New devt commissions will make FG too powerful —Olajide, YCE scribe
Secretary of Yoruba Council of Elders, YCE, Dr. Kunle Olajide, in this interview, warns against creating more development commissions to avoid concentrating more powers in the centre. Olajide, who spoke in the wake of the clamour for four new development commissions in the country includng the South West Development Commission Bill sponsored by Senator Ibikunle Amosun, ex-governor of Ogun State, in the Senate, also admonishes that more commissions would breed rivalry that could increase the rate of corruption in Nigeria. The scribe of the regional body demands what he calls return of powers to the federating units.
