<\/div>\n

Uganda is considering a lower budget for the 2025\u20132026 fiscal year as technocrats attempt to strike a compromise between expenditure objectives and numerous funding shortages. This comes in the face of mounting state debt and growing electoral anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite sharing similar issues, other neighbouring East African countries, including Kenya and Tanzania, have declared plans to increase spending. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uganda’s total resource envelope for the fiscal year 2025\u20132026 was valued at USh57.4 trillion ($15.5 billion) at the end of December. Earlier last month, it was increased to USh66 trillion ($17.8 billion) by adding more spending items that the Cabinet had supported.Uganda’s current budget of USh72 trillion ($19 billion) is the highest in its budgeting history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The removal of one-time expense items that were included in the current budget is primarily responsible for the reduced resource envelope available for the upcoming fiscal year starting July 2025 to June 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These include “last-minute” financing for certain oil and gas infrastructure-related projects that allegedly missed out on donor funding, a USh556 billion ($149.9 million) subsidy given to a local pharmaceutical manufacturing company, and the repayment of a USh9 trillion ($2 billion) loan that the government owes to the Bank of Uganda (BOU).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Kenya, President William Ruto’s government has increased its spending target for the fiscal year 2025\u20132026 by 7.69 per cent to KSh4.2 trillion ($32.55 billion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is after the state’s commitment to implementing its proposed austerity measures waned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2025\/2026 fiscal year’s expenditures pale in comparison to the KSh3.9 trillion ($30.23 billion) spent in the current fiscal year (2024\/2025), whose implementation is beset with challenges.The administration hopes to finance the bloated budget through domestic revenue collections and continued borrowing from the domestic market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tanzania’s 2024\u20132025 budget will now exceed $19 billion after the Tanzanian Parliament authorized an increase of $363.7 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The increase is the result of additional funding from the African Development Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). <\/p>\n
