@chiyengesampa
It's my pleasure to meet you!
I really appreciate your interest to share ideas with me about M&E as regards to Local Authorities in Nigeria.
Well, I wouldn't want to generalize on the whole because we have about 774 local authorities and some more development areas in Nigeria, so I wouldn't have the required data to talk even on average as regards to all the local authorities in Nigeria. I would rather base my experience in one state (Benue State) where am most certain, which has 23 local government areas.
In as much as Monitoring and Evaluation systems can stimulate public debate and hold government accountable. Good government is key to inclusive economic development. M&E Systems are designed to identify what works and what does not work in policy design and implementation. They help us build evidence based policy and increase government transparency.
It's unfortunate that with all these, in almost all the local authorities in Benue State are run and decided by the central government at the State level, the local authority has little or no impact in designing and implementing projects expected to be designed and implemented by the local authority.
Thanks.
I don't know if am in line with your ideas.
