THOUGHT ON NIGERIA

THOUGHT ON NIGERIA

I had this thought that if the State Governments in Nigeria are abolished leaving the Federal and the Local Government levels and the concurrent list altered with the Local Governments exercising some Exclusive Powers while the Federal Government exercises Residual Power there will be  radical turn around in the quality of life of Nigerians.

The implication of this will be among other things include,

1. The fund made available to the States will revert to the Local Government,
2. The Federal Leadership will not be attractive as all politicians will return to the grass root,
3. The Quality of Local Government Administration will improve.
4. The Houses of Assembly will not exit

Further, this will have to alter the political party structures in terms of spread and independent candidature a as well as electioneering cost.

Lets think about this fellow Nigerians.
