Both parties promise restructuring like it's a simple executive act where the president just issues an order and gbam, restructuring happens.

The bitter truth about restructuring is, it is a legislative process that will involve both the Senate and House of Assembly passing the bill. The bill has to be signed by a president and possibly sent to the states for ratification. It's essentially a constitutional amendment which is politically difficult given the divergent interests.

As long as Northern legislators and states are not supporting restructuring, it is always going to be a pipe dream.

Wake up people. No president or single party has the power to restructure unless you get consensus around the country.

What would be restructed and how, hasn't been spelt out clearly

Is either restructuring or disintegration. Nigeria is so divided tha equity and transparency died many years ago and can't be resurrected. Nothing is working out positively because of nepotistic mindedness in sharing and tribal sentiments by them who dominated the leadership of this country.

Even when it's defined. You'll need those legislators to pass it through committee votes and then take the general vote in each house and harmonize it. And this is hoping APC and PDP politicians act together. I doubt it will ever see the light of the day. Anybody voting a president in based on the promise of restructuring is dreaming

For either to come peacefully, you'll need a buy-in from majority of the country. We all know how northerners feel about it.

And concurrence in at least 27 state house of assembly out of the 36. Similar to adding referendum clause it is nearly impossible.... But then I hate to dash peoples hope, who knows atiku has a magic wand

I mean. The chances of that happening is like winning the lottery.

People can vote for Atiku based on his economic policies and governing philosophy, but don't expect any fulfillment of restructuring. That ain't happening. He simply lacks the power to do it.

The current system is designed for their favour.
