He also opined that impactful leadership cannot be realised without functional leadership at the third tier of government.
The governor who supervised the oath of office administered by the Chief Judge, who was represented by Justice Zainab Sadat of High Court V said, “As you are all aware, the local government councils are no doubt the closest tier of government to the people at the grassroots. Therefore, the impact of government policies cannot be felt by a larger number of people if there is no functional leadership at the local government level.”
