Presenting the report, Chairman of the House Committee on Finance and Appropriation, Hon. Adamu Muhammad Birnin Yauri, explained that the Assembly revised the budget and sourced 43 billion naira, which was reallocated to ministries and departments in urgent need of funds.

The Assembly further resolved that the state government should write a letter of appreciation to Mainstream Foundation for constructing a full-fledged structure for Government Day Secondary School, Tondi, after its original site was allocated to the Federal College of Education, Technical, Yelwa.
Speaking to newsmen, the mover of the motion, Hon. Hashimu Usman Hinanbiro, said the renaming was to honour the Emir of Yauri, Dr. Zayyanu Abdullahi, for his contributions to the development of the area.
