what is wrong with the present constitution?

Biafrannuke:
Anyaoku already knows what's in the offing. He knows the man of lawlessness will toss his advice. It's just for the records.

If Anyaoku is not the lawless one here why is he not lobbying the 15 plus Igbo senators and the representatives from SE to amend the 1999 constitution with his suggestions, as others have done 5 times already?

Is Anyaoku just blabbing for the record too

DevilsEqual:

I learnt the first constitution was sole-written by Prof Ben Nwabueze and now another Emeka feels that constitution isnt cool


Emeka, most of your kinsmen already said they want Biafra, and that we are unity beggars, why dont u stop begging for unity and just allow the country disintegrate as per say na wetin una want

He should keep his opinion within the Ohaneze-Ndigbo crew

Kwontinue. The present constitution of Nigeria was supervised by northern military dictators riding on armoured cars as they dictated the ingredients of the Constitution to the Constitution drafting committee led by
Ben Nwabueze.
Anything Igbo is your nemesis.

PHIPEX:
I thought Tinubu was serious about the regionalism thing.

They all champion RESTRUCTURING while in opposition, immediately they get power it becomes a different thing. If a Southern President can't restrure Nigeria, who then will?

Buhari, who is not a southerner and who is perceived as being an ethnoreligious bigot worked with the 109 senators and 360 representatives to assent several restructuring provisions in the 5th amendment to our constitution. Where were you and Anyaoku when that was happening? Hiding under terrorist IPOB/ESN flags

Your idol President Tinubu cried all over the south-west region for more than 15 years begging for a new constitution and governance system.

You must be FAILURE itself if you don't understand that the civilians who drafted the 1999 Constitution were under the command of the military dictators.
You must be FAILURE underlined if you don't understand that no country practices a constitution written under military dictators many years after the exit of the military govts.

You must be a celebrated FAILURE if you don't understand that after drafting a constitution, the draft constitution is subjected to popular referendum before it's recognised as the people's constitution.

Stabilizing the economy should come first before talking of constitutional review or restructuring. Setting up a committee will be a distraction and another drain on the resources of the government. When the economy is stable, then the issue of the constitution can be addressed

Tinubu is the worst person we could expect to produce a new constitution.
The whole exercise would only be a chance for him to loot and nothing good would have come from it.

why will I support anyone insulting Prof? To correct you my friend? I'm not igbo nor Yoruba but where I came from we respect elders so I will never insults elders as I know it's a cursed Biblically and traditionally, it shorten the life span of an individual engaged in it.

If only ih.pob will stop killing and kidnapping people in the name of Biafra agitation and wait patiently until when Nigeria dies a natural death like Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia and USSR.

That's what people have been saying for years so as not to change the constitution

CrushObituaries:
It is good to revisit our constitution, but what are the necessary things that need to change before spending scare resources on the committee

If by now you don’t know how Nigeria needs to be restructured, then your case is hopeless! No surprises though….your choice of moniker says a lot about your state of mind and on which side of the fence you sit!

You’re either being intentionally mischievous or you’re actually ignorant! Who told you IPOB is ‘killing and kidnapping people’? Can you cite instances to back up your idiotic assertion?

You sound like a psycho with a dual-personality disorder looking into the mirror and quarrelling with himself! Dude, how can any informed Nigerian that’s true to themselves not know what’s wrong with Nigeria!? I find these type of questions you asked to be diversionary and just a way to buy time for yourselves!

Nothing wrong with the Nigeria structure and the Nigeria constitution. No way for any back door cessation plan by any so called tribe or groups. Nigeria must remain one forever. No way for any Oodua, Biafra, Arewa or any anti-Nigerian interest.

[color=#006600][/color]I pray the president harkens to the advice of the Patriots.

No way, you can't collapse the already existing states. As for your imaginaryYoruba Nation, you can have that but must be outside the territoryof the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Regionalism Regionalism Regionalism is all we want best of it all YORUBAS NATION

frog12:

No. He has spoken out many times for restructuring under so called Buhari. But this time, he visited the man of lawlessness, to warn about disintegration, for the first time.

The north and south west will never agree because of long throat for the huge oil and gas deposits in the SS and SE.

PHIPEX:
I thought Tinubu was serious about the regionalism thing.

They all champion RESTRUCTURING while in opposition, immediately they get power it becomes a different thing. If a Southern President can't restructure Nigeria, who then will?

He is a complete scammer he never meant it he is currently busy using his presidential powers to grab oil wells in the niger delta for his family.
