What ₦1.1bn a month could pay for
That is what Southern Ijaw is allocated, on average, every month. Ask your chairman and councillors:
- Has Southern Ijaw received this money directly, or did it pass through the Bayelsa State–LG joint account? How much actually arrived?
- Where is the council’s approved 2026 budget and its latest audited account?
- Which roads, health centres, schools or boreholes were built or repaired in the last 12 months, and at what cost?
- How much goes to salaries and how much to capital projects?
