You are calling Professors, doctors, architects all jobless? Are you sane?

You have to pity him. His case is that of mad man in market square calling those who came to market to exchange their merchandise mad people.

zendy:



Look at someone who said that the IPOB route leads no where but went on to write absolute nonsense. How will Yoruba representstives bring about restructuring? It does not matter how many times they raise the issue on the floor of the national assembly, they will never have the numbers to vote it into law.

Infact, even if the entire representatives of the SW/SE/SS in the national assembly came together, they still would not have the two thirds majority needed to vote a constitutional issue such as restructuring into law.

Restructuring is mainly a Southern Nigeria thing which is opposed by the North, and they have more than enough reps to vote against it.

At least with Nnamdi Kanu, the world saw agitation, massmobilisation, support and so on. Thats what gets result.

This talk of restructuring is a waste of time. If you want something in Nigeria, you have to agitate for it like IPOB or just forget it

no need for insults, ok.....
now agitation, mass mobilisation, international support are momentum that must be galvanised into a specific direction....
IPOB did well with the above, but at that critical moment when strategic thinking was needed, they messed up big time.....
They shunned much needed collaborative effort, instead created an avenue for enemy within and made themselves vulnerable to attacks.....
In case u don't know, it was the ibo leaders that called on buhari and his goons to get rid of Nnamdi Kanu....
When it comes to agitiation against established status quo, u don't take unilateral actions all the way....
else all your efforts become fruitless....
ask the Catalonian secessionist leaders......
ask the never ending brexit leaders.....
if not for buhari's unrepentant bigotry tendencies, IPOB would have been history....
I already spoken about the Yoruba leaders, so I don't need to repeat myself....

Ojukwu and awolowo comes to mind
1966
Here we are 52 years later
Still licking the fulanis ars*
All other ethnic nationalities really need to wake up
Imagine all security appaeratik of our dear nation
All
All northerners
God save us all

MIPNIG:
Our children online. Please listen to your elders. Our nation is under siege.
Read that newspaper content, the elders are worried about the Northern sleeping cells in the south west hiding under OKADA RIDERS IN LAGOS and otherr SOCIETIES.

You are warned. You should leave the internet and be watchful. It is worthy of concern because the OKADA RIDERS AND KEKE RIDERS are a lot. The day they wake up to their calling, it may be too late.

Today it is the middle belt, tomorrow it may be the south west or a full blown take over of the south south and south east.

what exactly are you advocating for?
Is the south tired of beefing each other?
When Nzeogwu took action,nzeogwu and ojukwu became the problem.
The southwest and middlebelt helped enthrone the hausafulani and they are good in maintaining their advantage.
It is TOO LATE.
Let them infiltrate every region.
Whenever its time,we shall dance.
Those that can't survive the dance will automatically drop while those that survived would move on.

Dont mind them.This is the difference between the Yoruba's and the Ibo's. when the Yoruba's decide it is usually collective.this stems from their recognize leaders to the grassroots .this usually ensures that the decision is collective regardless of whom you are.The difference is that the Hausa's this time will listen as against the ipob ranting.
Clear way for articulate people.This is what the Fulani are actually afraid,they know population for population the Yoruba have it, international exposure to galvanize their thoughts they got it. Watch the trend on restructuring this time their body odour will change

Restructuring will kill the evil agenda.

You must hardly use your thinking faculty if you think it isn't joblessness that would push grown men to advertising restructuring instead of approaching their representatives to push such an agenda or do they think their advert will scared the populace into submission? Gerrarahere if you are not interested in reasoning.

Scare? You believe this is an attempt to scare anyone? No wonder Kanu and his ipob morons failed miserably.
Ibo leaders better put on their thinking caps.

yanabasee:


For how long will you keep tasting people to get a good president, by voting them out?

Restructuring is the way out...

Like you have stated crystally, We have so much lip work than actions from our politicians....

The President isn't the only elected official in the federal government.

That is NL for you. a times yould wonder how ppl reason here.

They have no respect for anyone.

More reason why children section is needed on NL.

Many are youths with little or no home training.

Imaging someone calling all these intellectuals Jobless. People that have better lives than all his generation all together.

smh

nextstep:


Uh huh... and none of them will be willing to take up arms and lose their lives to defend this secession they are planning. Did they consult with the millions of people who will die (due to starvation, violence, illness) before making this irresponsible advert? Will they volunteer their own children to fight for the cause, or will they put them aboard planes for the safety of someplace abroad?

How long will our leaders at various levels continue to stoke the embers of violence from the comfort of their air-conditioned homes, and in some cases, from the safety of some European city?

And it's even worse: a Yoruba federation will find soon itself fighting for supremacy, just as Yorubaland was in the midst of a long period of civil war from 1830s to 1886.

The main thrust of the article is unemployment. Why not channel all the monies from these so-called leaders into creating factories and opportunities in Yorubaland? Is restructuring or secession going to automatically provide jobs and create industries? Can people from Yorubaland not sacrifice and not import foreign things (starting with rice, tin tomato), and instead promote locally-produced goods, no matter the quality? (at least to start). Is restructuring or secession going to automatically provide jobs and create industries? What about all the diaspora? Can't leaders in Yorubaland create special zones/estates for returnees to come and contribute in safety?

Let's even assume that the process will be entirely peaceful, and we can sidestep the years of violence and needless deaths, the funds to build/rent embassies, mint new currency, establish/convert parastatals, etc. to basically start a new government from scratch... could that not create a few really big factories to provide employment? Could that not provide loans to farmers to improve their yields? Could that not establish world class hospitals and research companies?

We like to howl restructuring and breakup far too often, because we don't really think through all the pluses and minuses. Even the money for this advert could have been better spent as grants to 10 young men/women to start a few garri-processing SME.

What are you saying!
Imaging you understanding.

Is anything bad with restructuring?
Since u don't have problem with the current system, why are y having problem with restructuring?
Are you scared?
Are you afraid?

Why can't you allow people to organize themselves the manner that suit them?

For your info; We can never be one. We can only try and understand how we can leave together.
And 'restructuring' is the best option for us base on differences.

AnonyNymous:

The President isn't the only elected official in the federal government.

Exactly, reasons why he can't approve for restructuring by himself....

Constitutionally, the restructuring moves must begin at NASS...

IPOB were just holding rallies, they hadnt even started real agitation yet. What happend to IPOB was just state sponsored terrorism against an unarmed people by a dictatorial government.

The Government has now become a national laughing stock for attacking and proscribing and unarmed group like IPOB who have not killed anyone, but or offering cattle colonies to Fulani killers.

I still stand that anyone who wants anything has to agitate like IPOB. Take to the streets and vent your frustration using your right of freedom of expression with peaceful protest.

Anyone waiting for the national assembly is wasting their time

oduastates:
All those talking about balls.
If we decide to go all in and secede , just watch as we take down the evil foundations on which Nigeria is built ,one brick at a time .

you can only say that because the southeast are not interested in the zoo.
If southeast is interested in the Nigeria project and the north is also interested,the SOUTHWEST CAN'T LEAVE

You think you know but you don't.

What is the constitution.
The Nigerian constitution is simply Decree 63 of 1999.

The question is by what authority did the decreer decree. ?
By force which means there is always room for Decree 64 etc

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
CONEHEADS EYES DON CLEAR

Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB were saying the same thing for past few years.
No.
Kanu has been calling for Biafra and this is an illegality the Yorubas won't be yoked with.

Your idea is that war is the only way out you have a one track mind.
If we decide to go we will convince you to do send off party for us. Not everything is gragra or quarrel.
Once Yoruba sayGoodnight then that's it you folk will start thinking of what gifts to give us

Yoloba raaaaaonu ooooooo!

AfonjaConehead:
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

CONEHEADS EYES DON CLEAR

The call for restructuring started long before Kanu and ipob. Besides, Kanu never mentioned restructuring once. He only wanted to kill people who are not ibos.

emmanuelpopson:
Restructuring can only be done by the NASS when 2/3 of the elected people agreed to..then we will have total overhaul of this system of govt...but its easier said than done...unless we have someone who is ready to lay down his life to actualize this.. kos the northern elites/oligarchies will not want this to happen..they feast on the south and dominate all spheres of Nigeria as a whole...

my brother believe me this can not work 2/3 of NASS. In the first place how many Southerner representative were there when this amendment was writing, was it amended through NASS? These are the questions they should give us the answer. All this suppose to be addressed since 1999 but because we were afraid for army not to come back that was the reason way everybody keep quite but as thing is going on now we don’t have option than everybody should come on round table to address the issue which we are referring to now as restructure. Thus is everybody duty is we really mean well for this country to talk about it shout about it and discuss about it #NO RESTRUCTURENOELECTION2019

IF CONEHEADS SEE JUST ONE SOLDIER NOW OR HEAR THE SUDDEN SOUND OF A BURST CAR TYRE OR BANGER..

Cretaceous:
Why sultan should be dictating to Yoruba Muslims when and when not sight the moon, when and when not to fast still amuses me up till now.
Low self esteem I guess.

Simple, here is how it works. The Sultan of Sokoto is just a mere mouthpiece, his duty is to report the sighting of the moon to the general public. If he fails to do so, it wouldn't change anything as everyone with eyes can sight moon on his own. Most Muslims don't even know he does that. No one waits for anyone to do the sighting for them, once it is sighted in a particular state or country u can comfortably calculate the time difference and select correctly when to start or end fasting.

And 'restructuring' is the best option for us base on differences.

I don't have anything against restructuring. What I'm against is this threat of "restructure or we break apart". OK, so the Federal Government refuses to restructure (based on it's interpretation and responsibility to the existing Constitution). Then what? Violence? Those seem to be the only options presented by "restructure or we leave".

I'm not saying people don't have a right to self-determination, but those who are clamoring for it are also calling for the other things that have historically come with political upheaval... and cynically, I'm pointing out that those who signed these papers won't be the ones bearing arms, suffering the loss of children, being killed or starving. More to the point, were the signatories elected/chosen by the masses to represent them and force them into something? You'll find that most Nigerians, no matter where, just want opportunities to thrive, no matter the country they happen to be in. Restructuring, in and of itself will not answer their prayers: the LGA chairmen, governors, reps, senators from Yorubaland today, what have they done to address unemployment in a serious, systematic fashion? How will things be different when it's these same people who will hold office in a restructured country?

I've also mentioned that there was a long civil war in Yorubaland from 1830's to 1886, (that helped weaken it for colonial takeover), which should caution those who think that Oduduwa Republic will suddenly be the best place on Earth. Recent conflicts and historical slights between (for example) Ekiti people and Ondo people illustrate that it won't be a bed of roses either. In other words: there's really no point in restructuring because the underlying problems are still there: poverty/unemployment.

I'm also noting that there are far better ways to provide employment opportunities than restructuring (since employment is the main thrust of the advert), and that even after restructuring, the monies spent on that effort could have been better spent employing people, today.

Did you see the ad on page 25 of Punch newspapers today? If you didn't, you need to.

Yorubas are calling for Restructuring before 2019 elections or they would leave the Federation.
Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB were saying the same thing for past few years.

Glad SW intellectuals are gradually standing up and please check the number of Professors, Doctors, Architects, SANs, Pastors etc that signed the advert.

why now they must wait let me attained to the position of a prof before anything ,who do thy want to cheat me has lie.

He said Biafra or death
