VOICE REPORTERS
Rivers, Kaduna, Lagos, Cross River and Ebonyi states have emerged the most responsible fiscal performance states for 2022.
This was contained in a 154-page ‘State of States, 2022 edition’ released on Thursday in Abuja by BudgIT, a civic-tech organisation.
The BudgIT’s Research and Policy Advisory lead, Mr Iniobong Usen, while presenting the report for 2022, with the theme, ‘Sustainable Governance Reforms for a New Era’, said Rivers State maintained its overall fiscal performance position, ranking first as it did in 2020 and 2021.
Usen, who said the report assessed and ranked the fiscal performance of all the 36 states, from the most sustainable to the least sustainable, said they were ranked using five metrics.
