In a major upset for the clamour for restructuring, the Senate Wednesday rejected the constitution alteration bill seeking the devolution of powers that would have moved some items from the bloated Exclusive List in the 1999 Constitution to the Concurrent List, which would have given more powers to the states.
The Land Use Act and affirmative action bills also suffered defeats in the upper legislative chamber during the electronic voting on the 33 bills presented to amend the 1999 Constitution.

Nigeria is a joke. Long live Biafra

Asking NASS that is dominated by Hausas to agree with restructuring is like asking them to dig their own grave.

Let me see the iddiotss that will criticize Nnamdi Kanu again.

If you go ahead with restructuring, the NASS will become irrelevant and this will affect the juice these NASS members are enjoying at the moment.

Don't expect restructuring, reorganization, devolution of powers, reorientation, or revocation of the current system of government from those legislooters.

It will take a revolutionary drive to cause the needed changes in Nigeria.

It seems like these idiots that call themselves senators are bent on pushing the anger level in this country to the extreme. Its alright.

goodmorning ohaneze
