Nigeria's local councils to get direct funding from the federal government, boosting local autonomy.
Starting January 2025, Nigeria's local councils will receive direct funding from the Federation Account following a Supreme Court ruling on financial autonomy.
This move aims to enhance local governance by reducing state interference.
Though some councils have already begun receiving funds, the full transition is expected by January.
However, the Edo State House of Assembly has suspended elected local government leaders, seen as a setback for democratic processes.
