All Resources, sourcing and application, should go to the States too so they can uniformly contribute say ten percentage of each State Resources to run the FG for the balance of the Responsibilities left for it.

Lol that's not happening. Both entities have taxing authority. The FG will collect their portion abd state will do theirs. It would be stupid for anyone to wait on the other to fund it. It didnt work for the United States under the failed articles of confederation. It was replaced with the current constitution for that reason.

In the US for example both Federal and state government can collect income taxes. If you live in California for example you'll pay both enties. It's that easy.

They should futher reduce federal power by eliminating the land use act and exclusive ownership of all minerals. Individuals should own their own the land and minerals associated with it. If state needs land they acquire it via the eminent domain.
dude you want them stripped of almost everything valuable in the economy shocked

No I didn't. It would actually make these assets more valuable in the long term.

In the name of Jesus, like the days of John G. Lake, let the healing fountains be opened Almighty Father.
As Moses lifted up the serpent so must the son of man be lifted up for healing and deliverance so says the scriptures, the son of man is lifted up already, let their be total healing across the earth in Jesus name. Amen.

The exclusive list are items only the Federal legislature can make laws on. The concurrent list are items both state and federal legislature can make laws on. Moving an item exclusive to concurrent gives more power to the states. If this bill were to pass state assemblies could pass their own holiday's without federal input.
nice explanation. God bless

If not for politics the house of Assembly can change this country through the unbundling of this exclusive list and if PMB refuses to sign they should go ahead to veto it.

If state can distribute power, I tell you things will go well. Imagine RCCG camp generating their Power.

Maybe there's still hope; but the present regime has squandered their goodwill and I know very few people still believe them or believe in them.

The bitter truth is that they will still win next election

Moving police from exclusive to concurrent list without creation of state police?
How does it work?
More explanation from u guys pls cos I don't know much about government policies.
Re: Reps Want Police, Mining, Power Generation To Leave Exclusive List by mmsen: 3:36pm On Mar 19, 2020
That exclusive list is a barrier to progress in Nigeria.

The whole thing needs to be reconsidered and scaled all the way back.

If the north wants to run their Sharia nonsense, let them

But let the south keep the proceeds of their VAT, their oil revenue, their coal and their ingenuity.

If policing is moved to concurrent list states can establish them without federal permission.

I hope this scales through quickly. Most the items of the exclusive list are unnecessary. The federal government should be pragmatic and reduce their burden. Police and prisons should both be put in concurrent list together. Let the states pay to house the inmates.



Moving mining from the exclusive list would include oil and gas. They're both covered by the same section of constitution. Besides the constitutional amendment would never pass without including it.

Make sure you contact your representative to support this bill.

It wouldn't make difference in reality? The FG will still eat your taxes and have regulatory power. Btw it shouldn't be regionally or state owned. It should be owned by the entity that purchased said mineral rights or whoever already owns said land. What are your thoughts on the land ownership vs occupancy?



Let them make the changes first and let's see!

I don't support states having that right. Power should devolve to the respective ethnic nations or homogeneous local government areas. Anything short of that is outsourcing federal problems to the state level.
