President Tinubu and the Supreme Court have restored sanity to the Nigerian political space. This will allow the masses to benefit from democracy.

With the landmark Supreme Court judgment granting full financial autonomy to local government administration, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has demonstrated uncommon courage and leadership. This exemplifies a commitment to returning Nigeria to a trajectory of growth and development.

This was the view of the former Governor of Ogun State and Senator representing Ogun East Senatorial District Otunba Engr Gbenga Daniel in a statement signed and made available to newsheadline247 on Thursday, 11 July 2024, by the OGD Media Team.

According to Senator Daniel, “this constitutional resolution is long overdue because the local government administration is the closest to the grassroots and should have the capacity to impact directly on the lives of the people through the initiation of life-changing programs and projects.

“President Tinubu and the Supreme Court have restored sanity to the Nigerian political space as this will allow the dividends of democracy to reach the masses.
