taxes

B.

grants from foreign countries

C.

oil revenue

D.

Federal government allocations

Correct answer is D

The primary source of revenue for local governments in Nigeria is the Federal government allocations.

While local governments can generate revenue through taxes, the bulk of their funding comes from federal allocations.
