For many mothers, a midwife may be the only trained health professional they see throughout pregnancy.​

That's why strengthening midwifery is about more than workforce numbers. It's about protecting mothers and babies through trusted, skilled care.

Even Aso Rock is using solar to power electricity, so why would you that is living in a Shomolu have light? 🙄 As how na?

Please o, you don’t need electricity, so you don’t need to get your PVC.

🗣️🗣️ @BudgITng Calls for Holistic Budget Reform as FG Defers 70% of 2025 Capital Projects to 2026.

Dear Nigerians, the Federal Government has decided, through the @PlanningNG, to defer the implementation of 70% of capital projects initially appropriated in the 2025 fiscal year to 2026.

What does this mean?

🗣️🗣️ Dear @officialABAT, Nigerians are still waiting.

Where is the 2026 Proposed Budget? 🤔

We are barely five weeks away from the end of 2025. So far, we have:

❌ Zero draft

❌ Zero explanation

We will keep asking.

🗣️Dear Federal Government,

Where is Nigeria’s 2026 Proposed Budget?🤔

We are weeks away from the end of 2025, yet the 2026 proposed budget is nowhere to be found.

❌ No draft.
❌ No presentation.
❌ No explanation.

This delay raises serious concerns about transparency, planning, and the government’s commitment to a predictable budget cycle. And this is only one sign that the budget process is off track.

In the next post, we highlight nine critical ways Nigeria’s federal budget process has derailed.

Nigerians deserve clarity — and we will keep asking.

Where do states stand on funding capital development?

Anambra, Akwa Ibom, Ebonyi, Abia, and Bayelsa are the top performers on Index B, showing they have more fiscal capacity to invest in essential infrastructure after taking care of salaries, overheads, and debt obligations.

But states such as Ekiti, Benue, Plateau, Ogun, and Cross River face tighter finances — meaning less room to execute capital projects that improve the quality of life for citizens.

📌 To bridge this gap, states with limited resources can leverage Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) and adopt smarter budget strategies to deliver on their promises.

Reflection from our Global Director, @seunonigbinde, at the #StateofStates2025 Report Launch:

“The State of States Report is a public resource, a roadmap for reform, a reminder that Nigeria’s future is not only shaped in the capital city, but that national prosperity engines must happen at the subnational and every corner of the federation... It challenges every state to look beyond revenue growth and focus on how fiscal health translates into better schools, stronger small businesses, and improved healthcare for citizens.”

How well is your state growing its own revenue and reducing dependence on FAAC?

Leading this year’s ranking are Enugu, Bayelsa, Abia, Osun, and Kano — states that have grown their IGR year-on-year and are progressively cutting back on reliance on federation transfers.

In the middle of the index are 25 states that, while not fully dependent on federal transfers, still fall short of generating enough revenue to fund their budgets independently.

At the bottom are Benue, Bauchi, Ebonyi, Yobe, and Kebbi, where low or negative IGR growth keeps them heavily reliant on federal funding to sustain their economies.

Key takeaway from @cenbank Deputy Governor, @Dattijo’s address: The State of States Report is driving real accountability — pushing states toward stronger capital investments, better social outcomes, and fiscal discipline. 

“We must never return to a point where recurrent expenditure overshadows capital expenditure.”

From the urgency of ensuring health funds reach frontline facilities to the realities of inflation, debt sustainability, and policy discipline — each speaker reinforced that progress isn’t just about strategy, but action rooted in data, accountability, and shared responsibility.

🗣️🗣️ #StateofStates2025: Let’s talk IGR!

Between the 2023 and 2024 fiscal years, 15 States grew their Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) by over 50%, with Enugu recording the highest growth of 381.44%, while only 2 States recorded negative IGR growth—Yobe and Kebbi, with Kebbi recording the worst decline among the 35 States.

But what does the 10-year trend tell us? Find out in our next insight.

The keynote at #StateofStates2025 highlighted a critical point: without bold reforms, Nigeria could have faced total economic collapse. Strengthening fiscal federalism and revenue reforms is not optional; it is essential for Nigeria’s economic stability.

🗣️ Dear Nigerians!

Between 2015 and 2024, many states recorded significant jumps in FAAC allocations.

Oyo had the highest increase at 785.79%, Delta, Niger, Ekiti, and Gombe recorded above 640%.

7 states—Anambra, Edo, Bayelsa, Borno, Abia, Cross River, Kaduna, and Enugu—had between 500% and 600% increases, while 14 states had above 400% but below 500% growth.

But Kebbi, Kogi, Ebonyi, Ogun and Imo saw the lowest growth—below 250%.

The BIG Question: Has this revenue growth translated into better public services and improved quality of life for citizens?
