“The first very important decision that was reached at the Executive Council meeting is the approval of the draft estimate of 2021 budget of the state.

“After some adjustments here and there, and the need for us to also tackle certain critical infrastructure in the state, the budget was increased to N378 billion.
“So, that is what is going to be presented to the House of Assembly.
“Good enough, in that budget, we have about N174 billion and some fractions that will be deployed to recurrent expenditure and the remaining N203 billion and some fractions to be deployed to address critical infrastructure.
“This infrastructure is aimed at strengthening the `Stronger Delta Agenda’ of the administration,’’ Aniagwu said.
