In 20 states, 454 local government areas are currently run by transition committees.
From next month, more LGAs may lack elected officials as tenures expire in Jigawa and Rivers. Currently, only 290 LGAs (41.31%) across 16 states and FCT have elected officers. Insecurity, funding issues, and legal battles hamper council polls. In Kebbi, sole administrators oversee LGAs, their tenure possibly extended due to election delays by KSIEC.
