The Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON) has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency on the local government area system in Nigeria to protect it.
ALGON said the President could do so by fighting all injustices, constitutional impunity and all manner of executive interference in the affairs of local government areas in Nigeria.
Daily Trust reports that The association stated this in its message to Nigerians on June 12, marking the nation’s Democracy Day celebration.
Mr Kolade Alabi, National President of ALGON, urged security agencies and state governors to ensure the safety and security of the lives of vulnerable rural dwellers across the country.
