Falae: There Is No Provision For Zoning In Nigerian Constitution by ganisucks(f): 10:15am On May 28, 2022 |
Former Secretary to the Federal Government and one time Minister of Finance, Chief Olu Falae, has condemned calls by many Nigerians for the 2023 presidency to be zoned to particular regions of the country, insisting that there was no provision for zoning in the Nigerian Constitution. https://www.ripplesnigeria.com/theres-no-provision-for-zoning-in-the-nigerian-constitution-falae/ 2 Likes 1 Share

but in this Nigeria's situation where issues of zoning have always constituted serious problems for our major parties, why can't we make it a law and settle this raging matter once and for all? heterogeneous country like Nigeria can't do away with zoning, that's the fact. I was actually expecting this to be considered in the recent electoral amendment act. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Yes But we all know that on one hand we always have laws on another hand there are norms. Having a handbook on how to do something, doesn't mean you can disregard your own judgements. # Just saying my view.... politics is not my thing. I'm a Dropshipping coach 3 Likes |

Confusionist elder statesmen. E be like say na age don dey affect all of una which could be understandable. I'm sure no one has ever claimed this gentlemen's arrangement brought about by the multi-ethnic position of our country is simply to enshrine and encourage a sense of belonging amongst the varying ethnic groups and regions. Yes, it isn't particularly stated in the constitution but you were okay with it when it benefited you to represent an attempted placation of the SW region against your SW brother OBJ upon MKO's deletion.

Dear Mr Falae, Nigeria is not one. The loopsided appointment Buhari did in his tenure has proven beyond reasonable doubt that Nigeria is not one. For the continuous existence of this contraption called Nigeria, it is only fair power rotates. If the north choose not to allow power rotate because they are heavily populated zombies (vote of one zombie equals vote one of sensible person), then 2023 election would just be the right ingredient to break this nation. Thank you. Regards. 3 Likes |

Old fool! No wonder Nigerians rejected you like plague in 1999. Now I see it’s because of this warped reasoning of yours. I know your line of argument… that zoning is not a Democratic Principle. 3 Likes |

richiemcgold: Why make zoning a law, when you can decentralize the government to maximize the actual benefits of our diversity? Greed of milking other regions using Federal Power is the only thing holding Nigeria together as well as tying down the progress of the country. 7 Likes |

all of a sudden the same politicians who carry zoning and federal character principle on their heads are denouncing it and championing for merit because it's the SE turn to produce president. Do you notice how all yoruba leaders like tinubu osibanjo falae etc stopped talking about zoning and have turned megalomaniacs. Its good somehow. After the election, Efulefu losers like Umahi, orji kalu, Anyim etc will understand why IPOB are doing what they are dong. 2 Likes |

Perhaps the reason Obi Pandora Japaaaa.... Imagine having a chicken hearted person like Obi as the president, is he still going to be talking and acting like a woman like he used to be as a governor? That attitude even reflected on the manner he crossed over to LP, a party he knows even if he contests for Anambra governorship under, he can not win. No....we need a man of action as our next president. 3 Likes 1 Share |

fergie001:Political correctness abi.... The law wey dey kampe self, ppl no follow am.. Something like "Bail is free" that usually occupies like 10ft by 10ft in every police station , na that one be law abi.. We should ve evolve past this situation in this country, something like this or same religion ticket won't work Some ppl may say we should look beyond tribalism and focus on capabilities of individual candidates, are they saying that out of millions of southerners, there is no capable candidates, or even among the tens of aspirants. In a sane situation, it should even microzone to geopolitical zones as long as we have provision for geopolitical area. If they want to abolish zoning, then we should abolish geopolitical zones, abolish state of origin, quota system etc etc 5 Likes 1 Share |
