Restructuring Nigeria Is Possible - Balarabe Musa Replies Gowon by kirajustice: 12:18pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
Alhaji Balarabe Musa, a former governor of Old Kaduna has disagreed with a Former head of state, Yakubu Gowon over his statement that Nigeria cannot be restructured. Gowon earlier stated that due the fact that Nigeria had over 500 ethnic groups with different dialects and languages, it would be practically impossible to restructure. Reacting to the statement, Musa blamed the current problems facing the country on the failure to continue with the 3Rs, reconciliation, Reconstruction and Rehabilitation which was instituted by Gowon himself after the 1967 civil war.He said; "If Nigeria had maintained the 3R policy introduced, this wouldn’t have happened.So our own idea of restructuring is first to reconcile Nigerians so that they can commit themselves to one united nation. The second thing we have in mind is political reconstruction in which we will return to the regional arrangements, by having three viable regions as federating unit, as opposed to the present thirty-six states of the country, because they not viable." He added: "In regional arrangement where we have 6 states for instance, with rich regional government, having their own constitution and federating unit, whereby they manage their own affairs they have the resources at their disposal, they will not have to be depending on the federal government. The other restructuring we required is economic restructuring, the government at every level should play it role in the economy, in order to ensure stability, peace and equality for the development of the whole country. This is our idea of restructuring. And that is why we don’t need 36 states, we want to return to the 1963 constitution, whereby our regional government with their constitution will constitute the federating unit, were eastern, western and northern region was viable enough and even the middle east that came later was viable, as compared with the federal 36 states. If any region wants, they can create more states and local government, if they want, provided they create them without depending on the center.So am not in support of what Gowon said, restructuring is possible and is even desirable." https://politicsngr.com/2017/10/29/gowon-restructuring-nigeria-possible-balarabe-musa/ 29 Likes 5 Shares

Balarabe Musa was more intelligent than Gowon who only spewed thrash.No wonder he was the stooge of hausa-fulani cabal after they inturn murdered Ironsi in July 1966 because he was their available best option.Almost 10yrs later they conspired to overthrow him when they had a firm grip on the military. What is the situation today? The middlebelt/NC(where he belong) and parts of Southern Nigeria have been the killing fields of these same brutes while he looks helplessly.Since then these idiots have continued to dominate our politico-military spheres And they tend to make the trend permanent.So unless this country is restructure this imbalance will never be corrected.Useless leaders. Restructure,referendum or disintegrate this shithole of a country. 10 Likes |

Nigeria youths are useless and senseless, only active on social media. They can't see that their future has been taken away by these old fools. And that the only way to get it back is by FORCE! Keep Instagraming, Facebooking, Tweeteing and Nairalanding. Your future has been mortgaged, you imbeciles. 10 Likes |

Gowon has shown to be one of the causes of Nigeria's problems. Gowon has shown so far that he is unintelligent from his youthful age uptil now and this is the reason why he reneged on keeping his own side of the Aburi accord. Gowon has shown that he is one of those that is keeping the youths of today in bondage. Gowon will not go unpunished and his sins will be remembered. 15 Likes |

Gowon, Buhari and all the other ancient thinkers will rather Nigeria fights a civil war than be governed in civility. Nigeria will indeed have a civil war at some point if people increasingly feel the desire to leave the Union. Look at how the British handled the Scotland and northern Ireland desire to leave the Union by making sure they had autonomous self government for the region so much that it was impossible to blame lack of development on authorities in London. This made the same Northern Ireland and Scots who had always wanted to secede to vote for a united country. In Spain, the central government gradually usurped the power of the Catalan regional government and the call for secession became louder and louder. It is exactly the tactics Nigeria uses to force a unitary system of government which is largely skewed towards stealing the resources of the south for exclusive development of the northwest zone in particular and the north in general that has condemned Nigeria to disintegration unless the system is reversed to what was agreed at independence for us to come together as one country. 7 Likes |

AbrahamIsrael: You took the thoughts right out from my mind. Gowon has been one of the unfortunate Calamities that befell this potentially great nation. After 51 yrs, simple wisdom has still refused to visit this moronic man. After the very critical roles that Gowon played in Nigeria's history, the only thing that this empty barrel offers this nation today is his silly " Nigeria Prays" clown show. 4 Likes 1 Share |

yeyerolling: Restructuring is the ONLY way out. It will come when it will come no army can stop it unless they want to commit suicide. Mark my word. Many people initialy thought Buhari was a saint not knowing he was "saint looter", heartless human. I am appealing to the youth please don't take the law into your hand. Only a madman will confront an armed soldier.especially when he is a Fulani man.. Their only combatant strength lie in confronting armless civilians or forcefully vaccinating children/people they consider threat to their domination with drug only known to them. Nigeria is better off with all the tribes living happy together under united restructured Nigeria with no individual owning an oil block. Control your resources pay some percentage to the center Equal representation in enlistment in all the armed forces and police. Immigration , custom , federal police. Let us not use youth as yard stick to electing those who will be in charge in the new Nigeria aferall governor Belo is a youth who is as confused as an ilitrate leader. 3 Likes |
