Good development. Tinubu is getting it right gradually. Most of Nigeria problem including poverty and insecurity can traced to ineffective LG istration.

I think the NA have amended the constitution scrapping off States' electoral bodies and them no longer vested with powers of conducting the LG election but now rather the INEC. The NA have also submitted copies of same to all the SHA to amend theirs.

State Assembly are Governors puppets...they are major problems in this country.

This issue of LG autonomy wouldn't have gotten to this stage, if State Assembly had done the right thing.

It's well

Wonderful

Thos seems to be the only good news we have heard from this istration. LG system was rendered dead by successive govts to the advantage of the governors.

More good news are on the way. I am a BATeria infecting Zombidients with incurable diseases, you are an Obedient, but we both want the same thing, that is a working Nigeria

This post is disappointing as it undermines the autonomy of local government officials and sets a dangerous precedent for political interference in local governance. As a er of the FG, I stand behind the government's efforts to promote transparency and ability at all levels of government. However, it is important to uphold the democratic process and respect the decisions of elected officials. Therefore

Guy, you got it wrong. The Rivers local government chairmen tenor have expired, and Inec is yet to conduct elections. No vacuum in governance. Infact, Wike foot soldiers are gone forever.
Wike is now baseless, homeless, partyless, and Tinubuless because the wise drug Baron knows when to drop him.

A Very Big Congratulations 👏 To Our Judiciary!
The same way that Some Business Organisations in Nigeria-are doing illegalities - by rushing to different Courts,and other Upper Courts to cause unnecessary delays, frustrations in Courts, etc.
So many things are needed to be corrected in Our Democracy.

No, Rivers State is not different from many other states whose LGs are under the istration of CTC chairmen. Their monthly allocations are going to be withheld by the Federal Government. Moreover, Rivers State has already scheduled the local council elections to be held in October. Let's see how it goes.
okey

Gradually till all of you his ers commit suicide?
Abemy(m): 11:59am On Jul 11, 2024
The supreme court should be explicit on what happens to the withheld money in the nearest future.

Whether the money should be given to subsequent elected LG chairman or the money forfeited forever.

This is to avoid impeding confusion and further litigations.

Shalom

It is obvious that the expedited nature of this matter is because of what is happening in Rivers state. This shows that Wike has gone far above Rivers politics.

Things are very tough with Nigerians ,but I am confident that Asiwaju will lay a solid foundation not the shakky and faulty one we have at the moment.on economy,he should quckly fix the moribund refineries .On security ,state police is the answer. He must devote his energy to actualise it.

Very good question.
I think they will work it out by devising a sharing formular among themselves since most LCDA are just an appendage to the real local government recognized by law

The fed INEC must conduct the LGA elections. The States electoral commissions are not nothing but charades;mere tools in the hands of the State Governors to manipulate electioneering process in their own favour!
Odidigboigbo(m): 12:13pm On Jul 11, 2024
Last last, the State Government will still find a way to collect the allocations sent to the LG back, since the elected LG officers are state governor's puppets. Just like giving money to a toddler and expect the mother not to collect it from him.
