AREWA AT THEIR TRICKS AGAIN RE: 1999 CONSTITUTION

Trick 1
The NASS is going to go about on yet another series of "Constitutional Amendments".
--The 1999 Constitution which was imposed and is a known forgery, is null and void, so cannot be amended. The soon-to-be Constitutional Amendment exercise is therefore just another pointless, corrupt exercise.


Trick 2
Recently, the Northern Elders Forum recommended a “Nigerian Peoples’ Conference On Review Of The Constitution” to improve “OUR Constitution”.
--They were just trying to be clever because the ethnic nationalities of the Middle Belt and South were not involved in making this Constitution so it is a lie to say “OUR”. It is not OUR Constitution! The 1999 Constitution was IMPOSED upon the people, and has been kept there by State power.


Trick 3
The same Northern Elders Forum also suggested that the outcome of that Nigerian Peoples’ Conference would be submitted to the NASS which would provide for a Referendum so that the changes would be added to the Constitution and give us a “new” Constitution.
--The honest and internationally accepted way forward is firstly to throw out the fraudulent 1999 Constitution then have a Transitional Government. The different Blocs in Nigeria of Oduduwa, Middle Belt, Arewa and Lower Niger (SE and SS together) under their right to Self-Determination will carry out their Referendums.
It is only IF the Blocs want to come together as a Union that the question of a new Constitution will arise.

To South and Middle Belt, we really need to think then act like adults at these perilous times. It is our children who will suffer the consequences of our actions and inactions.

Please forward to the people of the South and Middle Belt.

Doesn't matter whatever they want. I'm not interested in them. I'm interested in my people and in doing what's right. Having an Apartheid system in Nigeria is NOT right.

At Independence UK gave them power over Nigeria.

60 years have passed. Power has changed hands.

The 1999 Constitution is a forgery, it's a lie. Nobody can hold power over others with a lie. Not even Arewa.

The truth is setting us free!

You're 100% correct. Most people from Nigeria don't know that they don't have a constitution. The 1999 constitution still in use was handed down by rtd Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar. Is that what a democracy should be using? When you fail to think properly you and your children will suffer. Today the military is in charge of Mali after the resignation of the corrupt president and suspension of the constitution. They'll rule with their own edicts irrespective of how good it might be. After they hand over the government to an elected one, it's expected for the new government to bring back the old constitution or form a new one that will accommodate the realities of the times. This is just common sense. I wonder whether the people of Nigeria are bewitched not to know simple things.

The NASS AND THE 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATE ASSEMBLIES SHOULD WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY EITHER RATIFY JONATHAN'S NATIONAL CONFERENCE REPORT OR DEEXCLUSIVE THE EXCLUSIVE LIST OF THE 1999 MILITARY CONSTITUTION FORCED ON THEM.

When people of the south talk about Arewa influence I feel ashamed of them. Who does the constitution favour? It favours the majority. Any constitution that fails to favour the majority will collapse. If Nigerian constitution is not favouring our collective will and resolve and it has stood since 1999, then the majorities are coward from the South West, South East, South South and the so-called Middle Belt.
