Since 2015 that the runaway white lion of kogi entered office, local government affairs and elections were cancelled and were run by his thugs/mafias in the name of caretaker nonsense. |

immortalcrown:The people can now go straight and hold any non performing chairman accountable if they see no tangible development. Over time Local Chairmen would decide if they want serious heat from their people or use the money for projects to settle Governors. |

1x2x3:The autonomy is only for collection of federal allocations, not for spending the allocations. So, what has really changed? Remember that every state has its own electoral body (not INEC) that conducts local government chairmanship elections. With this, governors will make their puppets LGA chairmen and decide how those chairmen spend the federal allocations. If you think the chairmen can decide to disobey the governors, think of how many LGA chairmen that are clean enough to boldly and successfully disobey their political godfathers. Remember that the puppets selected as LGA chairmen are the ones with rotten profiles that can be used to blackmail and silence those chairmen when those chairmen prove stubborn. |

honestivo:No And yes This is part of the serious issues in Nigeria ok Yes governors can elect them but FG dies not send the money to governors any more It goes straight to the LGA The people now know how much comes to their LGA and know exactly what development to expect and anything shot of that the LGA bosses will be in soup . The people will mob them ole . A developed rural area is a developed country |

cathodekazim:The matter go long. At least 70% of nigerian wealthy and rich men are slaves to sex. They can do anything for sex. Good Example is one useless jarule abi what is his useless name that beat his wife and compensated her with 10 Million Naira. Ordinary 10,000 Naira, they can never give their fellow random men. Even some poor men you see doing like they don't fornicate, Na because money never dey their hand. Very useless people. |

immortalcrown:Yes we are so currupt in this society but am always believing there must be a turning point in life to everything that was wrong to be corrected and do things right. Imagine states waking up now. We can't continue like this. It will take a while to balance up but definitely the curruption of LG will not be as much as that of a state. LG is closer to people, how many roads, street lights , market, farms, security vehicle required that can not be fixed completely before 8years even with inflated prices. Moreso, chairman has no immunity and can be jailed. Some governors were jailed before so why not at LG level. Las Las, some of them will perform very well. So it's good we start doing it right and corruption will be checked with time. |

South343:There is a place where I say you should ask yourself how many LGA chairmen will be clean enough to successfully disobey their political godfathers. Fubara is able to do it because Wike has fact to use to blackmail Fubara. |

bigpicture001:it is two sides, we have goood governors and the bad ones, we will still have good LG chairmen so the electorate need to hold their leaders accountable |

Meti99:if you the wait for messiah you are on your own oooo.. it's a gradual process and with it we will get there.no one can change Nigeria overnight except he has a magic wand..the local government autonomy is a step in the right direction ,we know it can't eliminate the corruption in the local government but atleast they will be a reduction.. We need not to trade blames here and there because we are in one way or another part of the problems and our leaders are a true reflection of our true self. Nigeria is in comatose and resuscitating will take time, effort and patience..let's join hands in our small capacities to begin to effect positive change for the development of Nigeria thats when we will see the Nigeria we want. |

immortalcrown:Let assume Gbajue man was the one in charge and fought for this LG autonomy and victorious like this, with all sincerity will you still have strength to compose your comments like this? Lest I forget he didn't even conduct LG election in 8 solid years. |
| Re: LG Autonomy: 13 States Rush To Hold Council Polls by iamwebguru: 10:08am On Jul 17, 2024 |
The state electoral commission should not be the body conducting the election. If they are, the governor could control and manipulate the election. The federal electoral commission should be the one conducting the election as soon as possible. |
| Re: LG Autonomy: 13 States Rush To Hold Council Polls by teepain: 10:10am On Jul 17, 2024 |
1x2x3:I agree with you but I just want to add that it will be easier for EFCC to handle local government chairmen because they they do not have immunity from prosecution which unlike the governors. |
