Lagos State Governor Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu revealed an estimated N2.2 trillion budget for the upcoming 2024 fiscal year at the Assembly Complex in Alausa, Ikeja.
Termed as the “Budget of Renewal,” it encompasses a significant allocation towards both recurrent and capital expenditures.
The Allocations
Of the total budget, N1.02 trillion is earmarked for recurrent expenditure, constituting 55% of the allocation, while N1.22 trillion, accounting for 45%, is designated for capital expenditure.
Governor Sanwo-Olu highlighted that this financial plan aims to alleviate economic challenges, including the withdrawal of gasoline subsidies, faced by Lagos residents.
Framework and Goals
The governor emphasized that the T.H.E.M.E.+ Agenda, an expansion of previous governmental budgets since 2019, served as the foundational framework for constructing the 2024 budget.

Performance of Previous Budgets
Reflecting on the 2023 budget’s performance, Sanwo-Olu indicated that by the third quarter’s end, 78% of the budget had been executed.
He expressed optimism that by year-end, the completion rate would reach 98%, showcasing the administration’s commitment to actualizing planned initiatives and projects.
