Op, if Nigeria restructures back to 1957 or 1963 constitution then we are fine. Refusal to do that is what has repeatedly fired up agitation since 1966 and till now.

Yes, this protest can bring about a restructure. It can also bring about new nations out of Nigeria.

This is a time wasting Protest. There is no clear objective. No plan of follow up. Nothing.

They are rudderless.

Nigeria is very difficult to break.



The only thing strong enough to break this country now will be if the protesters push for the demands in the attached pix, which are even more important and consequential. This government will never agree to most of those demands and it may become the people versus the government.

Let me put it this way. The UK structured in a way that the 4 component areas, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland all have their own governments and control their resources

Scotland is part of the UK but Scotland has so much powers to the extent that Scotland has its own currency, its own parliament, its own anthem and even its own military! The Scottish Army is known as the Scottish fusiliers. Those who want Nigeria restructured cannot even start to dream of the level of restructuring Scotland enjoys. But despite that, Scotland is ruled by the Scottish Nationalists Party and they got Scotland an independence referendum in 2014. They are currently planning another referendum in 2022.


Even if Nigeria is restructured into Regions, any of those Regions will still have the right to seek self determination

Hard times is the best time to restructure. It's actually the hard times that is mainly fuelling the protests. Check it, SARS is gone but protest continue cheesy. So now is the time.

"Power must therefore be devolved to the regions. I propose five new regions: Sharia North; Yoruba West; Igbo East, Niger Delta; and Middle Belt.

Each region must be allowed to develop in accordance with its own cultural and ethno-religious mindset. The federal centre should focus mainly on national defence, foreign policy, customs and monetary economics."

If the protesters tender restructuring as their main problem, then they can get it.

They don't know that restructuring will end police brutality, every state can hold their government accountbly
