Another illiterate governor talking..... A 'refrigerator technician' from Ibadan Polytechnic coming to talk authoritatively about constructional issues. What does he know? 2 Likes |

Gosola, you're right. Now couch your Assembly to resolve to make Local Governments responsible to Traditional Rulers and Traditional Rulers responsible to State Governments for Votes and Elections and Control of their Resources. |

Power Drunk governors with crazy scenarios. How exactly would giving Local Government control of finances open give opportunity for larger groups to oppress smaller ones? Second why use strawmen about local government making laws contrary to state laws? NULGE from everything I read wants end to Joint account provision. Local governments should be the people taking care of local issues like street lights, schools, roads, burial grounds etc. The fact is the emporers esque governor don't want to relinquish such power. The hyperbole about how local government having a little bit of autonomy from state government leads to destruction of federalism is laughable. Did it happen in USA? Cities in USA have level of autonomy but still fall under state control under dillon rules. 1 Like |

This statements from this so called governor is a true testament to the fact that our 'leaders' need mental test. This guy has been ruling like an authoritarian leader for more than six years. No commissioners, no local government chairmen. And now, he's making this irresponsible statement just to justify his failure. I think he needs more lesson on what true federalism is all about. 1 Like |

I have had dis argument with some guys b4, in federalism, LG isn't recognised as a federating unit. So it will b odd if we make it one, but the way our governors steal LG funds is wat brought abt d clamour for LG autonomy. |

babyfaceafrica:And what would that be? Because I don't see any point to Aregbesola's argument, just pathetic excuses for refusing to grant LGAs the autonomy they need to be effective. 1 Like |

shaddoww: I don't think NULGE claimed it wanted it to be. They just wanted joint account provision revoked. This is 3rd story I reposted about this and don't remember them claiming what this governors talking about. I think we all agree LG should have fiscal autonomy. The statest can simply limit law making power of Local government through something like dillon rule. http://www.nlc.org/local-government-authority 1 Like |

babyfaceafrica: You should explain your answer. Everyone gave actual supporting facts to back up claim. How would giving Local Government control of finances lead to issues governor claims. How well do local government carry out these duties listed.
