From FAAC.

—FG gets 52.68%
—States get 26.72%
—LG get 20.60%

I personally don’t believe FG should get that much percentage because it just does not make any sense. FG should also give some part of their percentage to the states/LG.

Finally, if the Supreme Court can give judgment that support full LG autonomy, that 20% will go a long way in making dividends reach the grassroots more.


I totally agree with your final submission .

NB: the word grassroots doesn’t have a singular form

Very good
The best thing that Tinubu can do is this

I trust my Ebonyi governor that is preaching human capital development Governor Nwifuru to allow the local government chairman assess their shares from Abuja

Haven't read through completely but this is good news. Also the LGA elections are the very worst and only ever represents the interests of the sitting governor. This also needs to be revamped so that the people's voices/votes can be genuinely heard.

You are not making any sense at all. What is wrong with creating more LGA especially with the population of Lagos?
The issue is about granting LGA autonomy so that more development can reach grassroots but you are here saying another thing.

It should be the other way round.
FG should get the least and LG the most.

Government must start and concentrate on the grassroots

How does this tally with granting LG autonomy?
Do you know the responsibilities of LG at all?
If only you know, you will appreciate this suit.

1. This is meaningless. There's already a supreme court judgement against dissolving validly elected LG before their tenure ends so i don't see any merit in the first application. I think the Supreme Court or a court already ruled against LG autonomy during the time of Fayemi as chair of NGF so it will be interesting to see the part of the Constitution Fagbemi is looking to enforce. Fayemi also made a profound statement that the constitution essentially recognised two levels of govt and the LGs are simply administrative units.

2. If caretaker committee are illegal (which I think they are) and the tenure of LG chairs is 3 years while their elections is to be conducted by SIECs, what happens in a case when the elections have not been conducted while their tenure has expired? Who runs the LGs then?

3. Finally, has the section 162(5) and(6) of the constitution being amended to abolish JAAC? If not this sounds like a joke which the SC will only laugh and move on

My thoughts exactly. There's nothing stopping state assemblies from SIECs independent. If LGs aren't elected the FG should hold the allocation in suspense until elections are conducted. If the court does like that then the only solution is jail.
