Don\u2019t send them cash, deduct their own and keep it,\u201d Ogbeh said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t be sending you money that disappears. You don\u2019t repair primary schools, you don\u2019t do anything, the money vanishes and they say they are paying workers, for which work? Strolling around in the morning and drinking palm wine? These are the issues. Those failures are creating dangerous problems for the country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ogbeh accused some governors of misusing local government funds by appointing loyalists to caretaker positions and diverting resources for personal gain.<\/p>\n<p>There has been a growing demand in Nigeria for greater independence and self-governance at the local level.<\/p>\n<p>On May 26, the federal government filed a suit at the supreme court against governors of the 36 states &#8212; seeks full autonomy for the country\u2019s 774 local governments.<\/p>\n<p>Ogbeh asked the President and state governors to confer and determine the fate of local governments, adding that functional LG would effectively alleviate numerous social and environmental issues plaguing the nation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere you have a system which unfortunately is not working. If it were working, a lot of these problems would not be there. You have a governor in the state and there are 10, 15 local governments, and the local government is failing.<\/p>\n<p>He said local governments should be treated as collaborative entities for comprehensive development, adding that if governors fail to empower them to provide essential services like clean water, healthcare, and education, the system should be abolished altogether.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I want to say to Nigerians, if we don\u2019t want the local government system, scrap it, if it were allowed to work, it would have been a fantastic system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The minister said that governors are fueling grassroots discontent by unilaterally removing democratically elected local leaders and replacing them with handpicked caretakers, thereby sowing seeds of resentment and frustration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ogbeh urges federal government to end joint accounts.
