In this powerful address, Ms. Cynthia Rowe draws on decades of experience with local government reform in the UK and globally to reflect on Nigeria’s evolving path toward grassroots governance. With candour and personal anecdotes, she emphasizes that active citizenship, not just policies or court rulings, is the real driver of reform.
“Autonomy without planning is chaos… real change happens when citizens hold leaders to account.”
Ms. Rowe shares five key lessons from the UK’s experience with devolution—highlighting the need for clarity of roles, strategic planning, citizen engagement, fiscal transparency, and democratic integrity. She also commends Nigerian-led innovations in states like Kaduna, where local councils are working with communities to prioritise development.
Her message is clear: reforms must be grounded in real-world delivery, not just legal frameworks. And international partnerships, like the UK–Nigeria collaboration, can help when rooted in respect and shared learning.
