The total amount disbursed to state governments and the Federal Capital Territory as financial support for infrastructure and security projects has increased to N2.45tn, official records from the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation have revealed.
The amount disbursed between March 2024 and August 2025, which spanned over 17 months, was aimed at bolstering infrastructure development and strengthening security operations at the subnational level, as part of ongoing efforts to address widespread insecurity and bridge critical infrastructure gaps across the country.
These details were contained in internal documents from the OAGF, submitted at the December 2025 Federal Accounts Allocation Committee meeting, obtained on Friday.
The disbursements were made under a special intervention programme funded through non-oil revenue savings, as part of efforts to ease fiscal pressure on subnational governments and accelerate project execution at the grassroots.
The document, titled “Ledger of Savings on Intervention to States Infrastructure and Security,” showed that the payments were drawn from non-oil revenue savings, totalling N2.45tn within the 17 months.
However, the document did not disclose how much each state received or whether the funds were disbursed separately from the monthly revenue allocation.
