OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU, EX PRESIDENTS AND ALL CRITICAL STAKEHOLDERS IN NIGERIA

THE BIRTHING OF A NEW NATION, NEW GENERATION, UNIFIED PEOPLE, UNDER THE ALMIGHTY GOD, THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE THROUGH GENUINE RESTRUCTURING – WALE OLAGUNJU DCPN PRESIDENT


The Directorate of the Concerned Patriots in Nigeria and Overseas use this medium to express our profound gratitude and thanks to our present and past leaders for their past and present contributions, support and tireless efforts in building our nation called Nigeria up till date. We recognize and appreciate your immense support towards building our nation. We also extend our thanks towards great works that you all have done in the past and present, in the capacity of fostering and restoring unity, peace, stability and tranquility in our nation Nigeria. However, some of our past and present leaders went through some challenges during those times they were trying to build this nation. Some lost their lives and family members while others went to prison and some went on exile. Some were left frightened for life physically, emotionally and mentally as a result of the challenges they went through. We thank you all again for your tireless efforts in harnessing peace, unity and order and promoting peaceful coexistence in our nation as well as promoting health, agriculture, education, rural and urban development.

We also express all our appreciation and thanks above to our ex-Presidents and Vice Presidents, patriots, former and present Governors and Deputy Governors, former and present Inspector General of Police, former and Present Chief of Defence Staff. All former and present Chief of Army staff, Navy and Air force staff. All former and Present Senate and Deputy Senate Presidents and Speakers House of Rep, former and present Chief Justice of Nigeria, and all distinguished legal luminaries. We also express our appreciation to all our Royal Fathers, Clerics both Muslims and Christians and notable critical Stakeholders who have contributed towards building our nation in one way or the other.

We, the Directorate of the Concerned Patriots in Nigeria and overseas under the leadership of Prophet Moses Akinwale Olagunju (The Presiding Bishop Divine Seed of God Chapel Ministry) REG/CAC/IT/NO 24973, appreciate and thank you all while you are all still alive, unlike other nations who only appreciate their leaders when they have gone.


Your Excellency sir,
This is the time that you and your present team of governors, ministers, members of the national assembly and other critical stakeholders including past leaders etc… can come together and rebuild and restructure a new nation called the United States of Nigeria (USN) as a sovereign country with sovereign states, without any form of division.

Texas is a sovereign country and also a sovereign state under The United States of America (USA). We can also see this, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) making Dubai a sovereign state under them. We can also rebuild and restructure our present nation Nigeria into a sovereign country called The United States of Nigeria (USN) with sovereign states like: Kano, Kaduna and Sokoto etc… This will further make our present country Nigeria to be the first and only African country whose states are united under the new name United States of Nigeria (USN) without any form of division.

Since we are currently practicing the American presidential system of government, we should also restructure fully in line with the American system of governance, which is true federalism where all arms of government will be fully functional. It holds a promise of Nigeria’s redemption. Furthermore, it will rank our nation among the advanced and well organised nations in the world, envied by other countries and it will also resolve many lingering crises our nation is facing and move the nation forward under the new name (United States of Nigeria) with all allegiance to the federal government of the United States of Nigeria. Note this important close, we must place the love and unity of our country above tribal and religious sentiment. Hence, any state which by whatever means should decide to break from the United States of Nigeria will be confronted by the whole states, for we want to remain one entity under the United States of Nigeria as a role model for other African nations.

This will also make Nigeria to be the first and only African country in the continent whose states are united under the new name called the United States of Nigeria. It will be a sovereign country, with sovereign states under the United States of Nigeria without any form of division. For we want our country Nigeria to be the pace setter for other African nations to emulate. With this kind of new development operating in our new nation called United States of Nigeria (USN), the rural communities will be highly developed and there will be no room for abject poverty, as it is today.
More so, corruption will be reduced to the bearest minimum. The exodus of poor masses from the rural area to urban centres will be considerably reduced. Please, these are the actions that we are advocating for the present government to embark upon to restructure this present country Nigeria to a sovereign country with sovereign states without any form of division under a proposed new name called United States of Nigeria (USN)

The past leaders failed to tackle this serious problem of agitation, break up and unrest which has been lingering in the country called Nigeria since after the Biafra war in 1970. This is almost 54 years ago, people have embarked on agitation and breakup of the country till date without any solution but crises upon crises daily. It is like postponing evil days sitting on a keg of gunpowder which can explode any time. The most important reasons for these actions to be embarked upon immediately without any delay is to put a permanent end to agitation for break-up of Nigeria and also put an end to the many lingering crisis/injustice besetting the Nation Nigeria. We just have to tackle this issue of agitation NOW to avoid another civil war in Nigeria
The President must embark on National Reconciliation now so as to pave the way for total and genuine restructuring through National Referendum or Confab.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
1. We are patriots in Nigeria.
2. We have great interest in guiding our nation in the paths of righteousness.
3. We are committed to equal rights and justice in our nation.
4. We embrace and preach peace in the nation.
5. We love our country and embrace unity, stability, and pursue progress for our nation Nigeria.

THE SOVEREIGN NATION
Nigeria has 36 states presently. These 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja will remain as Sovereign states united without any form of division, under the United States of Nigeria (USN) as a Sovereign nation while the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja still remains the capital of this new Sovereign nation or country called United States of Nigeria (USN). We will also have an Executive President just like the United States of America (USA),

THE PROPOSED NEW NAME
The Birthing of a New Nation, New Generation, Unified people, through genuine restructuring of the Country Nigeria as a Sovereign nation with sovereign states including the Federal Capital Territory Abuja (FCT) without any form of division called United States of Nigeria (USN), while the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja still remains the capital under this new Sovereign country called the United States of Nigeria (USN). It is one Nation under the Almighty God.

OUR OWN TYPE OF RESTRUCTURING
Restructuring will bring development and innovation to the states from the local government level to the state level. The needs of the people will be taken into account in terms of local clinic/health centres, local post-office, local shopping malls, local police station, forest guards/rangers, local relaxing parks, road, water, street lights, playgrounds and local security, etc. By developing from the local level, the needs of the people will be met and this will further and steer development and innovation to the state level. When states are developed from the local level to state level, the country will be developed as a sovereign nation with sovereign states. Each state needs to embark on intensive agricultural mechanization and animal husbandry. This is what restructuring is all about. The issue of restructuring the Nigerian nation is a complex one that one must handle with utmost care.

Step 1: What we are advocating for, is for our leaders to come together in ‘UNITY’ so as to renegotiate the nation based on sovereign Nation with sovereign states under the United States of Nigeria (USN) without any form of division just like the United States of America and the United Arab Emirate (Dubai).
The second step is National Reconciliation because the Nation has been seriously fragmented through ethnicity and political differences.
NATIONAL RECONCILIATION will serve as the foundation of restructuring our country.
Step 3: The third step is NATIONAL REFERENDUM/ CONFAB.
Step 4: The fourth step is to have a review panel set up by the president.
Step 5: The fifth step is to send the report to the National Assembly for debate/approval.
Step 6: The sixth step is Constitutional Review/ Amendment.
Final Step: After excessive debate and approval by the National Assembly on the drafted Bill about the restructuring of Nigeria to a Sovereign country, with sovereign states under a new name called the United States of Nigeria (USN), the drafted bill will be sent to the President of Nigeria for him to append his signature for the final approval of this drafted bill in order to take effect and become law.
After the final approval and the signature of the President of Nigeria on this drafted bill, this bill automatically becomes law and the new sovereign nation United States of Nigeria (USN) takes effect while the old name Nigeria would no longer be effective any more.

IMPORTANT CLAUSE:
All states must pledge allegiance to the Federal Government to the United States of Nigeria (USN). We must place the love and the unity of our nation above tribal and religious sentiment. Hence, any state which by whatsoever means, should decide to break from the United States of Nigeria (USN) will incur the wrath of the whole states for we want to remain as one entity under the United States of Nigeria and be a role model to other African Nations.

REASONS AND BENEFITS FOR RESTRUCTURING
National Sovereignty is when a nation has the power to govern itself. The country does so without any interference from outsiders, meaning that they have complete control over their own territory. A State’s sovereignty is based on the exclusive power that it exercises over its territory and its people
“What we are advocating for is for our leaders to come together in ‘UNITY’ so as to renegotiate the nation based on sovereign Nation with sovereign states under the United States of Nigeria (USN) without any form of division just like the United States of America and the United Arab Emirate (Dubai).”“However, this will solve many lingering crises by moving our nation forward and favoring every tribe. However, the religious crisis will be solved because every religious body/individual can practice the tenet of their faith without any hindrance. We will also promote and advance the course of the youth.”
We have 36 states presently and it is impossible to disband the 36 states without causing a greater crisis than before. These 36 states have gone far, they are like children who have matured to some extent into adulthood. Disbanding them is like killing adult children. These 36 states have moved beyond foetus level of babies in their mothers’ wombs. They are no longer in the womb. If we disband them, it is like killing them, their growth and development which would cause lots of harm and injuries to the child. Any child killed can never come back alive. Instead of killing a child, it is better for us to train and redevelop the child, that is, work on the child and assist and support the child for his/ her improvement in the areas of his/her weaknesses. Our committee reviewed many things in order to prevent further crises, instability and war in this present country called Nigeria.


We decided that we need to maintain the peace, stability, tranquility, progress and prosperity in our country.
How do we maintain the Oneness, peace, stability and security of this country? We need to redesign our own sovereignty to fit our targeted purpose, needs of our people which will enhance development, innovation, peace, and unity without any division while maintaining that ONENESS. We look at the Sovereignty of the UAE (Dubai), the United States of America (USA) and also the United Kingdom (UK). We realized that we can also be under one Sovereign nation with sovereign states, united without any form of division. The cement and water which we are going to use to rebuild our nation for a proper rebirth of a NEW Nigeria under the United States of Nigeria (USN) is unity (cement) without any division (water) where each sovereign state pledges allegiance to the federal government of the United States of Nigeria (USN) We believe we can also develop better than all these countries we mentioned about and be a role model to other countries in Africa and the world.

THE TYPE OF SOVEREIGNTY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
The sovereignty we are talking about is Sovereignty of a Country called Nigeria to be changed to the United States of Nigeria (USN) where each state is given its own sovereign power, authority and ability to rule and govern over its own territory to itself independently without any interference from external powers.
This will help each state to develop as a sovereign state within this sovereign country called the United States of Nigeria (USN) united without any form of division, just like UAE, (Dubai) and the United States of America. (USA) However, each sovereign state pledges allegiance to the federal government of the United States of Nigeria (USN). This way each state is given exclusive sovereignty over its own territory to make laws and policies that will enhance development and innovation to the grass root level. This is the way of building the ruins and desolations of many generations which we have left for years undone.

The Benefits of a Sovereign Nation with Sovereign states United without any form of Division
1. Autonomy: By having sovereignty, a state can make its own decisions and determine its own policies without interference from other governments. This allows a state to have greater control over its own affairs and to pursue its own interests as well as the interests of its people and for the general good of the United States of Nigeria.
2. Great Competition among different states under the United States of Nigeria in State building and development
3. Grass root development and innovation: Most of our local governments will be developed
4. Power and authority can easily be exercised within the state
5. Laws and policies can be made to suit the needs and development and innovation of each state as the people will be involved in state building, development and innovation
6. Promoting monopoly of legitimate voices united: The voice of the people can easily be heard from the grass root level as they will also be involved in decision making for state development.
7. The independence, peace, security and stability of each state is maintained and sustained.
8. The rights and freedom of people in the state is protected
9. Better life is provided for all citizens of the state up to grass root levels.The citizens of each state will have an independent mind set. Let's build it together. We do everything much better when we are allowed to do it our own way instead of having someone else force their own ideas on us.
10. Promoting Unity and Social inclusion from grass root level to state level
11. Reducing poverty, instability and inequality from grass root level.
12. Knowing that the benefits of their achievements is first and foremost theirs before everyone else, the citizens of each states will be motivated to work hard; they will develop a ‘ can-do spirit’ and an unanimous and independent mindset of “we can build our states by ourselves together’’, they can do everything much better when they are allowed to do it their own way together instead of having some other people force their own ideas on them.
13. Since the federal government will be excluded from primary, secondary and tertiary education except in setting, supervision and enforcement of standards in collaboration with the states in matters of subject contents – quality and directions in relationship to national education and other development goals as well as morality which will forbid introduction of foreign culture into the Nigerian education system state promotion of state owned unity schools and social inclusion from grass roots level can be strongly embarked upon by the states statewide.
14. Reduction of poverty, instability and inequality from grass roots level will be achievable because the local and state governments will direct employees of labour, instead of directing civil servants in factories and other business ventures. These may be fully owned by the state government or partly owned by her in a Public Private Partnership (PPP) to create employment and wealth for the state and of course the nation, using the state’s minerals and other resources and potentials of the state that are waiting to be harnessed.
Other areas of employment at local and state government levels include the Local Government and State Government Police Forces, environmental and sanitation workers like in the old Public Works Departments (PWD) at local government levels, farmers’ support and agricultural extension service workers at Local and State Levels and necessary coordination offices at the state level.
15. However, the religious crisis will be solved because every religious body/ individual can practice the tenet of their faith without any hindrance.

Finally, we enjoyed the regime of our past and present leaders, including all the critical stakeholders in Nigeria till date. We should please forget every political difference and come together to team up with the present Government and restructure the Country called Nigeria. We do not want to witness another senseless and wasteful war, just like the 1966 war, which left us stagnant for many years without progression and development till date. It is our firm belief that this is the only saving solution and grace to preserve the unity and stability of our country Nigeria without any form of division or bloodshed.

Anything different from this genuine restructuring that we are advocating for might lead to war, bloodshed and instability of our country Nigeria. It is like postponing evil days sitting on gunpowder which can explode any time.
