Atiku Abubakar Calls Out Tinubu Over Local Government Autonomy Dispute

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for allegedly disregarding a Supreme Court ruling on local government financial autonomy to entice governors to the APC. Atiku urged Tinubu to enforce the court's decision promptly to prevent undermining the constitution.

The issue arose during an APC meeting in Abuja, where Tinubu was urged to ensure governors comply with the ruling or face the issuance of an executive order. Atiku warned that failure to enforce the judgment would constitute a breach of constitutional duty.

The dispute highlights a political power struggle within the APC.
