President Bola Tinubu is making bold claims about his administration's impact on revenue allocation to states. In a recent statement, Tinubu boasted that the allocation to states has tripled, a development he attributes to his government's efforts.
While Tinubu's assertion is certainly impressive, it's worth noting that available data suggests a significant increase in allocations, but not quite a tripling. For instance, former Ogun State Governor Gbenga Daniel revealed that monthly allocations to states almost doubled in June 2023, following the subsidy removal ¹.
It's unclear what specific metrics Tinubu is using to support his claim, but the administration's efforts to boost revenue allocation are undoubtedly a welcome development for states struggling with funding. As the Tinubu administration continues to implement its economic policies, it will be important to monitor the actual impact on state allocations and the broader economy.
