In August 1950, the soft-spoken and dependable ally of the British colonial administration in Northern Nigeria, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, launched a surprisingly radical attack on the colonial government administration popularly known as the Native Authority (NA) system. In a motion in the Northern Regional House of Assembly, Balewa vociferously criticized the NA system as antiquated and stale. He called for overt and unambiguous manifestations of modern emerging political values of western educated elite for inclusion and universality of the content of the immediate changes it required, applicable at the federal, provincial and district levels of governance. This is an analysis of the context and the immediate changes it required. It is not only an account of the NA system in these contexts, it is also an analysis of the conditions that necessitated these changes, including the nature of the colonial administration and accountability. What Balewa said in the Northern House of Assembly in Kaduna in 1950 still resonate in the reality of governance and accountability in the local level in contemporary Nigeria, seventy-five years later. The actors and nomenclature may be different today but the same old reality remains.
