The Oyo State Government says it plans to realise N112.1 billion Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) in the 2018 fiscal year, which it has earmarked to fund 41.91 per cent of the 2018 budget.

Governor Abiola Ajimobi had, on December 14, 2017, presented a budget proposal of N267.4billion, tagged: ‘Budget of Stabilisation,’ to the House of Assembly.

The total Recurrent Expenditure was put at N118.37billion, while the Capital Expenditure stood at N149.1 billion.

Commissioner for Finance and Budget in the state, Mr. Abimbola Adekambi disclosed the state government’s plan, on Monday, when he presented analysis of 2018 budget proposals to the public at the House of Chiefs, Parliament Building, Secretariat, Ibadan.

According to him, “An average of N4 billion monthly is being proposed by the Board of Internal Revenue. This projection is believed to be a more realistic estimate as we have married the actual monthly IGR of N1.3 billion to the positive expectation from the completion of the reforms to the structure and the autonomy of the BIR, expected increased revenue from the informal sector, deepening of enforcement.”

He stated that a total of N48 billion is being expected from the Board of Internal Revenue, while N64.1 billion is being expected from the Ministry, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), adding that the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development would provide a chunk of N40 billion as the government would open up more GRAs.
