Politicians & their family members are not your ATMs. So, demand good governance so u don't have to beg them for money.

Follow @EngageNext_Ng to learn how you can leverage available open government data to demand good governance.

@ThinkYoruba_1st Started with greeting all her people, she also asked about there extended family members wellbeing. She went ahead to say she doesn’t have a lot to say other than to ask if they are enjoying the nice weather, and she closed with Odabo.

@dmightyangel I will try to work on and share with you the data visualization of all 18 LG budgets in Ondo state before the next space. I strongly believe amplifying demand for accountability at the LG will put d chairs and govs on their toes.

[Taiwo_Ajakaye @dmightyangel]

Lovely space....But sad reality all around.....

You see, just imagine that the advocacy on TV, Radio, religious centres every days and weekend is to mention how much comes to each LGA every month and to sensitize citizens instead of shouting Abuja.....

Just imagine them letting Nigerians know that Governors are pocketing the LGA funds and releasing N5 million out of N500 Million in some instances....

Just imagine letting Nigerians know through different platforms that no ward in any Local Govt ought not to have street light and constant maintenance all through the year done by each LGA.....

We will host Episode2 of #Project774 Twitter Space soon...

No be every time una go dey do only Political space, listen to issue based and solution driven topics and understand your environment before you start fighting lost advocacy....

@dmightyangel Only ₦1 in every ₦5 actually goes toward
building roads, schools,clinics, or community projects.Nearly all the money comes from FAAC.The LG generates just ₦72 million on its own ,which is 1.3% of what it needs.The LG is existing to pay salaries and cover cost of operation.

[TheDukeofOwo @FadeyiHenry]

@dmightyangel Owo LG passed a ₦5.6 billion budget. The money is meant to pay council workers and teachers, maintain govt offices, and build things Owo community needs. Almost 4 out of every 5 naira is spent just running the govt paying
salaries, settling pensions, and covering office costs.

[TheDukeofOwo @FadeyiHenry]

@dmightyangel Also, budgit as a report on states whose LG budgets are published in full or partially

https://t.co/3Y2ZgQOym6

[TheDukeofOwo @FadeyiHenry]

@dmightyangel Yes, Ondo state has all 18 LG budgets published. But the budget is a sham, the state government still withholds allocations so the capital components is not being funded, LGs in Ondo state only exists to pay salaries.

(BREAKING) Owo church massacre: Court sentences four to death for terrorism
June 3, 2026 1:03 pm

The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Wednesday sentenced four members of the Al-Shabaab terrorist group to death by hanging for their involvement in the June 5, 2022, attack on St. Francis Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State, which left more than 40 worshippers dead and over 100 others injured.

The trial judge, Justice Emeka Nwite, made the declaration after convicting Idris Abdulmalik Omeiza, 25; Al Qasim Idris, 20; Jamiu Abdulmalik, 26; and Abdulhaleem Idris, 25, on a nine-count terrorism charge filed by the Department of State Services on behalf of the Federal Government.

The court, however, discharged and acquitted the fifth defendant, Momoh Otuho Abubakar, 47, after finding insufficient evidence linking him to the terrorist attack.

To establish its case, the prosecution called 11 witnesses and tendered 23 exhibits, including confessional statements and a digital forensic examination report.

Among the exhibits admitted by the court was a technophone device alleged to contain communications exchanged by the defendants before and after the attack.

One of the prosecution witnesses, a Catholic priest who survived the incident, gave a chilling account of how the assailants detonated at least three explosive devices inside the church, triggering panic and bloodshed among worshippers.

Justice Nwite held that the totality of the evidence presented by the prosecution firmly linked the four convicts to the attack and justified their conviction on the terrorism charges.

The primary health care centers in Owo are still shutdown

[TheDukeofOwo @FadeyiHenry]

NULGE Chairman in Owo Local government was today brutally assaulted and in response the union has shut down all primary healthcare facilities in Owo.

All these as a fall out of the on-going battle for control of Owo Local government.

[TheDukeofOwo @FadeyiHenry]

@CAPT__Vincent My Brother, we are being taken back to the stone ages in Owo.

Last week the embattled chairman was assaulted, this week na NULGE chairman.

We currently have two people acting as chairman in Owo, there’s absolutely no regard for the rule of law or the constitution of Nigeria
