A local government council has an annual budget of $12,000,000$ Naira for a waste‑management programme. The budget is initially allocated as follows: 40 % to personnel, 25 % to equipment, 15 % to public awareness, and the remainder to maintenance. After the allocations, equipment costs rise by 12 %, which must be covered by reducing the maintenance allocation. Additionally, the council receives a grant of $800,000$ Naira that must be used exclusively for public awareness. Determine the final amount (in Naira) allocated to each of the four categories after these adjustments.
