No time now for papers and positions and communique and press releases and dossiers. It's time for actualities - set down a time for a round table discussion (with national participation of all citizens through social media), use the 2014 conference recommendation as a template, reassess the recommendations and implement them NOW!

No time to waste!

Not surprised.. Coming from a lazy Nigerian... And u believe that's the best to go..using state A revenue to pay salaries of state B..don't u know that's the reason why this state governors become lazy,preferred sitting down squandering other states sweat. Through restructuring and federalism would wake them up,every state in Nigerian is blessed with resources, that would make them sit back, restructure on what would boost their revenue be it agriculture, mineral resources mining and co...
It's their duty to strategies on ways to yield fund to pay there workers,carry out developmental projects with fund from there states not waiting on fg to share allocations every month end

Good morning. Who told you I reside in UK? Anyway you see restructuring is a goodthing but nobody have come out till today to tell us the type of restructuring they want. Is it political restructuring or economic restructuring? People just kept on screaming restructure without mapping out solution(s) on how the country should/can be restructured.

Mind you, if the country should ever be restructured in the nearest future, the north will only support an economic restructured Nigeria(and some certain conditions will be set), anything other than that will be a NO NO for the north.

We won't allow/welcome any POLITICAL RESTRUCTURE to affect the unity the northern region enjoys.

grin grin The governors said: “It appears that demands framed by different groups in terms of political restructuring or true federalism can be met through adjustment in Nigeria’s federal system.

These Politicians are funny. Who is talking of adjustment when you can implement full true federalism or best return to 1963 constitution with regionalism.

Acknowledged. To In Tray.

To start with. Good first step. But they must bite the bullet and immediately remove from wherever it is written including in the psyche of some Nigerians this notion of 'one indivisible Nigeria'. Such cannot be written in stone but on paper with a pencil at all times. Nigeria should be a nation held together in a flux....under tension. All its constituents MUST CONSTANTLY, CONSCIOUSLY FEEL the stress of its diversity.

For a vehicle to run smoothly and successfully its tyres must be held tightly and under stress. The moment one of its nuts seeks to relax and loosen up, the whole wheel is in jeopardy. What we have is a Nigeria where everyone thinks everyone else runs at their expense. It is a toxic way to exist as a nation. So when each nut knows that to loosen up means to end the journey we will learn to respect one another and look at our diversity circumspectly.

Then we will be ready to start negotiations. The 'State of the Nation' will never be taken for granted anymore. This country is beyond a creation in any particular ones image. It should be for all.

Re: APC Governors Back True Federalism, Restructuring by Nobody: 9:05am On Jun 23, 2017
APC governors don't want to lose 2019 elections, hence they want to deceiving their zone bees with restructuring slogans to rig their votes/PVCs.

APC wants to waste another taxpayers money to organise another conference because the 2014 national conference were done by PDP. APC's political rivals.

If APC are talking about inclusiveness in their report above, why are they not implementing 2014 national confab Is it that APC don't heard of continuation of policies

Finally, any restructuring without restoration of Biafra is a waste of resources and energies.

Are you sure you really are aware of your problems and taking steps to curb them? If true, then you need Nigeria most. I know you are aware of the many sermons of Sanusi of recent on how the north will go under if Easterners are to withdraw their membership. It will take you another 100yrs to make any significant improvement from where you are now if things should fall apart completely. My advice is for you to start from restructuring your repressive religious beliefs.

Civil disobedience, agitation and unrest has suddenly increased in the land - coupled with the comedy show currently going on in the presidency and their pathetic maladministration so far especially on the economy.

"Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world ..."

- W.B. Yeats | The Second Coming


Turning and turning in the widening gyre*(agitations, ultimatums, nairaland e-battles, Osinbajo's meetings with ethnic leaders, conferences and calls for restructuring etc)

*The falcon cannot hear the falconer*(our Leaders do not hear our real cries, they are out of touch and blasé)

*Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold*(where is Buhari? Igbos cry the zoo must fall, give us Biafra, the Federal government is too bogus etc)
*Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world*(threat of war, unrest, hate, division, poverty, crime, recession, lack of focus by the government)

*The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere*(war will surely open the floodgates of blood, mayhem and destruction and devastation will be mercilessly unleashed upon all)

*The ceremony of innocence is drowned*(just like the first war in which Nigeria's innocence was violated so shall this one further explode the little of it that remains, people are wiser now too, no ethnic group will be used as proxies to fight and promote the agenda of another group, the children of today will be tainted by the stains of war)

*The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity*(those who call for a solution to the problem, who advocate for peace and unity are mocked and despised while those who advocate hatred are the heroes today, the charlatans and quacks and political jobbers and self seeking wannabes are the ones who are loved and adored, those who appeal to the basest, low and destructive instincts in man, those who Bay for blood and seek to ensure our collective immolation are the ones being cheered on and on)


The Second Coming(second coming of Biafra?) is the poem written by the Irish Poet W.B Yeats and it was from the third line of the poem that Achebe got the title of his classic Novel 'Things Fall Apart'

You are wrong man, that guy, Kanu, and his group wants Biafra, not restructuring. Yoruba leaders, especially the Progressives and the so called Awoists have always wanted this and they have been vocal about it because they have always wanted things to go back to the good Awolowo days.

The technicalities and the politics involved in the restructuring is what the FG has not figured out as to whether it is viable or not, maybe for their selfish interests, I do not know.

So you are advised to direct your hatred and disappointments appropriately and stop being mischievous.

Well I will tell you again, the north is not afraid of a restructured Nigeria, not yesterday not today and certainly it won't be tomorrow. Like heck, the northerners were even the first people that glamoured for Nigeria to be restructured along economic and political lines after the unfortunate civil war. And if we should even go back around the 1950s, the north never believed in Nigeria as a sovereignty nation. We were forced into Nigeria by the southerners(is a common knowledge).

So saying/thinking the north doesn't want restructuring is laughable. What the north is saying is that, it won't allow itself to be shortchanged through some "very mischievous restructuring". Table it out, tell us how you want Nigeria to be restructed and stop over simplifying the characters of the northerners. Nobody is a fool.


And please I DON'T reside in UK..

Come, to the emboldened 1, Restructuring means, altering a structure! it's when a particular sector of a societal structure is dysfunctional, while others are functioning well, then you can pinpoint. Now, the whole structure is toxic to reasonable living, we need to restructure all sectors.
>>> To the emboldened 2, This is the main reason person like me is sick of your resistance to good development. Any intelligent person can really understand your mind and the mistake of amalgamation in the first place. We're just different sociology species that can't live mutually.
>>> The rest after the emboldened no 3 is just parenthesis, it shows you're not interested in development but leadership and CONFLICT is likely going to be the means.
