Regionalism and parliamentary system of government are not solutions to Nigeria's problem – Emir of Kano Sanusi LindaikejisblogJun 14, 2024 7:38 PM Regionalism and parliamentary system of government are not solutions to Nigeria Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II has said that regionalism and parliamentary system of government are not solutions to Nigeria's problem. Sanusi who said this in an interview with Vanguard, questioned the necessity of a bicameral legislature and the rationale behind appointing ministers from every state, even when not required. He noted that it contributes to bureaucratic inefficiencies and does not necessarily serve the best interests of the nation. He also criticized the federal government's interference in state matters, particularly regarding traditional and chieftaincy affairs. Emir Sanusi also stressed the importance of upholding constitutional principles and maintaining a clear separation of powers to ensure accountable governance. The monarch who noted that regionalism will exacerbate the issues in the country rather than resolve existing tensions, also called for a more cohesive national identity and governance structure that promotes unity and accountability. He said; “I think there are several things we can do to address those structures because at the end of the day if you allow the state governors to run, the thing with devolution is we have 36 states, if only half of the governors are good, at least half of Nigeria has a good government. There is too much power at the centre, too much of the resources. The centre does not do primary education or primary healthcare, and that is where the vast majority of Nigerians are. Shouldn’t those resources come to the state? Instead of everybody going to Abuja, what is happening in Abuja? There are several issues that we need to look at. And also simple constitutionalism and federalism, just even the respect of separation of separation of power. If you take the example of what is happening in Kano today, chieftaincy matter is 100 per cent a state matter. “We had a parliamentary system in the First Republic. What happened? At the end of the day, it is the humans that operate the system. People talk about regions. Initially, the regions we had in this country were North, East, and West, and then it became NorthEast and MidWest. Where did the creation called six geo-political zones come from historically? We can keep dividing and subdividing this country and thinking of ourselves, but are we really honest? Are these regions? “If you go to the Niger Delta, since when did the Itsekiri stop fighting wars against the Ijaw? Since when did we become homogeneous? “It was the Sokoto Jihad that brought us together. From the Sokoto caliphate, we became Northerners, from Northerners, we became Nigerians. When I was in King’s College, I grew up under Yakubu Gowon in a country where Nigerians were thinking like Nigerians. What happened? Political leadership is the one that exploits regional and ethnic identities as part of the struggle for political office. “When they get there, they all sit together. If you look at the president’s cabinet, what do you have? You have everybody from every state. You have Christians, you have Muslims, you have Northerners and Southerners. Why are they not fighting one another in there? The elites are irresponsible. “Don’t think that pandering to these elites by saying the solution is going to a regional system of government. How do we go regional? In Yorubaland, there are Ijebu, Ekiti, Ijesha, Owo, and Egba since when did they become one? Right there between Ife and Modakeke, they were killing each other. It is not about that. It is not a solution. How many parts are you going to slice this country to get a homogenous country? How? With all the intermarriages and education, I am not sure that is a solution, and I think people have this dream that can only be sold by blocking out history. “We had a regional system in the First Republic. How did it end? We had a parliamentary system in the First Republic. How did it end? I am not talking about the coup; I am talking about the crisis that led to the coup. Before Nzeogu, forget Ironsi. How was the system before they came? Is there any documentary evidence that that system was fundamentally better than what we have? “We can’t shift responsibilities away from human beings, the people who are responsible for operating the system. If you go to the Senate and the House of Representatives, and you are there for 16 years and you have never passed a bill, you don’t even know that your job is to be a lawmaker.” https://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2024/6/regionalism-and-parliamentary-system-of-government-are-not-solutions-to-nigerias-problem-emir-of-kano-sanusi.html 1 Like |

Regionalism will favour every region.. Don't you think so? State Police State revenue system Internally generated revenue Won't you like your state to enjoy their resources, so as to develop themselves without issues of external influence? If TINUBU gets the regional Government to work it is definitely a good thing. Don't you think so? paramakina202: 2 Likes |

He spoke facts. Is there any documentary evidence to show that regional government was better than what we have now? No. The problem of Nigeria has always been Nigerians, not the system of government. I still support regionalism though or outright divison of the country because what we have now is not working. As it is now, things can not be better even with King David of bible as President. 3 Likes

If King David is President it will work, because there is GRACE from GOD attached to him. NIGERIAN leaders are satanists. That is why liberation of people by being good leaders is not in their manifesto. They just want to impoverish people into submission and loyalty . Nonexisting1: 2 Likes |

Nonexisting1: Yes, Nigeria was growing economically under regionalism. I came across a book written by an English author. This book was published shortly after independence and he spoke so optimistically about the future of Nigeria and how Nigeria was destined to become one of the leading economies in the world. How come we are now competing with Ghana and even smaller African countries with less resources than us? Oil could have been the icing on the cake for Nigeria but a centralized bureaucracy turned it into a curse and also encouraged industrial scale corruption. Your evidence is even more apparent when you look at countries South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore etc who were at the same level with Nigeria in those days. We need to change course. 5 Likes |
