Otti, while signing the bill, said the 2024 Budget would move Abia from its current level of underdevelopment to development.
The governor noted that the budget ratio of eighty four per cent for capital expenditure and sixteen per cent for recurrent expenditure was not a mistake, but a deliberate plan to accelerate the growth of Abia economy within a short space of time.
He added that the budget is expected to activate foreign and local investment, spur large scale and medium businesses, secure the state and prepare Abia for the next level of development.
Otti, further, commended the Speaker and members of the State House of Assembly for the expeditious passage of the bill.
Earlier, the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Emmanuel Emeruwa, affirmed that the budget would touch the lives of Abia people positively.
