Nigerian Governors on Tuesday rejected the Executive Order by President Muhammadu Buhari for the implementation of financial autonomy for state Legislature and Judiciary.
The Governors clarified that while the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF) is not against the implementation of the law on financial autonomy, they would not be stampeded by the Order. According to the Governors, the President’s Executive Order 10 is not required for the implementation of the financial autonomy they jointly facilitated, as they were not consulted before the President enacted the order. Attorney-General and Minister of Justice Abubakar Malami, on Monday said the Federal Government was determined to push through the content of EO 10. He attributed the confusion over financial autonomy for state Legislature and Judiciary, which led to the strike by court workers across the country, to misconception by those who confused the financial autonomy law with the Executive Order 10.
