If you did youth service in the North especially in a local government office, you'll not be excited about this news. During my service, the LG chairman came to work once a month, at the beginning of the month precisely when LG allocation fund came. He would come to the office, share money and return to Abuja. It favored me though.

now there is social media,assuming it was to be the present,the way you called him out now,if other users calls him out the same way ,eyes will be on him and he will adjust.

More money for the LG to loot, nothing exciting about the ruling but empowering more looters.

Wether you like it or not it become a law of the land on the issue of vat supreme court said maintain the status quote they have not say anything about that so any judge pronounce by supreme court become a law of the land immediately

BluntCrazeMan:
The constitution says something else in Section-162: Sub-Sections 5, 6, 7, & 8..

The Supreme-Court might have banned the State Governments and any of their appointed officials from drawing from the special joint account.

The funds can only be operated where there are duly elected LG chairmen and councilors.

yes you are right. According to subsection 7 in the Nigeria constitution, caretaker is been appointed for 3 months to filled in the vacuum of the chairman office before a new election will be conducted for the chairmanship seat. So Governor’s appointing caretaker for 4 years or 8 years is out of context and illegal in the Nigeria constitution.

Review as who exactly Mr. Soludo

Anguldi:

Barman give him a chilled bottle of Origin 🍻 .
Many don't understand that election will become tougher.

yes. INEC should conduct LG election too. That will be much competitive and much fair in the LG level.

Kam2021:
The judgement is a good one. Some states the local government chairmen don't even go to council, all pressure on the governor and presidency.
With this development will start trickling down directly to the people. EFCC will have more customers 🤣🤣🤣

And lawyers may have more jobs too

States are close enough to the people.

Can you please elaborate on this

flokii:
State Govs have no other option than to grant the 774 LGAs their autonomy in line with the Supreme Court ruling else FG will seize all States allocation.

They don't have the power to hold them any longer, Supreme Court is Supreme

The States will LCDAs will have a hard time on this. Hoping the LGAs they were carved out from will be gracious to share allocations with them.

How close pls explain. Remember this is not happening for the first time in nigerian. It was in place during the military and we know our chairmen and councilors with massive development everywhere, so how close is a governor to the people in the villages bush and forests

You are stvpid for this your statement

Waste of time and effort . ..

LG monies will be paid directly to them. ..

LG autonomy has come to stay.....

The Nigerian politicians know the right things to do but they will not put effort to do it only if it favors them.

This LG autonomy because it didn't not favour Tinubu, Wike and his camp, it mainly favors their opponents they decided to do the right.

I pray that this state governors that was affected will come up with the right plans that will enforce the right things that doesn't favors the FG so that there will be continuity of progress and development in our nation.

Soludo Fool!!!!
Review what Exactly??

Soludo Fool!!!!
Review what Exactly??

Joint Account is established by the constitution, so you don't just scrap it by a ruling, you legislate it out (repeal)

So paying LGA money to any other account other than the State Joint Account is illegal

And the Constitution is superior to the Supreme Court

Even Soludo, who is a professor nah thief, can you imagine

Foolish man...u want to review ur looting strategy...

ExudeLoveToAll:



The constitution says three arms of government and talks about separation of powers , what then is separation of powers when the LGA don't have the power in the first place?

Stop embarrassing yourself!
3 arms of government means - Executive, Legislature and Judiciary.

LGA is not an arm of government

Wicked Governors,,

They are part of our problem,, yet they pretend to be saints,..

And make citizens believe that Mr President is the devil behind our predicament

press9jatv:
you said more than this when the judiciary is been granted their full autonomy under Tinubu government last year. Today no joint account between executive and judiciary in all the 36 states in Nigeria again. All the money meant for judiciary are been sent to the judiciary accounts in all their various States.

Leave him to his nonsense, the Attorney General of the federation would have mandated the accountant general to pay the Local government straight from the federation account.
