It is only applicable when the federal government stops controlling the resources of the states. No governor will implement it and nothing will happen. Most African countries have very weak institutions.
Federal don't control state resources. Maybe you can explain in details

This is the only good thing this Agbado regime has done so far in the last one year.
The governors that constituted themselves into demigods will now be forced to do the needful

Wait ooo..


I want somebody to put me through on what the Constitution is trying to say in Section:162- Sub-Sections; 5, 6, 7, & 8.

It's seeming somehow contradictory to this judgement..

Because I am not understanding anything here again.

Please help
Automatically,section 162 sub 6 is repealed

Ojuntana:
Lol. So who will enforce it now? What a frivolous judgement. Has any LG ever come out to say his funds is being withheld? The way to financial autonomy is to amend the constitution and remove the joint account of states and LG. Anything outside that is a joke
Lol,LG allocations will now be on first line charge and will be automatically paid.again,this judgment has killed sub 6

Please let SIEC's be scrapped and INEC should conduct LG elections for sustainable and genuine democracy at the grassroots, devoid of control of the governors.

Nothing new here... The Supreme Court should have bar Joint/consolidated account between LG and state government.... as long as the state government is in-charge of becomes the LG Chairmen, nothing new here



Modified; the supreme court actually barred the FG from paying into such joint account...I just read the details.
Nothing new?

You must have your own version of English
The Supreme Court makes a momentous judgement of profound constitutional significance and you say
Nothing new?

Better be silent when you have nothing to say

As long as the lg election is still under state electoral body, this ruling is still not complete.
Just imagine all states returning the governors party candidates 100 % in all the local government elections. That is the only weakness.
You are right partially

Let the southeast leave you blessed in Nigeria so that the southeast can form its different country from your own, you vehemently refuse, because of cheap cash from crude oil in the Niger delta region. The money they spent in sending you to school was washed into the drain pipe

Kano State used to have 44 LG before the creation of Jigawa State and after the creation still had 44 LG, many questions now needs to be asked as money would start trickling in directly from FG.

It will work if the LGAs take any defaulter to court. LGA will definitely win in court and that was what was lacking before now.

Because you think Fubara is the Governor of 774 LGA in Nigeria.

Continue.... grin
Be calming down! This local government autonomy agitation came up during several past governments but was shut down by the governors. same issue is having a smooth sail now, WHY is that?
