Kaduna clears pension arrears

The Kaduna State Government announced that increased federal funds under President Bola Tinubu have allowed it to address financial challenges, including clearing N18 billion in pension and gratuity arrears. The state inherited significant debt upon Governor Uba Sani's assumption of office, which threatened basic operations like salary payments. Infrastructure development has expanded, with 115 road projects underway across 23 local government areas, connecting rural and urban communities. These projects aim to improve transportation, support agriculture by linking farmers to markets, enhance healthcare access, and bolster security. Agricultural funding has surged from N1.4 billion in 2023 to over N100 billion in 2026, reflecting a major shift in resource allocation.
