People at the local government level are expecting more from the Local Government Area chairmen since the decision of National Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) to pay LGA federal allocation directly to them came to light.
This expectation heightened peoples interest in investigating what the LGA funds are used for in the local areas and some people are already pointing fingers at their TC Chairmen in Abia State accusing them of incompetence.
Just recently, Obingwa LGA Chairman Hon. Chief Chidiebere Ihenyeremadu(Jato) was in the spot where we was accused of incompetence. In his reaction through his media aide, he revealed the following;

Referencing your post Augustine Akomas, I wish to respond on this your unwarranted attack on the Chairman of Obingwa Local Government without prejudice.
The T.C Chairman, Obingwa Local Government was appointed and sworn-in on 14th of February, 2019, a day prior to Presidential Elections, which election disbursements has been made by some Commissioners and other Governor’s Aides through Local Government Allocation…
Nonetheless, no Local Government Chairman has the capacity to execute any project based on the Meagre running cost allotted to them.
Of a truth, a huge amount was collected (Facility) with ALGON account in the name of election processes which wasn’t utilized for the purpose of collection.
However, The only money given to Obingwa Local Government was the Ten Million Naira fund for projects which other Local Government’s received same last week.
Meanwhile, whosoever that wears a shoe knows where it pitches him. ISIALA NGWA SOUTH CHAIRMAN may have used his project fund for a purchase of Vehicle’s. Perhaps, JATO in his wisdom had his F&GPC meetings today for proper and adequate utilization of said fund in line with the descriptions of F&G EXTRACT.
Akomas, I would have advised you set your machineries or consult those in possession of this Obingwa project fund or seek the Chairman’s opinion before you strike…
JATO is a man of his Words.and wouldn’t shy away from responding to you if the need be. You can also verify if he has aids or not. If you have personal grievances, then you are on your own. The Obingwa project fund is not for personal aggrandizement.
Long live Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu
Long live Abia State…
Long live Obingwa Local Government
Long live Hon. Chief Chidiebere Ihenyeremadu

Remember, allocation accruable to Obingwa LGA is about One Hundred Fifty One Million Naira monthly.
Attempts to speak to the LGA chairman himself proved abortive.
