The study assesses Nigeria's infrastructure development and capital budgeting execution. A substantial correlation between the dependent and explanatory factors was found using Pearson Correlation Analysis, which assessed the link between the study's dependent variable and explanatory variables. In contrast, generalised least square regression was used to assess the study's assumptions. The study determined that the explanatory variables accounted for 40% of infrastructure improvements via the deployment of capital budget implementation, resulting in a coefficiency determination of 40%. A generalised least square regression study revealed that capital budgeting adoption has a favourable and substantial impact on the housing, transportation, and technology sectors. The results conclude that allocating funds from the capital budget for infrastructure development would increase the availability of fundamental public goods for the populace. Therefore, the government should make serious efforts at all levels to establish enough budget allocations for the provision of health care in Nigeria to improve noticeably. Similar improvements would be made to the energy supply if the requisite fiscal commitments could be made. Budgetary resources should also pay special attention to the road sector and healthcare services. Additionally, it is advised and consistent with development theory that the Nigerian government minimise its reliance on outside funding for infrastructure improvements and instead create homegrown strategies to stop infrastructure deficits.
This study's main goal is to assess how capital project choices affect the socioeconomic advancement of the populace in Ekiti State. The specific goals are to: I learn how capital project decisions are made in Ekiti State; (ii) determine the impact of the decision on education on socioeconomic development in the Ekiti State government; (iii) look into the impact of the decision on health on socioeconomic development in Ekiti State; (iv) look into the impact of the provision on socioeconomic development in Ekiti State.

The study is anticipated to be useful to academics with a particular interest in budgeting, particularly for capital projects. They will gain from it since it will enable them to see implementation as just one variable among many. It will broaden their view of other factors like formulation that could influence how individuals grow. It is anticipated that going beyond budgeting as a habit and completing all righteousness to take the exercise seriously would be beneficial to the budget practitioners and planners at the state level. The federal government should be interested in the fact that budgeting must be a major concern if every region of the country is to be developed. The purpose of the research is to shed light on the budget preparation process used by the state government of Ekiti State in Nigeria. The capital projects' effects on the socioeconomic advancement of the inhabitants of Ekiti are another goal of the study. It is anticipated that the findings would help people better understand how the budget is created and what can be done to make the system more effective so that the people of Ekiti and Nigerians as a whole may enhance their quality of life. Last but not least, the research would help the government concentrate on employing capital projects to improve the country socially, economically, and culturally in accordance with their main obligation as outlined in the Nigerian constitution.
