A pro-masses group, Save the Poor Coalition , has hailed President Muhammadu Buhari for signing the Executive Order 10, 2020, which granted financial autonomy to the State legislatures and the judiciary.

“By granting financial autonomy to the state legislature and state judiciary, we urge the Accountant General of the Federation to give effect immediately to this Order. We commend Mr President and urge the governors to be compliant with Executive Order 10.” Reminded that the Governors are not happy and may head to court, Enechi quipped, “Please ask the governors why they didn’t oppose the suspension of billions of debts lent them as intervention funds by Mr President?

“Naturally the Governors want to remain Emperors, a.k.a. Executive Governors, and are averse to the freedom that the devolution of powers to the people will engender, but liberal democracy has throughout history generated inherent powers which curb dictatorship. Executive Order 10 is a decoder to dictatorship which stifles development at the grassroot level.”
