Lawmaker Urges Nigerians to Hold Governors Accountable for Economy

Federal lawmaker Yusuf Gagdi has called on Nigerians to hold the 36 governors in the country accountable for the state of the economy. Gagdi, a member of the House of Representatives representing a federal constituency, criticized the governors for allegedly failing to complement the reforms initiated by President Bola Tinubu.

He highlighted that the federal government had tripled state allocations since the removal of petrol subsidy, questioning the transparency of the governors in managing these funds. Gagdi's comments come amidst debates on the effectiveness of Tinubu's policies and the allocation of resources to states.
