It is no longer news that the 13 Local Government Areas of Nasarawa State could not pay salaries of their workers, pensions and gratuities of their retired personnel following the implementation of the financial autonomy granted to local governments

He gave the support during a meeting with the outgone chairmen of the 13 local government areas, director general of Nasarawa State Pension Board, as well as leaders of the local government pension union at the Government House, Lafia.Governor Sule said at the meeting that he was ready to redeem his earlier pledge to assist the LGAs from the second trench of SIFTAS Funds, so that the council areas could pay one month pension arrears to their retirees.

He re-echoed the need to elect only competent hands to manage affairs of the third tier of governance in the state, while hosting members of the Mada South Unity Forum at his private residence in Lafia recently. He bade farewell to the former chairmen of the local government areas in the state, as well as overseers of development areas, whose tenure comes to an end on May, 28, 2021.

He blamed the situation on dwindling resources from the federation account, as well as the inability of the councils to generate enough internal revenue, to support local government expenses.
