Oyo State Governor, ‘Seyi Makinde, on Monday signed the N684 billion 2025 Appropriation Act, tagged the “Budget of Economic Stabilisation.” Speaking at the signing ceremony held in the Executive Chamber of the Governor’s Office in Ibadan, Makinde attributed the improved budget performance in the state—from 30–35% under previous administrations to over 70%—to an inclusive budgeting process that involves stakeholders and prioritizes the state’s development.

The governor announced that the 2025 budget aims for an 80% implementation rate, emphasizing reforms, people-centered policies, and economic stability. He highlighted that the budget includes provisions for the new minimum wage, which will take effect from January 1, 2025, and reassured workers that the government would pay the 13th-month salary on December 31, 2024.

“This budget is more than a financial document; it’s an operational manual guiding our administration,” Makinde said. “We prepared this budget after extensive consultations with stakeholders across all zones, ensuring that it reflects the aspirations of our people.”
