Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is calling for a deeper understanding of the current restructuring debate in the country, and supports the idea of having State Police in the country accordingly to his spokesman, Mr. Laolu Akande. Akande said there are have been different interpretations, meanings and purposes to which the restructuring debate is being put to. http://saharareporters.com/2016/07/12/vp-osinbajo-calls-deepened-debate-restructuring-supports-state-police |

I saw d programme live n wat the Vice president explained is dat some people who are calling for restructuring are not making it clear wat they meant, cos wat some people want is the breaking of Nigeria, while some want us to go back to regional government, some want fiscal federalism, while some want rotational presidency along the 6 geo-political zones. So he said he is in support of restructuring our country by finding solutions to our different problems through legislation n government efforts but he doesn't support dos calls dat we need to go in d line of adopting a new system. 3 Likes |

Oksman: I wish you were privileged to listen to the VP himself you on TVC programme on this issues and other things he commented on you would have appreciated what he said. Unfortunately, our press media would always push forward sentimental headline that will aid their sales. One thing that stroke me most, which was never reported was the FG views on the confab 2014 report, contrary to what has being in the public domain. Secondly, the VP fanatically support fiscal and administrative restructuring but not along ethnic or tribal lines. I think that the press media should be factual in their publication. 3 Likes |

Hmmmm..... The prof would probably need to be schooled by Senator Okorunmu and Pastor Tunde Bakare Has he looked at the wisdom of the proponents of "Nigeria Restructuring ". Late Pa Anthony Enahoro, Late NADECO ace, Abraham Adesanya and others. The current Nigeria is governed by a Constitution drafted by the Military boys such that a technical absolute power resides with the executive. All control of resources, all appointments, all authority,etc, etc, technically speaking comes from the executive It stripes each state + regions of the capabilities to evolve and develop and thus become subservient to the centre. Worst still is the denial that we are one Nigeria, which has never been the case and can never be with a style of government where the center rules all. The sure way out is to allow what the founding fathers of Nigeria had created, a federal system which recognised the different components that made up Nigeria and thus gave autonomy, resource control to the then regional government. And this worked perfectly well until the military boys spoiled everything with a useless constitution that has bedevilled us to this day. Nigeria surely needs to be restructured by the following. .. 1. Devolve power to the states or region 2. Give back resource control to their owners and see if resource management will not be at its zenith 3. Allow for state police 4. Restore true fiscal federalism All these were addressed to some reasonable length at the 2014 confab. Start from there This is not a PDP vs APC thing. This is the only project that can keep Nigeria as a working country QED....... 1 Like |

I disagree with the professor. His thrust is bringing power closer to the people and removing ethnicity so we all feel as one. His daughters are matured for marriage. He should lead us with examples on how to build unity by marrying one of them off to Hausa and the other to Igbo. These leaders are not touched by the same level of hardship we face and therefore speak about Nigeria unity as if it will happen in line with their misplaced ideals. What a rubbish, Osinbajo should go and sit down somewhere. If he went ten times, as Attorney General of Lagos, the most influential state in the nation, to influence Supreme Court to favor an agenda for State Police and he could not get it.....what makes this man thinks he can build an ethnic neutral society in preference to regionalism? This is nonsense! 1 Like |

Do you even understand a single thing from what he has said? There's never where he said Nigeria is better left this way...he said Nigeria will always need restructruing, re-engineering. And there's no need to go back to regional government.So how's that what you interpreted. **** TheFreeOne: |
