Senator Ike Ekweremadu, Deputy President of
the Senate, has called for the collapse of the 36
states of the federation into six geopolitical
zones as part of a drastic restructuring of the
country’s federation failing which the country’s
development would continually be hindered.
The abolition of the 36 states, he said, would
release the latent potentials for growth by the
regions, which he said, were, over the years,
foiled by the reckless derailment of the country’s
federalism by successive military governments.
Ekweremadu’s positions were offered in his new
book, Who will love my country: Ideas of
building the Nigeria of our dreams, which is due
for public presentation tomorrow in Abuja.
The Deputy President of the Senate praised the
nation’s founding fathers, Chief Obafemi
Awolowo, Dr. Nnamadi Azikiwe and Sir Ahmadu
Bello, for espousing federalism as the basis of
the country’s federation at independence.
He said that suggestions that fiscal federalism
would bring about distortive growth were
untenable, affirming that even in a forest, not all
trees are equal.
