Very stupid comment from the mere commissioner.

Wasn't restructuring the country amongst the promises of the APC?

Coming from the lips of an acclaimed Professor? Indeed evil communications corrupt good manners.

Nigeria is due for a thorough restructuring. The current feeding bottle unitary system hasn't worked and will never work. We must devolve more powers to the states and local governments.

There's no way a state government will have to get orders from Abuja before asking the military to defend innocent people from being killed by herdsmen. There's no reason why a state shouldn't harness the vast resources within its borders to boost its economy.

And it's criminal for every other region to continue feeding fat off the wealth found in the another region.

Nigeria has NO FUTURE with this current system. True federalism will quieten all these agitation and calls for secession. True federalism will make it easier for the local people to deal decisively with their corrupt regional leaders.

Nigeria can never be great without a restructuring. Professor Osinbajo may be a professor of law but he goofed on this one.

Nigeria isn't united and will never be as long as it keeps this wrong approach to governance. The can't be ONE single solution to our problems. No one President at Aso Rock can solve all of our problems. We need to give way for true federalism. No two regions are the same. Every region should be empowered and allowed to solve their problems their own way. We are too divided and distinct to be this close. It will NEVER work.

Nigeria won't achieve greatness by forcing an imaginary unity. The centre is suffocating us all. Buhari won't solve our problems. No single President can. We need to change the structure.

You just solved Nigeria's problem with your comment while the so called Professor of Law/VP's comment is a valid proof that common sense can never be acquired through decades of reading all manner and sizes of text books.

Nigeria does not need restructuring because Osimbade is now a direct beneficiary of a system that elongates poverty and once he is no longer the VP, he will start singing the restructuring song just like Atiku the ex-rouge VP is doing at the moment.

The strategy is this, tell the gullibles what they want to hear like restructuring of Nigeria when you are not in Aso Villa, NHA, SHA etc but once you get there then you can now tell them that restructuring is no longer the problem.

I am in total support of this.. .

As far as we have same leaders with same mind set.. . And same followers with same mind set.. there won't be any change no matter the structure

londoner:


Please explain what rebranding and restructuring has to do with each other?

They are completely different things IMO.

Not true. There has never been any real attempt at restructuring Nigeria by any civilian administration. And I don't think any sitting president will agree to restructuring because that will dilute his absolute power.
Our only option would be for the national assembly to do it and pass law that would require the incoming president to implement it, whether he likes it or not.
Restructuring is the only way Nigeria can be saved from disintegration.
