State governors are getting called out for wasting public money while everything falls apart. The Nigeria Employers Consultative Association accused them of misusing increased federal allocations. NECA's director challenged citizens to demand accountability for the spending. He pointed to crumbling infrastructure and rising insecurity as proof of poor governance.
The association head stated that governors fail to justify the monthly funds received from the national account. Properly addressing food, transport, and education would make governance more inclusive. He argued that solving these issues would benefit everyone in a state.
He linked joblessness directly to the security crisis. Creating an environment for business growth would engage idle hands. State governments hold a critical role in fostering job creation through private sector support.
The official also highlighted problems for farmers, who face blocked access to land or heavy illegal levies. This mismanagement contributes to broader economic and food security issues. He lamented the absence of credible data on companies damaged by the harsh climate.
This data gap hinders effective planning and national development. A data-driven approach would fast-track economic progress. He advised all government levels to align policies with clear growth objectives. The private sector remains the true engine for job creation and sustainable development.
