You're lucky its time for the Shanhai F1 first practice. I would have beaten eggs out of your rusty bigoted arse.

When you return, we can continue I enjoy this.

@Kilode?!: What steps concretely? Is a simple change of the revenue formula enough? Or are deeper constitutional changes needed?

For me it has to go deeper than revenue sharing, we need to put this current constitution in a shredding machine. Nigeria is currently an entitlement sharing company with pseudo-unity phrases like "federal character" and "power rotation" all because the center is where the loot is.

Concrete steps will have to be debated on and negotiated, but I can make a safe bet that Most Nigerians are not opposed to a debate neither are they opposed to a constitutional conference that will discuss the restructuring of Nigeria. The opposers are our oppressors, the same military-politician-business elites who know their influences will reduce in a decentralized Nigeria.

Concretely, we can do a referendum or plebiscite for people to choose if they want counties or cities based on language and culture, or regions, it should be open-ended with clear rules so those who can't decide quickly can join anytime they choose. But they must guarantee the freedom of every Nigerian to live anywhere, do business, vote and be voted for. Local laws will be obeyed as long as they do not violate national ones.

Eku, I don't have a blueprint of every detail beyond broad ideas(if I do, I may not release it until I'm ready to get my face on a ballot paper or raise an army 

There are cities in the US where you cannot buy alcohol on Sundays, while some allow prostitution in smaller counties, some will probably shoot you. So we can likewise allow communities to retain their culture and local character while competing with others. enough of this one style fits all, one state fits all nonsense.

New cities or counties can be administered locally and differently but based on approved national benchmark standards. i.e we can't let you sacrifice children to your local god lol. You can marry them off at 14 (if you live in Zamfara) but maybe not at 9.

This kind of self-determination will be discussed and agreed to. I tell you, as soon as the money leaves the center, only the brave and idealistic will aspire to become president. It will be a lot of work with little financial reward for the lazy. All these looters will rather start businesses. Lol

Notice what Bola Ige said in his letter? (paragraph 7 of Ige to Obj) Notice how OBJ is vehemently opposed to restructuring and true federalism? Go figure.

^-- Good post.
