Governors lobby Tinubu to block LG direct payment

State governors have launched a fresh push against the planned disbursement of federal allocation to the local government councils in a renewed bid to delay the implementation of the Supreme Court verdict on LGA autonomy.

Some of the governors, during a meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the state house, Abuja, last Tuesday, kicked against payment of the LG allocation through the central bank of Nigeria, citing the need to address the multi-billion dollar debts allegedly incurred by the councils.
