President Bola Tinubu’s call for governors to prioritise citizens’ welfare, echoed by the United States’ Embassy’s recent critique of their extravagance and mismanagement of resources, has fuelled the urgent need for Nigerians to start holding their leaders at the subnationals accountable, Davidson Iriekpen writes
Again, President Bola Tinubu last week called on state governors to prioritise the welfare of Nigerians by investing more in rural electrification, agricultural mechanisation, poverty eradication, and infrastructure.
His advice came on the heels of a presentation on the Renewed Hope Ward Development Programme (RHWDP) at the 150th meeting of the National Economic Council (NEC) in Abuja.
