The Dikkonomics across The 34 Local Governments
By Mannir Shehu Wurma PhD
Allow me to introduce the term Dikkonomics to describe Dikko’s innovative approach in addressing economic challenges in the 34 local government areas. I, like many others, am intrigued by Dikko’s adept strategy in positively impacting the lives of thousands within his party across all 34 local government councils in the state.
To break it down: a monthly allowance of 20,000 for each party chairman, 15,000 for each party secretary, 10,000 for 361 ward chairmen, 7,000 for 361 ward secretaries, and 5,000 for 25 executives in each local government area. This move cleverly involves local party members in the government, fostering a sense of participation that could motivate others to engage in state initiatives.
In a state plagued by apathy, this strategy has the potential to bring reluctant individuals into the government’s good graces. Recognizing that democracy thrives when the majority actively participates and benefits, Dikko has successfully encouraged citizens to become active members of their communities.
In addition to these cash transfers, local government councils have received directives to embark on dry-season farming, supported by the distribution of hundreds of bags of various fertilizers. Recognizing that idle minds are the devil’s workshop, Dikko is effectively combating idleness and unemployment among the populace.
