Kasena Nankana Assembly hits 79% IGF target despite revenue dip

The Kasena Nankana Municipal Assembly has achieved 79.24% of its annual Internally Generated Fund (IGF) target for the 2026 fiscal year, according to its latest revenue performance report covering the second quarter.

As of 30th June 2026, the Assembly had mobilized GH₵806,435.95 against an annual target of GH₵1,017,733.08, representing a 79.24% performance rate.

Year-on-Year Comparison Shows Decline

A comparison with the corresponding period in 2025 reveals a downward trend in revenue mobilization. During the same period last year, the Assembly generated GH₵858,853.09 in IGF.

This year’s figure therefore represents a 6.10% decline, signalling a dip in overall revenue performance — a situation the Assembly says it is working to address.

Revenue Sources

The Kasena Nankana Municipal Assembly generates its IGF from several streams, including Property Rates, Fees, Fines, Licenses, Land Revenue, Rent, Investment, and Other Rates.

Licenses Lead Performance

Licenses emerged as the standout performer for the period under review, exceeding its annual target. Against a target of GH₵356,356.44, the Assembly collected GH₵478,235.39, representing an impressive 134.20% performance.

Fines Underperform

Revenue from Fines fell short of expectations. The Assembly collected GH₵11,772.00 against a target of GH₵28,811.88, representing only 40.86% performance — a shortfall flagged for further review.

Investment and Other Rates Record Zero Collection

Two revenue lines recorded no collection at all as of the end of June 2026.

• Investment, budgeted at GH₵7,341.04, and
• Other Rates, budgeted at GH₵4,588.16,

Both recorded 0% performance, with no revenue collected under either category.

Other Revenue Streams

Other sources — including Fees, Property Rates, Land Revenue, and Rent — recorded meaningful and satisfactory performance during the period, contributing steadily to the Assembly’s overall IGF collection.

Way Forward

In response to the decline in overall revenue performance, the Assembly says it has instituted several measures aimed at investigating the underlying factors responsible for the shortfalls, particularly in Fines, Investment, and Other Rates.

The recommendations are also intended to help maintain and improve collection strategies across all revenue streams for the remainder of the 2026 fiscal year.
