The Kaduna State House of Assembly has passed the state’s second and third supplementary budgets of N19.2 billion for the 2017 fiscal year.

The budget estimates which were read for the second and third times at the plenary yesterday comprised N1.5 billion second supplementary and N17.7 billion third supplementary estimates.

The Speaker, Alhaji Aminu Shagali, said that the second supplementary budget of N1.5 billion was for the state’s commercial agricultural development projects.

“The third supplementary budget of over N17.7 billion would be used for road construction and water projects,’’ he added.

The Chairman of the House Committee on Information, Nuhu Shadalafiya, said the budgets were given accelerated passage because contractors handling most projects had left their project sites due to paucity of funds.
