recovery provides a solid foundation for growth and development.

With his administration’s focus on delivering good governance and infrastructure development, 2025 is shaping up to be a year of fulfilled promises in all sectors.
