Increased local government autonomy, as established by a recent Supreme Court judgment, significantly empowers citizens to ensure accountability and drive community development by providing local governments with direct control over funds
.
Here's how this empowerment works:
• Direct Control of Funds: The Supreme Court ruling mandates the direct transfer of funds to local governments, making it illegal and unconstitutional for governors to interfere with this money. This drastic change in the democratic structure provides local government chairmen with the power to decide how funds meant for communities are used, opening room for development in education, healthcare, and other critical areas
.
• Citizen Role in Accountability:
◦ Electing Credible Leaders: Citizens are called to action to elect credible local government chairmen. This involves conducting due diligence, researching candidates, attending campaign events, and asking challenging questions to ensure leaders are proactive, committed, and genuinely desire to serve their communities.

◦ Vigilance and Oversight: With funds now going directly to local governments, community members must remain vigilant. They are encouraged to attend local government meetings, participate in town halls, and stay informed about how funds are being utilized. Citizens have a right to know how their money is being spent and must hold their chairmen accountable for every naira and kobo.

• Driving Community Development:
◦ Collective Effort: Community development is presented as a collective effort, not solely the responsibility of the local government. Citizens are encouraged to volunteer for community projects, join local development associations, and support initiatives aimed at improving their neighborhoods.

◦ Creating Stronger Communities: By actively working together, citizens can create stronger and more vibrant communities for everyone.

Corrupt leadership may be a disease, but citizen silence is the oxygen that sustains it.
When people refuse to question, demand, or act, they indirectly empower decay.
