I dont understand why a lot of people are making noise on this thread. Its not like its a secret that the North will ever agree that Nigeria be restructured. They often said they are prepared to go to war than accept any form of restructuring. They said so in the 2014 conference. So what is new? Anybody who believes in "one Nigeria" should forget restructuring. Restructuring is simply not for you. The Northerners hold all the cards and all the aces. Their voting bloc of over 60% puts the National Assembly in their hip pocket and as we all know, restructuring can only be done at the National Assembly. Anyone who wants restructuring, true federalism, resource control and fiscal independence had better start thinking about opting out of Nigeria. There are no two ways about it. Asari Dokubo said "only free people control their resources" This was the same choice the south faced in 1967 when the Northerners led by Gowon arbitrally broke the Aburi agreement, dissolved the 4 Regions and took away resource control. The south of Nigeria then had 3 Regions, the West, Midwest and Eastern Regions. Of these 3 Regions, the West and Midwest surrendered to the dictates of the North. Only Ojukwu and the Eastern Region refused to fall without a fight and fight they did. What happend in 1967 is happening 50 years later in 2017. The North have said no to restructuring. The question now is, do the SW/SE/SS accept it? Or will they fight for their independence like the Eastern Region once did? That is the question. 3 Likes |

dayod247:It baffles me on what ground/courage the north gets their boldness to dictate to others on how their destiny should be. A region that is a complete liability, parasiting on the South for survival yet has the guts to dictate to us and even give us what they feel like from our own resources! If only the South could unite once & for all and put these leeches where they belong! The more we continue to live with these guys, the more they continue to drag us in the mud while the rest of the world leaves us behind! Smh at this worthless entity called Nigeria. 1 Like |

it wouldn't have been bad if Northern military juntas had not altered Nigeria's structure we agreed upon at independence. More importantly,the northern military juntas forcibly annexed the oil resources of Niger Delta in particular and the south in general into a so called "federation account" and allocating the lion share of the money and projects done with the money to the north. it is very unfair to the resource owners. Nigeria must practice fiscal federalism for peace to reign. |

BlakKluKluxKlan:stop deceiving yourself. I can vividly remember your folks cried of marginalisation in the last administration. Besides you forming commando is not you have a say as it stands, it's because they SE/SS are not well treated, so you can loathe the SE. Remove SE from the equation you'll cry blood. So to put it straight you guys are being mischievious. Stop forming like you can do shit. You keep on selling out the entire south. Anyway I don't blame you lot, I blame SE for their stupidity. But mind you, any day they get their acts together, you'll understand the north gives no shit about the south. So enjoy while it lasts. Keep on cutting the nose of the south in your quest to spite your brother. That's why the north will roar at the south like there's no one in there. The day you guys (SE & SW) banter will put the whole south in perpetual bondage is the day your eye will clear. Una wehdone. 2 Likes |

''To suggest otherwise would lead to chaos and anarchy'' The northerners have everything to lose, so they are prepared to pay with their lives.. Its high time We the Yorubas started thinking like the Ibos and demand for proper restructuring or make everyone hold him lane. Why always the North? 1 Like |

Nigerians especially southerners should not even bother about what northern elders are planning. If they want us in nigeria, they must return nigeria to the good old days . Dictatorship by the north has been endured for too long. |

Restructuring of the Country is the only panacea that will bring about lasting peace and harmony to all ethnic-nationalities. The killings by Fulani herdsmen over other people's land will stop abruptly as State or Regional Police will be there to give adequate security to their people. Indeed, Restructuring is the only sure way to the INDUSTRIAL AND ECONOMIC ADVANCEMENTS Nigeria is clamouring for. |

somadinho10: Repeating these childish rants will not make it true. You do realize that historical alliances with the north has always been done by the osus? and Yorubas have always, and successfully played the opposition? At inception, Azikwe rejected the offer to form a government with Western and Eastern alliance. Instead, he chose to go with the North for the reward of du*b ceremonial president even though his political base was not even his homeland, but the progressive West - talk about the mother of all betrayals southern people have suffered. You do also realize that the restructuring that southern groups except the Biafra osus are clamoring for was due to the fact that then aguiyi ironsi destroyed regional government, and centralized the whole system, thereby playing into the hands of the northerners till date? Why blame Yorubas for this? You can't always eat you cake and still have it. If you don't believe this proverb, see how "successful" your Biafra campaign has been. Thank you. 2 Likes |

spaceshipz: No. Regionalism will take us back and cause more useless argument and costs of conferences which may in end liquidate Nigeria. The Military has given us 36 regions. It will be retrogressive to spend our constitutional time and debates to reduce regions to 6. The 36 States we have now are sufficient foundation ground zero from where we can together individually support ourselves to rooftops. |

The loooonatics from the yEast aka yEasterners are still mourning over GEJ's 2015 loss. When will the yEasterners learn that Yorubas acted first in their own interest? Hasnt Osinbajo been acting president? GEJ intended to annihilate Yorubas politically had he won a 2nd term. Thank God we booted him out. It's not like PMB is a better president but there is an Osinbajo... 3 Likes |
