ACCOUNTABILITY IN GOVERNMENT: Should State Governors be held accountable for the corruption in Nigeria?
As Nigeria struggles with the pervasive scourge of corruption, the spotlight shifts to the state governors, tasked with shepherding the country’s subnational governments. With allegations of embezzlement and mismanagement rampant at the state level, the question arises:
Recently, the former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai and some of his appointees were accused of embezzling 423 billion naira of state funds.
• Given this situation, is it appropriate to establish a panel to investigate the administration of past governors?
• Should the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission intervene, especially considering its handling of the case involving former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello who has yet to address allegations of corruption against him?
• Ultimately, does Nigeria possess strong and independent institutions that can stand against corrupt leaders and governments?

TOPIC: SEVERE HUNGER LOOMS
As Nigeria grapples with the lingering effects of economic instability, political uncertainty, and conflict, a silent predator threatens to devour the nation’s well-being: severe hunger.
According to reports from the World Food Programme 26.5 million people across Nigeria are projected to face acute hunger in the lean season of June and August 2024.
A global hunger index report published on its website has ranked Nigeria 109 out of 125 countries as one of the countries with the hungriest population in the world. The index termed the level of hunger in the country as “serious.”
• Is there a way out especially for low income earning Nigerians?
