IBADAN — Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, is expected to present the 2027 appropriation bill to the state House of Assembly today.
According to a letter addressed to the House last week, the presentation was scheduled for Tuesday (today).
Earlier speculations had suggested that the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Ladoja (Arusa I), might be absent due to an alleged recent rift.
However, those speculations were laid to rest as the monarch arrived at the floor of the House of Assembly on Tuesday morning alongside other dignitaries, effectively dispelling rumors of any discord.
As of 11:44 a.m., lawmakers were still awaiting the arrival of Governor Makinde at the legislative chamber to present the much-anticipated budget.
The 2027 fiscal budget marks the final budget presentation of Governor Makinde’s second term in office as his administration winds down.
