With next year’s budget defense still in progress at the Anambra State house of Assembly, Ministries, departments, parastatals and agencies of the Anambra State government have been tasked to ensure that they come up with realistic budget implementation plans.
Chairman, Anambra State House of Assembly Committee on Finance and Appropriations Committee and member representing Anambra-East State Constituency, Obinna Chris Emeneka, said the 2020 budget is realizable judging from the commitment of the state government to provide critical infrastructures in the state.
Emeneka also explained that most of the budgetary allocations are tended towards consolidating on the gains of the 2019 budget while accelerating infrastructural development. According to him ”These budget defense provides the platform for government organs to give an account of their 2019 budget performance and justify whatever fund they are asking for. Observation made by the committee will form the decision during the collation process of the budget”.
The Lawmakers applauded National Light Newspapers and Anambra Broadcasting Service (ABS) for discharging its public enlightenment services exceedingly well.
