โ–  The genesis of this mess is the creation of LCDAs from the LGAs, as there were no allocation for the newly created LCDAs and the government want to meet their needs, hence, seized their allocation and share among the LGAs and LCDAs. That is just the genesis and it started in 2004. Let us call a space a space and not a spoon. The fragmentation of LGAs without allocation to the fragmented ones caused all this and it began from Lagos and Enugu and I think another state in the north. I can't just recall now. As laudable as that gesture was, it really paralyzed the third tier of government. Lagos was able to survive because they are making a lot of money from tax because of many effects in Lagos.
But all of this is illegal though when you consider what is stated in Sections 7 and 8 of the Constitution. Why then were there no objections from the beginning against these acts? undecided

That was why OBJ said it is not possible you create new Local Government Areas without the constitution amendment and Tinubu took the case to supreme court while the rest states withdrew the LCDAs created and the supreme court gave a verdict that state have the powers to create new Local Government Areas but never talked about it financing. That singular verdict caused this problem.
How would supreme court gave the power to create local government areas to the state, a local government that was the creation of national assembly, now becomes the creation of the state by supreme court verdict. That verdict caused the problem we are facing today, we now find it difficult to retreat from the supreme court verdict because supreme court cannot rule against itself.
Till today, allocation have not be prepared for those LCDAs so created by those states and to go back to the status quo becomes difficult.
Now, the FG had approached the supreme court to mandate the state governors to hands off the finance of the LGAs, so that their allocation can be paid directly to their accounts but they have forgotten that the same governor have the ace with him to fragments same LGA and also conduct election to choose who becomes the chairman of that LGA.
Even if the supreme court ruled that the LGAs allocation be sent directly to their accounts, the governor still has the ace to choose who will be there that he can control because he controls the SIEC in his state, as we all know that SIEC doesn't conduct election but only announce who they want to be chairmen.
Another very big issue that the anticipated judgement will cause if the supreme court asked the FG to send the LGAs allocation to their account is, it means the LCDAs will no more have allocation again because it is the allocation sent to the consolidated account of the state that governor share to all LGAs and LCDAs to survive.
The question now is, how would they run and also survive without allocation while the authentic LGAs live larger because their population is no more up to the allocation of money accrual to them.
Let us see how they we weather the storms in the event FG get favourable judgement and allocation sent to LGAs directly and not the state consolidated account.

Why is it that the writer didn't write anything about the view and position of the Governors in the case at the Supreme Court.

Lagos State for example is Tinubu criminal enterprise, let me use one LGA as an example. Amuwo Odofin , the Local government is located inside festac at 41 Road, this criminal enterprise collect tax from festac residence in hundreds of millions but if you go to FESTAC the roads are like Gaza war zone.

Decades ago, one Tinubu right hand man Ayo was made the chairman by Tinubu and this idiot was literally using cement and sand to fix roads. Once rain fall twice they start all over again.

Back then around 202 road/ FESTAC police station there was a bank there (Oceanic bank) currently Eko bank. In front of their bank there was a drum hole not potholes that was causing traffic and they fixed it overnight because the LG chairman Ayo refuses to give them the go ahead to fix that pothole for free o.

Two days later, Ayo sent his thugs at midnight to destroy the spot again because he was expecting hundreds of millions from state government for that particular pothole.

FESTAC is Federal government property, that's why you need to understand the State you live in to be able to count yourself as a resident of the State. Along that axis, there are several FG domain....the inner roads on the other side of the road (Amuwo, Oluti, Alakija (has more FG domain too).
If you see Ayo maintain did his best in the areas his LG covered. Another hindering factor was the LCDA covered but are unapproved by the FG. So, whatever the LGs get in Lagos State are divided amongst the 47 LGs/LCDAs in Lagos. Lagos has 20 LGs and 27 LCDAs. I doubt if you even know the 27 by heart.

The Genesis of Nigeria problem , Nigeria was safe & secure when LGA were run effectively because the LGs are the closest to the people. Gone are those days when farmers can get fertilizers, tractors, seedlings and other farm inputs from their LG. And the use of local vigilante were efficient. But things went south immediately selfish governors emperors took over and reduce local government to just a mere office in their cabinet.
I keep saying it the FG fault in all these mess is just a few and Nigerians are yet to realize that the Governors are cancer โ™‹ to the 5th Republic, the only way out is regionalism and that's when we all see the rot that the gov has caused
what's difference between region and state

Nigeria is finished
The third tier of government is as good as dead or moribund where it exists.
Tere is urgent need for LGA reforms in Nigeria.
All SIECs should be scrapped and return status quo to how it was in 1999 when INEC conducted LGA elections.
Democracy is as good as dead in Nigeria because elections at all levels have not been credible. It is even worse at the LGA under state governor control. What exst today is not democracy but civilian dictatorship
and you think it will be any different at lga control level? Learner

I hope the masses are seeing whom their enemies are....the politicians whom they're running after and worshipping like gods. Despite what the constitution says about the LG administration, they're using them as conduit pipes to siphon money, thereby shortchange the masses.
have the masses complained? Poplitics is not a spectator sport

This is bullshit.

Presidents doesn't control state governments.

Why on earth should governors control the affairs of the LGA even down to elections that should be under the purview of iNEC?

We are not ready for development honestly.
void the constitution says so. Unfortunately

Which fit??, anything Nigeria politics is not worth the trouble

All state arms are busy forming loyalty to governors, and all federal arm doing the same!


Tinubu/Buhari was never loyal to pdp
Adeleke broke from apc
El refai was rejected

One vacuum is that there's no specific timeline for conducting LG elections like we have for governors and president in the constitution. This needs to be amended.
who will
You need 2/3 of 2/3 states houses of Assembly. That's 24 states must agree to change the law in the constitution

Currently, the Federal Government receives 52.68 per cent, states receive 26.72 per cent, and LGs receive 20.60 per cent of the countryโ€™s monthly revenue allocated by the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission, which is domiciled under the Presidency, and is disbursed by the Federation Account Allocation Committee.:
you see the problem. wastes everywhere. you need 2 committees to give you money grin

A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Audu Ogbeh, who was recently interviewed on Channels Television, stated that the Federal Government should discontinue the payment of LG funds to such joint accounts, and move them to accounts solely operated by local government administrations.:
na more looting you go dey see by 774 LGA chairmen. we are not ready for democracy !

ts better than Looting by 36 governors only
Let the Looting go round
