Assuming there's no ulterior motive beclouding this, I agree with Sen Melaye completely. It's an important step to eschewing incompetence and making of wrong choices in virtually every aspect of our lives. Political appointments and choice of life partner stand out in this regard. |

Who state of origin epp? Only unrepentant bigots and tribalists will oppose the senator. The serious question is where do we want to be as a nation, as a country? If you understand the question properly you will understand that the answer begins with jettisoning this anachronistic state of origin nonsense and replacing it with the progressive place of birth or place of residence. Hopefully one day we will get there. |

Scrapping it is unnecessary. You can have the two side by side and it will be functional and effective. I do not support scrapping it. Leave it. |

So How come that Bleaching Bastard was able to contest Election in Both Lagos and Kogi state. And not only that, FALEKE is not still satisfied with being a rep for lagos and going to court to be Governor in Kogi state. Anyways I wish him happy wasting of money sha On this topic. After scrapping it, make sure you scrap of the minds of the people too. Me I know there are many places in Nigeria they will never vote a bastard of the land. |

demarc001: You know what, DINO has a point but I tell you it can't work in Nigeria because: 1. Nigeria is too multi tribal and tribal centric. 2. Nigeria is too multi lingual only God knows how many language we speak in this country. 3. Nigeria is not America, America is light years ahead of Nigeria. 4. True federalism is the solution to 75% of our problem. 1 Like 1 Share |

This is the most sensible thing the Hon will talk about. However I think that scrapping State of Origin should NOT be replaced with State of Residence. Just scrap the State thing and keep Nationality. Once a Nigerian, someone can reside anywhere on Nigerian soil. Within a period when a new generation of Nigerians take over the nation, tribalism would have been forgotten in Nigeria. |

The north cannot do without state of origin. So talk to your people. The rest of us don't have problem with scrapping it. |

[size=28pt] My advice to Mr Dino malaye There is something important in state of origin. This is what was well done . You can't have Hausa represent igbo people, igbos will not be happy. You cant have igbo represent hausa. What my malate is saying is that Hausa represent igbos. How possible is that. Even in the USA with an advanced democracy . State of origin is used. The nomination of some people by Buhari as minister . Who falsely declared theirs state of origin is not correct. The laws was written because of national security .. so I can tell you , why you have a break down in the system . You have a break down in the system because people are declaring false state of origin . If an igbo man declares false state in Hausa land. He will not understand the culture of the people , and this is what is bring crisis. A case of the notorious bola tinubu / Obasanjo who falsely declared his state of origin you can see the impart on the level of violence . In any society you go to you most always have respect for the people culture and believe . And know your limitation . It is wrong to displease majority for the sake of less than 1% of a population of a state. What you are saying is that the law should be written to favour 1%, over 99%. This is not fair.

Just what I was thinking. scrap it. No more state of origin. Let us welcome state of residence. It will go along way in doing two things. 1. Foster Unity by eliminating Ethnic diversity. 2. Introduction of the Merit system. Everybody understand the first. The only addition is, for political reason, there should be stated year of living in such area of residence before you can contest for election. Lagos is going down this way either they accept it or default. Time will speak MERIT SYSTEM. Individual will be selected base on what they can do. only few lapses will show. In reality, We are not unite. it doesn't show in the mind of Nigerians. This is one big option that can be adopted. Sen. Dino Melaye! I support this motion. Let's take Nigeria back to Glory Our dream as a Nation is all we have. |

The only sensible thing I've heard from this dude in years! You want us to unite as Nigerians, but if I want to go to school\ contest for an election where I reside at you'll tell I'm non Indigen? Nothing can be more backward! |

along4dem:You didn't catch his drift? That was the reason why when Ironsi promulgated Decree 34, Igbos were all smiles. Abolition of State of Origin will not happen because it has far reaching implications. There are usurpers who are fond of going to other people's land and when they are given an administrative role, their nepotistic colors come out in full bloom. 1 Like 1 Share |
