A recent report by BudgIT Nigeria has revealed that most local government budgets in Nigeria remain inaccessible to the public, highlighting a major transparency gap across the country. Out of the 36 states, only 10 states publish full Local Government Area (LGA) budgets, while 6 states provide partial information.
The remaining 20 states publish nothing at all, leaving citizens in the dark about how public funds are allocated and spent. The report emphasizes a troubling paradox: the governments closest to citizens—the LGAs—are the hardest to scrutinize. “If citizens cannot access local budgets, they cannot hold their leaders accountable or follow how funds are being spent in their communities,” the BudgIT report notes.
