Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has signed into law a bill establishing 13 new Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs).
Speaking at the signing ceremony held at the government house on Monday, Governor Yahaya said the creation of the LCDAs was in line with the provisions of the 1999 Constitution and was guided by the need to address population growth and ensure grassroots development.
The new LCDAs and their headquarters include Akko North (Amada), Akko West (Pindiga), Balanga South (Bambam), Billiri West (Taal), Dukku North (Malala), Funakaye South (Tongo), Gombe South (Bolari), Kaltungo East (Wange), Kwami West (Bojude), Nafada South (Birin-Fulani), Pero-Chonge (Filiya), Yamaltu East (Dadinkowa), and Yamaltu West (Zambuk).
Gov Yahaya maintained that the long-term benefits of creating the new councils, such as job creation, improved access to services, and enhanced security, far outweigh the financial burden to be incurred in setting them. “Like the creation of Gombe State in 1996, these LCDAs will usher in a new era of progress for our communities and the state at large,” he emphasized.
An Interim management committee and a transition technical team led by the deputy governor will oversee the set up of the new councils.
