Minister of Cities, Local Government, and Public Works Adam Shareef Umar has said that he will conduct a study on decentralization with the participation of the people.

Speaking on a TV program, Minister Shareef said that it has been a few years since decentralization was introduced to the country. Therefore, it is important to consider the people's views towards the system should be considered, said the Minister.

The Minister said the government intends to conduct the research through Universities. The government also aims to have as many people as possible participate in it, said Minister Shareef.

Adam Shareef said the changes to the decentralization system have been made without much consultation or research.
