Nwaelohim:
NIGERIA don't need political or regional restructuring we will be creating more problems than we already have presently.

What we need right now is mentality restructuring, our behavior can not sustain anything meaningful in any form of political restructuring.

We must think like people first and agree that this is our country and everyone is our country man.
Political restructuring can not end greedy nature of politicians nor will it stop pastor's from misleading people for their personal gain.

We need to create and enforce things that makes us less greedy and patriotic as people with one voice one vision and one purpose.

The word restructuring means different things to different people and everyone wants a working and functional country. So let us have a conversation on what we are restructuring. Now is just a political comment for political parties and opposition.

Let us be citizens first

being part of a tribe is all about choice, The great people of Ilaje said they're Yoruba.

Why should a core Yoruba group be merged with SS?

El Rufai gave a wonderful restructuring idea with his fellow Governors in 2018 but what many still fail to understand is that only the National Assembly can restructure our constitution

No President can do it, no Governor has powers to do it

But the Senate President Ahmed Lawan said they will not refuse any request from Buhari. Isn't that why they are called rubber stamp?

Don’t allow this controversial midget from HELL deceive you... he is only interested in 2023

No Northerner supports restructuring Ideas because they know HUNGER will finish their people

I hope I made sense

g4gerald:

U cannot think like dis in a country dat treats u as a second class citizen, a country where human lives are not valued, a country where one section maginalise the others nd where one section is known as 'the 5% ters'
U must understand dat the current political structure is designed to favour only the north, for eg more state were created in the north, the d constitution has it dat every state wud produce a minister, wat does dat tell u? More ministers will come from the north since they have more state, isn't it? nd even more representatives in the national assembly.
All these needs to be corrected b4 we can have a sense of citizenship, sense of being a part nd parcel of this country, only then can we think the way u are talking about.

That is the reason he said they should seize the moment because they have the majority in both houses of the national assembly.

Unfortunately, if there's famine in Nigeria today, it's the south, southwest and southeast that will die of hunger... Since the protests started, have you bothered to check the price of foodstuff in the south? Everything has skyrocketed... Meanwhile, those in the north aren't affected much...

Now, if you inquire why things are so expensive in the south, they tell you it's because there's no road to transport goods to the south.

3 bulbs of medium size onions now sells for 500 in Delta and Port Harcourt... Sachet tomatoes now sells for 150, from 50... How many people can afford all this increased food costs?

This is why you saw many cases of warehouses being looted in the southern region of Nigeria.

A lot of you keep getting fooled by NBS statistics to think that the north is poor and wretched... But what is poverty in reality? Is it not being able to afford three square meals a day because of high inflation? You find it more in the south.

We keep thinking that crude oil will rescue the south... The true benefits of having crude oil only reaches those who are at the corridor of power in Nigeria and in the south in particular due to massive corruption. Do you think this will change when they redraw the lines dividing this country? No. Many ordinary folks will still be poor and reliant on crumbs falling off the tables of the rich and powerful in the south, the rich and powerful in the south who like to see themselves worshipped as gods.

Meanwhile, how many people can eat or drink crude oil when the time comes? When there's excessive hunger in the south?

Many of the northern leaders know this truth and that is why they spend the little allocation they receive on building the infrastructure to support farming and other economic activities in their region.

Go to Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom and tell me what they have been doing with their massive allocation and 13% derivation for years... You have many political billionaires in the south but infrastructure is dead... agriculture is dead... Living expenses excessively high, making many of the ordinary folks poor and unable to meet their daily needs...hence the high rate of internet fraud, yahoo, and other crimes all in a bid to escape poverty placed on the people by excessively corrupt southern politicians who actively divert the attention of southern people to northern Nigeria as the cause of their problems.

Wake up my brother. It is daybreak already.
