The Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umaru Radda, has described the financial autonomy granted to 774 local government councils by the Supreme Court as a good omen for Nigeria democracy.
He spoke yesterday after casting his vote at his Radda country home in Charanchi Local Government Area (LGA) of the state during the local government elections held in the state.
Radda said financial autonomy to local government councils in Nigeria was a significant step to deepen democracy and bring governance closer to the people.
