Critics of the creation of additional council areas in Ekiti State got a knock from the state chapter of the Association of Government of Nigeria (ALGON) at the weekend.

鈥淚t stands logic on its head for some people to think that the state must get a federal approval before creating council areas. All the state needs to do is to notify the National Assembly for the listing of newly created councils in the Constitution.
