About these figures
Source: monthly FAAC disbursement reports (net allocations to Benue State), as published in the National Bureau of Statistics’ disbursement tables. Net means what is left after deductions at source.
Each month is named for when the money was shared, which is the month after the revenue was earned. Only months in our records are listed. A missing month does not mean nothing was paid.
Local governments’ allocations are separate and are not in the state’s total. An allocation is income: it does not show how the money was spent.
