A high court in Akure, the Ondo state capital, has nullified the creation of additional 33 local council development areas (LCDAs) in the state.
Adegboyega Adebusoye, a judge, delivered the ruling on
Thursday.
The Ondo state house of assembly passed the bill for the
creation of the 33 additional councils on August 15, 2023 after it scaled a
third reading.
In September 2023, Rotimi Akeredolu, former Ondo state
governor, signed the bill a day after his return from a three-month medical
leave.
The 33 LCDAs were to co-exist with the 18 LGAs, bringing the
total number of local councils in the state to 51.
