The Association of Local Governments of Nigeria, ALGON, has elected the chairman of Kaita Local Government area of Katsina State, Bello Lawal as its new president.

In his acceptance remarks, Lawal expressed gratitude to the NEC members for entrusting him with the leadership of the association and vowed to build on the achievements of his predecessor to ensure that ALGON champions the autonomy of local governments in the country.
