Opinion On The Supreme Court Ruling On Financial Autonomy by givedemwotowoto: 5:07am On Jul 12 |
While I like the idea of LG autonomy to speed up development, I think the states should’ve won the case. The Supreme Court’s job was supposed to be to interpret the law, and the law didn’t make LGs autonomous The National Assembly should’ve been left to do their job of amending the constitution to make LGs autonomous Section 7 and The Fourth schedule of Nigeria’s constitution (Full text below) did not make LGs autonomous Read

helinues: The constitution gave states the authority to make their own laws through their state houses of assembly to control the affairs of the LGs The constitution only recognized the establishment of democratically elected LG chairmen but gave power to the states to establish laws to govern their operations, finances and structure 1 Like |

Most people do not understand that The Supreme Court h judgement is also a Law. That is why case was taken to it directly by FG. |

The supreme Court decision is a top notcher to start containing the excesses of these power-drunk tyrannical governors who think they are emperors. |

Re: Opinion On The Supreme Court Ruling On Financial Autonomy by givedemwotowoto: 7:15am On Jul 12 |
Racoon: I like the idea of autonomy nevertheless, but going by the right way things should be done, the law should be amended by the National Assembly. The SC should’ve done it’s job of interpreting the law made by the National Assembly since there is dispute between FG and SGs over the correct interpretation They have said what they said anyway which must be respected |
Re: Opinion On The Supreme Court Ruling On Financial Autonomy by Maxymilliano(m): 8:20am On Jul 12 |
So long as JAC remains, no autonomy for LG yet. Relevant sections of the Constitution will need to be amended but the question now is, will the governors allow it to succeed? |

Foolish people never cease to amuse me, the constitution made it so, the judiciary is there to interprete the constitution. Now the judiciary clarify what you claim was made so by the constitution yet you are wailing like a sick soul over judiciary doing their job of interpreting the constitution. You'd rather the judiciary interprete Nigeria constitution to fit your foolish reasoning even when we have been doing same till without any growth since 1999. givedemwotowoto: |
