LG autonomy: AGF warns governors against tampering with Supreme Court’s\u00a0 judgment<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, has warned state governors not toy with have the idea of overturning the Supreme Court’s judgment, which granted financial autonomy to local governments.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Fagbemi, who spoke in Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, insisted the governors\u00a0 must respect the judgment. .<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He added that though the Federal Government did\u00a0not grant the three-month moratorium requested by the governors for the implementation of the judgment, its implementation is being delayed by the need to establish certain frameworks.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He said: \u201cUnfortunately, I know it has been in the media that they gave them (the governors) a three-month moratorium, which is not the position. The position is that, yes, the judgment was delivered, but we felt that there is a need to put some things in place before the full implementation. That it is going to be implemented is sacrosanct; nobody can run away from it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cAre they going to rewrite the judgment of the Supreme Court? Once we have the full details of their law, we will act accordingly.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThere is no such moratorium. The judgment was passed, but we acknowledged the need to establish certain frameworks before full implementation. Nonetheless, implementation is compulsory, and no one can avoid it.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Some governors are suspected to be piling\u00a0 pressure on the local government chairmen in their states to ignore the judgement.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u00a0For instance, Anambra State Government, under Governor Chukwuma Soludo,\u00a0 recently enacted the Local Government\u00a0Administration Law 2024.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The controversial legislation was interpreted as Soludo’s plot to evade the Supreme Court judgment in the state.<\/div>\n
