Let’s stop deceiving ourselves.

Nigeria is a federal system, not a unitary one.

That means power is shared — and your Governor is not a branch manager of the President.

• The President sets direction.
• The Governors control your daily reality.

Now let’s talk FACTS, not emotions:

Fuel subsidy was removed in 2023.

Why?

Because Nigeria was spending about ₦4.39 trillion yearly just to keep petrol artificially cheap.

That money was draining the country.

What happened after subsidy removal?

Revenue EXPLODED.

FAAC allocations jumped from about ₦650 billion/month to over ₦1 trillion within months .

By 2025, it rose to over ₦2 trillion monthly shared across FG, states, and LGs .

In some reports, total distributable revenue even hit ₦3.2 trillion in a year .

That money did NOT go to the President alone.

It went MAJORLY to STATES and LOCAL GOVERNMENTS.

States are earning MORE than ever in history.

Some states saw massive increases:

Nasarawa: +185% increase
Enugu: +94%
Anambra, Ogun, others: 50%+ increases .

So ask yourself:

If money has doubled…

Why hasn’t development doubled?

Local Government autonomy is being pushed.

The Supreme Court ruled that LG funds should go directly to them.

Even the President publicly told Governors: “Give them their money directly.”

Yet many Governors are resisting.

Why?

Because control over local government funds = control over grassroots power.

Here is the truth..

The President does NOT build your state roads.

The President does NOT run your hospitals.

The President does NOT pay most state workers.

Your Governor does.

So what is happening now?

Nigerians are:

Shouting at Abuja.

Ignoring their Governors.

Voting emotionally.

Forgetting accountability.

Meanwhile…

Governors are receiving record-breaking funds quietly.

And many are NOT delivering proportional development.

History teaches us this lesson.

In functioning federations like the United States:

Citizens hold Governors accountable.

State elections matter as much as presidential ones.

That is why development is faster at the state level.

Nigeria?

We blame one man for 36 states.

See eh…

The President has:

• Removed subsidy (freed trillions)
• Increased FAAC allocations massively
• Pushed for local government financial autonomy

Now the real question is:

WHAT ARE YOUR GOVERNORS DOING WITH THE MONEY?

If Nigerians truly want change:

Stop shouting only at the President.

Start demanding results from:

• Governors
• State Assemblies
• Local Government Chairmen
  Some noise makers who are shouting are eating with the Governors with their 2 hands non-stop and helping them to divert resources to private businesses
  Power does not fear noise.

Power fears ACCOUNTABILITY.

My people, I am doing all of this to get so many enlightened.
