My position: I support total restructuring of Nigeria to regional levels and 100% resource control...

According to United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples which Nigeria is signatory to: "the native/indigenous people have the right to protect their lands and resources, and to maintain their unique cultures and traditions. They also have the right to self determination "

https://www.un.org/press/en/2007/ga10612.doc.htm?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C9240336874

You may ask why I refer to the above declaration. The reason is to correct this notion that those calling for Biafra are beating the drums of war; they are rather exercising their fundamental human right. They cannot be stopped by the use of force or intimidation but rather a superior ideology and narration like restructuring. According to Prof. Wole Soyinka:

“You may destroy the people that carry the idea on the battlefield, but, ultimately, it is not the end of the story.” and he is absolutely right. The Amnesty International reports that " At least 150 peaceful Biafra activists killed in chilling crackdown"

We made the same mistake with Boko Haram. Look at where we are to with the North East Region. If not for the novel approach to the Niger Delta crisis by late president Umaru Musa Yar'Adua (may his soul continue to rest in peace) by now we would be battling with huge instability in Niger Delta. Look at the way this admiration brutally murdered Shites Moslems in Kaduna. According to Kaduna state government report : "347 Shiites killed by army buried in secret"

The usual pattern of using military force to crack down insurgency, rebellion or session is archaic and destructive - it produces anarchy and deep crisis.

The Scotland asked for an exit from United Kingdom and a referendum was conducted. Britain asked for Brexit and it was put to voting. When are going to start handling our issues like decent and educated human beings?

Buhari got into office and told the whole world that the 2014 Confab report belongs to the archive. it is really a pathetic thing to say given the numerous challenges that report would have addressed. I also find it amazing that Tinubu, Osibanjo and co that were in favour of restructuring have changed their position to "the unity of this nation is nonnegotiable" slogan. They (politician) usually take this position once they start eating from the "national cake" situated at the center and I won't be surprised if Atiku that is in favour of restructuring changes his position once he gets there.

The state of the nation is worrisome and frightening. If we continue on this trajectory, we are definitely headed for total breakdown and deep crisis. Nothing is working as it should in Nigeria. Power generation, health care delivery, quality education, transportation of goods and services, food security, internal and external security (border control), employment rate... are all in sorry and poor state. The economy is in recession and I wonder how this mono-economy that depends on oil will survive 10yrs from now when electric cars, renewable energy, shale oil come fully on board. Let me add that the FG spends N66 out of every N100 earned in servicing debt. Our debt profile is pathetic. The FG can't build a mega project without borrowing/increasing the debt profile. Is that how we are going to develop and diversify the economy? Paying salaries is now an achievement.

The question is not whether the call for Biafra is feasible, right or wrong. The question is does Nigeria have a future?

is the unity of Nigeria, a multi ethnic and religious country, negotiable?

Happy Sunday.

I support a unified Nigeria with each state/region controlling her resource...

Nigeria cannot grow with the current system of govt... Except if all our current and past leaders are removed from the helm of power.

Nigeria was great
