I think Fayemi is on point on this. Give resources to the people you can see, you can touch and feel. When you are aggrieved you air your grievance and they will listen . When they respond and you can't hear them properly you tell them to "soro soke"- Speak out Not the ones that feel unperturbed while the state is burning. Why did you need a federal ministry of housing when their overhead cost is more than the cost of houses being built? They should dissolve the ministry and send the bureaucrats to their states - This should be a state affair. Why did you need a federal ministry of agriculture when agriculture is being practised at the state level. Rice revolution was anchored by cbn the only thing they do is to distribute fertilizer. Why did you need a federal ministry of power? Akwa generates her own power and can easily distribute if the legislative framework enables her. You create federal ministry of environment, you appoint someone from south west - when you talk about desertification, he doesn't understand, when you talk about erosion he doesn't understand, why do you need such a ministry? Why do you need federal ministry of works when dangote industries has almost finished Ojota Apapa expressway that federal government can not achieve in over 20 years . They should just dissolve the role to the state government and send the bureaucrats to their states When the federal government gets it wrong everyone is distressed. Like the man said the other time you raised china loan, you construct rail line from kano to Niger You construct rail line that is not going to factories that is not going to mining sites that is not going to port that is of no economic purpose and meanwhile, generation unborn will pay for the loan I totally support Fayemi on this AlagbaGaabu: 3 Likes 1 Share |

We will just say all this seemingly laudable policy and nothing will happen in the end. Since Nigeria has been yapping about restructuring, a child that was born then would have finished university now. Nobody wants to make the sacrifice. But I think only the northerners don't want restructuring right now, these people just behaving as if other people don't matter in this country because they have the military on their side. Please I have been trying to ask this germane question for a while, how many people are in Nigerian military based on tribe, that is, what is the percentage of Yoruba, Igbo, hausa or fulani in Nigerian military? We should be wary of these northerners with their politics in Nigerian military o, they just recently killed one Yoruba lady (name forgotten) who was the first female fighter jet pilot in Nigeria? |

Nigerian politicians with their excellent speeches if only they have what it takes to implement them. But why are se governors not adding their voices to this important restructuring debate are they comfortable with the current structure of nigeria? |

TecM0:Good question regarding the autonomy of local governments. It seems there is dictatorship at every level of government. Governors are asking for restructuring, which I support wholly but should show example by giving autonomy to local governments and stop taking their allocation in exchange for peanuts. 1 Like |

oluwaseyi0: What we suppose to have is a House of Senate (36 in Numbers nominated or appointed by the State Governor) at Federal level only and House of Rep at the State Level as it is presently. Having both House of Senate and House of Assembly at the Federal level is the problem. |

Emanodimo: But will this selfish politicians ever accept your beautiful suggestion? I fully agree we need just one house with one state representative each but I think the executive should not appoint the legislator otherwise they will become houseboy to the governor that appoint them 1 Like |

Fayemi has raised good points. U can only be living in denial if u think otherwise. If the present administration failed to look into these points, we the youths will take it up as our patriotic responsibility.

Sterlingsolutns: Bros, u are the one making a valid point here. Fayemi isn't seeing what u see ohh... Sincerely, u can imagine the wastage created by all sort of agencies created at the Federal level relegates the State agencies shows on non performance. This is the cause of under development in Nigeria... Let the State control their resources and remit on certain percent that can take care of Federal Exclusive list e.g Security, Power and Infrastructure. State should have welfare, development, healthcare and resource control, education as its State Exclusive List. Local Governments should focus on Implementation of those State Exclusive list in their areas and Local Government Exclusive list should hinge on Manpower development, Skills Acquisition, provision of social amenties good road, water, transportation network. |

oluwaseyi0: That the politicians won't accepts has been the bane behind a Unicameral. This will becomes the reality when constituency begins to open their minds on recalling their Honorable constitutionally. Going back to Nigeria Political History, I am yet to see that happening...that's the key to return power to the people.... Once, people can achieve that at the local level, we can sail through other... There is no Federal Might without the State, and there is no State might without the locals. |

ibietela2: Well, as much as I like osinbanjo, restructuring Nigeria is easier said than done you will have to contend with forces from different part of the country as the restructuring will not favour some people and osinbanjo is limited by his position as VP. Restructuring has to do more with our representatives in the national assembly. We need a president that is diplomatic, political savvy and ready to step on some big toes as well as have a good structure of support from different part of the country in order for restructuring to be successful. And only a handful of our politicians have this characteristics. From my description and without sentiment, you should be able to guess who is capable of this. |

oluwaseyi0: The question of the Legislator being a tool in the hands of Executive is as a result of disservice to the people. A legislator is expected to work with the executive being in a good rapport representing the people's interest. If the position of Senator in a Unicameral house is left for Public to determine, the chaos and competition and wastage of resources to either conduct election for such post will be much. The House of Rep Speaker, Appointees, Key Individuals at Corporate level, Activist, etc can be used...just a suggestion... |

The money sharing syndrome needs to stop! The states/constituent units should not keep sitting idly and expecting to draw from a common purse every month by whatever sharing formula! Instead, regions/states however they partner, should look inwards, draw on available resources/expertise, generate funds and pay taxes to the centre! Let everyone develop at their pace while common issues like currency, military/territorial security, foreign relations, CBN, etc are maintained through taxes to the centre! That is real devolution of powers/confederation! |
