PapaBrowne:
To be fair, the are correct!

That is one huge funny problem with Nigeria. We just like rhetoric. That's how people voted in APC without asking what they meant by change.

We are screaming restructuring without any group coming out with a concise study on how we should go about it.

I support restructuring. Maybe I should try come out with a document on how we should restructure. Infact, I would.

You might want to check out the 2014 Confab report. The fact is that the North will never support restructuring unless the South unites in giving an ultimatum of "restructure or secession".

stfu. how are u sure your pusy is washed this morning. so you think Lagos can survive alone without other ethnic groups coming to live in here..
are u a student of history self..where does the lagosian you claim to be migrated from?? they are .migrant from Oyo,ijebu,osun and other Yoruba speaking States... you think Lagos island is the real Lagos.... the aworis and eguns are the real owners of the land you call Lagos...you need to go for historical study and be tutored well in this case.. I'm a Yoruba and mind you...when Oduduwa republic or South west is created out of Nigeria, Ibadan will be the capital city but Lagos will just be economic hub...get your facts before coming to a public forum to spew thrash...
Can't you see that other yorubas are disgracing us and making the world laugh at us.i don't understand how ibadan people expecially fell not bathing and smelling like chiken shit.i am tired of giving them advice or is it ogun and osun,pls I don't want my children to be used for rituals.

It's obvious some people want the country to remain the way it is at the expense of others. No wonder whenever they hear restructuring, secession, or resource control they become apprehensive. We cannot continue like this.

ACF is covertly expressing their disdain for restructuring because the status quo gives them advantage. I laugh at people suggesting constitutional ammendment in favour of restructuring in a house and Senate dominated by the north. It will be a naive optimism to think such, knowing that such a goal can never be achieved through a constitutional means.

Why are we reluctant about this?
What are we afraid of?
Hunger in the absence of federal allocation from oil revenue?
Are we, Yorubas, so mentally lazy that we cannot survive without federal allocation?


Lagos needs federal allocation but their people will never accept that fact. They keep thinking all D state's money comes from task. I just dey laugh.

I keep telling people shouting 'restructuring' that it will never happen.The core North is the greatest beneficiary of the status quo.They would rather die than give in to changing it.Check the numbers of L.G.As in the North compared to those in the south.The population figure of the North(for instance Kano is more 'populous' than Lagos).The number of legislators from the North etc.

Unfortunately to change the constitution the motion needs to be passed into law by majority of the legislators.As long as resources are shared according to population density and number of L.G.As,the north would never agree to restructuring.

Good luck to the proponents of restructuring,but the North I know would rather secede than give in to restructuring.


I get ur point, but saying it will NEVER happen is what I don't understand. I will like it if say it will be difficult rather than saying it will NEVER happen.

Can someone define Nigeria? This is a country formed by accident, framed with pride and cemented with patriotism. For once let us all admit this definition and focus on restructuring. However, I am sure the HALUSA/ Fulani animals wont let this happen as they know it wont favour them and vacate their superiority over other ethnic groups.

I laugh hard whenever I see people like Orji Uzo Kalu and likes calling for restructure without asking themselves which house will let that happen, is it the senate filled Hausa's or Reps filled Hausa's?? Believe it or not, Nigeria was designed to favour the north and anything that doesn't benefit them won't see the light of the day. Someone once said that Nigeria Is A Geographical Expression Bonded Together By Oil and I think that person isn't far from the truth at all..



NB: Will there be anything like Nigeria if north happens to be that goose that lays the golden egg?? #justthinking
Don't just think,but try 2 think straight and properly too. The North once laid the golden egg; this country once survived on agriculture (go read ur history books) did they shout or clamour 4 disintegration? We once had a system of governance where every1 was carried along (according 2 history books) until those nonentities struck and brought their unitary system of government.

It is unfortunate the way Hausas caged Nigeria using their military might even to the point of moving the capital to their region, with the same military might they created more states and LGAs in their region for their selfish interest.

Bro it will never happen.Unless 'restructuring' is done leaving the main points like fiscal federasm;resource control;confederation;quota system.

Just like the way the PIB bill was 'amended' to accommodate states that have oil facilities and where pipeline passes as host communities.

Anybody thinking otherwise is either not aware of the power balance in Nigeria or being mischievous .

The North and their military leaders have been the main beneficiaries of Nzeogwu's blunder and Ironsi's Unitary Government mistake. And they keep blaming all the Igbos. Did the Igbos have a meeting to plan the coup of 1966? Never. It was purely a military affair. They removed Ironsi BUT built on his mistake. And here we are.
We must go back to the pre military era with the SIX GEOPOLITICAL ZONES as the federating units. With this, we still have ONE NIGERIA and, believe me, the agitation for Biafra and Niger Delta will cease.
Remember the Aburi Accord? It's time we revisit that document because if it was implemented, there would have been no Biafra! Yes?
We are still under Military rule through the Constitution they imposed on us which favours a section of the country more than the others.
Don't you think that the Quota System is one area that is outrageous and needs serious restructuring? Which progressive countries ever practise such a system which sacrifices MERIT for the sake of the "disadvantaged areas".
When we restructure, we will have the present SIX GEOPOLITICAL ZONES as the federating units --Biafra State, Oduduwa State, SS State ( or whatever they choose to answer), Arewa East , Central and West States as the six federal units.
The greatest achievement of the present National Assembly will be to amend our Constitution to include a REFERENDUM to be attended by these zones as the delegates.
But the problem is : Will the present politicians like the governors and the legislators let go of their 'kingdoms' for the new structure?
Yes they can : If they mean well for the country.
The present foundation/constitution is faulty and lopsided and is already shaking. It's better to pull it down and lay a very solid foundation/constitution where EQUITY and JUSTICE will be the building blocks.
i think i prefer restructuring along state line instead of regional lines. The state should be made to be more autonomous by controlling their resources, create state police and take over some of the federal infrastructure like the federal roads.

I'm also one of those that are scared of this restructuring, due to the corrupt nature of the politicians.
