This is a good development as long as the Chairman are voted into office by the electorate, a Governor can't just wake up one day and decide to sack them. 5 Likes |

Soo the chairman of Obiakpor LG that Rotimi Amaechi removed wud hv to be reinstated. Amazing. Governors have always usurped LG powers. The side effect to this is that governors might not even conduct LG elections sighting one reason or the other so as to keep holding on to the money accrueable to the LGs . Yet they cried blue murder when NOI created SWF and was deducting money from their allocation. Bunch of hypocrites. 24 Likes |

Officials you meant. Down here in Edo, few months ago, the comrade Governor wrested power from one Honourable Yakubu who won the local government election into Esan North East LGA of the state... He won the election flawlessly bt Oshiomole in connivance with IEC annuled the result and posponed the election, all cos he is on the platform of PDP.... The day to which the election was postponned came and he floored APC again....bt oshiobaba struck and enthroned his loyalists via caretaker commitee! It's no news abeg. 10 Likes |

the next nd most sensible thing to to do now is to split their account, if the state and the local govt maintain a common account, the govs would still exercise some powers over them 4 Likes |

The truth is If a Governor can wake up and decide to sack an elected LGA Chairman then A President can also wake and decide to sack any Governor or Senate, house of rep member he doesn't like and that will be bad for our democracy. 4 Likes |

very commendable I must say. many of these guv'nors run their states like personal fiefdoms. their houses of assembly which are supposed to check mate the excesses of the state executive is totally useless in most cases. one can imagine what will happen when they get more money if the revenue sharing formula, as is being proposed, increases their share. 2 Likes |
