Omo Naija, matter don yan for Abuja! President Bola Tinubu don hold meeting wey get plenty fire, as e don tell all state governors say make dem no play with this local government autonomy business. If dem try am, e fit drop executive order wey go make local councils go collect dem money direct from Federation Account.

This gbege start after Supreme Court don talk clear say local governments suppose get dem financial autonomy. E be like say some governors dey think say dem fit ignore this court judgement, but my guy, Tinubu no get time for stories. E don declare say if una no gree do wetin una suppose do, e go bring out the big stick!

Mohammed Abubakar, wey be Secretary General of Association of Local Governments, don join Tinubu talk, say all dem governors vant respect the court ruling. Abubakar dey vex say the money wey suppose enter local government councils dey wahala, instead of flowing directly. Na why he talk say Tinubu dey serious for this matter.

“Supreme Court don give dem clear order, and dem must follow am. Tinubu don show strong political will, all stakeholders suppose support am,” Abubakar yarn.

Wetin come dey worrying some people, na the way some governors dey carry face as if dem no see Supreme Court talk. Human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, don also come drop hin own gist, say na dem suppose enforce the judgment. He dey call out governors wey no gree respect wetin the court talk, say e dey very troubling.

See ehn, Tinubu don talk say this autonomy no be just for mouth, e must work in practice. “Na im we don get elections for local government, so give dem dem money!” he talk during the rally. E dey push to make sure say local governments dey act like wetin dem dey, no more lagging.

Na wetin we all dey reason be this; if local governments fit dey run well, e go do plenty things for our communities. No be small since we dey deal with insecurity and other wahala wey dey face the country. That na why Tinubu dey push for state police too, say we need local solutions for local problems.

As e be now, everybody dey watch how dem go hala am for this matter! Governors go fit respect the Supreme Court ruling or dem go ready for the heavy hand of the President? Gist dey go, but one thing we sabi be say, make dem no underestimate Tinubu own determination. Na dat one go dey interesting to see as we dey move forward.
