Abstract

There is an acrimonious relationship between local government administration and state government administration in Nigeria. This is basically due to lack of autonomy of local government administration and seeming control of this tier of government by the state government. This paper proposed frameworks towards a new agenda for state/local government relationship that will usher in unprecedented cooperation and strengthen the pathway to development.
