merry02: My question is if the North for me its not APC but the north (AREWA) that's condemning the confab move then I ask what is their recommendation to create a balance in the system which is what the confab strongly projected! If this is not either of two things will happen -the north will continue to want to suppress other regions in order not for the confab recommendation to actualise or people will get really fed-up and there will be lots of problem in the system in the future. If the confab is not implemented even fighting corruption will remain a big issue 3 Likes |

Chiaka: And who told u that it's only the north condemning it? Elements in the West also condemns it. Don't be deceived by these afenifere lot. They are so inconsequential and I doubt if they have followers. APC, being a NATIONAL party condemns it and that's what matters. The rejection cut across all zones. 2 Likes |

Demdem: This is what was said and the excuse for organizing another National conference under Jonathan Era "Gbonigi said that the 2005 national conference was not people’s conference as it did not discuss the peculiar needs and desires of various ethnic nationalities that made up Nigeria. He said Nigerians would this time around have what he described as a “people’s conference” that would come up with “peoples decision.” He said, “We are going to have a people’s conference that will come up with the people’s decision. We are going to have a conference that knows and understands one another. This conference will respect the peoples’ culture.” Clark also said, “The 2005 national conference was not based on the Will and representations of the people of Nigeria. Former President Obasanjo and the governors handpicked the delegates. The 2005 national conference was not the desire of the people of Nigeria. “Under the planned national conference, there would be no second class citizen. This conference would be conducted based on the equality of all Nigerians.” 1 Like |

Demdem: Don't let your hate for Jonathan kill you o! how did Jonathan repeat OBJ's experiment when these was given as the excuse to conduct another NC in Jonathans Era "Gbonigi said that the 2005 national conference was not people’s conference as it did not discuss the peculiar needs and desires of various ethnic nationalities that made up Nigeria. He said Nigerians would this time around have what he described as a “people’s conference” that would come up with “peoples decision.” He said, “We are going to have a people’s conference that will come up with the people’s decision.

Chiaka: Am sorry but both Gbonigi and clark explanation doesn't fly and the conference didnt obviously take everyone along. They are both playing with words. We are talking of a conference that has a no-go area topics how will u reconcile their statements with this singular reason. Let me tell u this and i will be straight to the point.............. 1) we need a conference that will determine if we Nigerians trully want to be together or not. 2) If No, the process of our disintegration. 3) If Yes, the basis for our togetherness 4) A proper;y constituted conference whose decisions wont be subjected to the NASS (that means it must be SNC) Whatever imbalance u are afraid of now will be sorted out there and then. the NC never assured that for ur info. The moment Jonah-daft made it a no go area, i knew it was just another waste sojourn like OBjs. 8 Likes |

Chiaka: why do u want to continue to build on a faulty foundation? why do we like deceiving ourselves in this country? Postponing the evil days indefinately. we have never for once had that opportunity to discuss the BASIS OF OUR TOGETHERNESS and u expect imbalance in the political sphere to end eh? i dont share ur thoughts. 4 Likes |

merry02: dont be silly, u didnt answer because u simply dont have anything to say. OBJ organised a NC and Jonah-daft also organised another NC. in both instances, some sections were happy with the outcome of each one while some arent. what ignorance are u talking about? so far u made no point. or u think since one section of the country is happy with it then it should be adopted right? how selfish. |

merry02: Why are you asking self-answered question? Did you read the report at all? Do you pray to have a relative who will buy a land, build a foundation, erect the building but fail to put a finishing touches to it despite having enough resources to do so till the end of his life? If you have problem when it comes to comprehension, the bolded part carved out from the article could be of help- “President Jonathan had ample opportunity to implement some of the policy issues or even forward some of the recommendations that require legal and constitutional amendments to the National Assembly, but did not do so" God bless Nigeria. 4 Likes 1 Share |

The CONFAB restructured Nigeria politically in a democratic method to enable equitable political representation between old north and south of Nigeria.. Northern soldiers restructured Nigeria through military fiat. The 19 states and Abuja created by northern soldiers in the once one northern region now gives north overwhelming political representation, against the scanty political representation of the south owing to only 17 states created in the once two region south of Nigeria. The stance of Arewa on the conference finally puts paid to the belief in some quarters that Arewa believes rest of Nigeria is an estate of Arewa. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Spybradd: This has always been my position however i have a bad news for u. I dont expect an "Abokii" president will be the one to constitute such confab. It can only be from a southern President. We will continue to patch whatever we have currently. Jonah-daft had the oppurtunity, he blew it away. 5 Likes |

phyllosilicate: You could have made your point without bringing Igbo into it, Mr. "south-south man" The conference in addition to having reps from geo-political zones, also had reps from ethnic nationalities. it will benefit you the more to go back and read the criteria for selection of delegates to that confab, rather than exhibiting your learned ignorance here in the name of equity. 3 Likes |
