It's NOT an assumption. Nigeria has done "restructuring" before. Restructuring is just a fancy way of saying let's return Nigeria back to the 1930's era of regional government but how did that work out? In-fighting, politicking, jealousy and bitterness and a push to a skewed form of federalism that got us to the shithole we are in today. Don't you get it? Some zones believe they have economic disadvantage, they have programmed their minds already that they don't have anything to offer. They can ONLY TAKE from other zones but have close to nothing to give back. So the sharing formula that zones that have should control their resources 100% and drop something at the center, will amount to that while others are dropping, some others have nothing to drop; AND amounts to some zones are making huge development and some zones are stagnant or retrogressive and this will drive population from stagnant zones towards the viable zones and will hinder the progress of those zones as their public infrastructure and economic potential are sucked through overpopulation because now the government of those viable areas have to cater for a huge population of people from other zones whether they like it or not, or whether they have extra provision for that or not etc. Lagos is a good example of this reality. While those zones that bring nothing or close to nothing to the center continue scheming and politicking and lobbying to crumble the system until the kind of federalism we are practicing today re-emerges, either by way of coup or war etc. And it will lead us back to 1960 all over again. So restructuring is a DEAD END and a wonder wheel for a lab rat to continuing wasting away as it runs for nothing. Independent countries is the way to go. You control your resources, you control your population, you control the influx of people that can come in (aka visa requirements), you control your borders, you control your government (no outside country can come carry out coup to rule your country to steal or access your resources)..... you control your destiny! SIMPLE.

I understand perfectly
But one should use his to tongue to count their teeth.
Come what may, Nigeria may not be better off they split. Nigeria can still work, just that some greedy people have blindfolded us from the fact.
We are just a country with 200m inhabitants.
We can learn from other countries that are more populous than us

You are making a big mistake, no northerners include Atiku and Tambowa want restructuring. Restructuring is not a party issue but ethnic issue.

Is good governance too an ethnic issue? Atiku and tambowal won't want restructuring because it will stop the national cake from coming to their pockets and not because it will make their ethnicity inferior on the contrary restructuring will make every ethnic group stand out, put their best to build their region except if you are telling me that there are more parasite than productive ethnic groups.

Lies. I heard Yorubas are joining them on that day. They want Oduduwa Republic

Until they face army, we will know how serious they are.

Yes APC promised but PDP spent billions on national conferences without implement any recommendations.

Skynet45:

Shut the fvck up fool. Aboki's are dragging this nation backwards. SW needs to be free from u freeloader parasites illiterates. That's why a ssce holder like buhari is leading us. I hope Nigeria will split so u guys will be like your brothers Niger. Underdeveloped poverty capital of nigeria.

What hold u from developing now? u always accuse other regions for ur leadership failure while the region u're suspecting of holding u bck are fast developing than u! Keep living in delusional deception that u're feed with, wake up to the reality. I knw u can deny it here but deep down ur mind u knw the truth.
