Restructure Your States – Lawan To Southern Governors by tonyluyi1985: 6:07am On May 14, 2021
The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan has picked holes on the calls by southern governors on restructuring asking them to first restructure their states before asking the Federal Government to do so.
He said: “I believe that, as leaders, especially those of us who are elected into office should not be at the forefront of calling for this kind of thing (restructuring).
“Because, even if you are a governor, you are supposed to be working hard in your state to ensure that this restructuring you are calling for at the federal level, you have done it in your state as well.
“What you may accuse the Federal Government of, whatever it is, you may also be accused of the same thing in your state.
“So, we are supposed to ensure that we have a complete and total way of ensuring that our systems at the federal, state and even local government levels work for the people.
“We must allow people to participate in governance so that whoever feels he has something to offer to make Nigeria better does so freely without any let or hindrance.”
The Senate president further said, “The President is reaching out to all the stakeholders. And I believe that as leaders, particularly those of us who were elected at all levels of government, we should avoid partisanship.
“We should avoid regionalism. We are all leaders and we are in this together.
“The solutions to our challenges must come from us regardless of what level of government we are.
“Whether at the federal, state or the local government level.
“I believe that Nigeria is going to come out of these challenges stronger.” He also called for support for the federal government”.

;DIt is obvious that the north does not want a progressive Nigeria. A statement like this, coming from the Senate president, tells you what the position of the Federal government is. The truth is either Nigeria changes it structure or it breaks. I think the former is best for everyone, especially the north.

You all can see that the North is very comfortable with the rot in Nigeria. They want the status quo. Is this what we want? Do we want a Nigeria that never grows? A Nigeria that kills the dream of young people? South and north are like oil and water, they should never ever be allowed to mix.

Waoo it is now clear that this northern terrorist leaders wants to ruin Nigeria, they only want what would favour them. The governors of southern Nigeria should immediately organize a meeting with senators of southern Nigeria and stand on restructuring. Then all the senators of southern Nigeria should immediately push a bill for the restructuring of Nigeria before the this year ends. If the executive fails to append the bill, then Southern Nigeria would secede from Nigeria.

If na war them want, we go give them war, after all its only Hausa Fulani that would fight the way cos middle belt would fight against them. Let's eliminate this northern terrorist once and for all and have our own countries.

imagine what a stupid senate president is saying.

After 2023,Nigeria will be restructured
Re: Restructure Your States – Lawan To Southern Governors by Nobody: 6:50am On May 14, 2021
This lawan is a full bigot

1. How would state restructure when security is in the hands of the FG

Governors can't basically defend their people, no matter the vigilantes they give limited gun to

2. How can state restructure when there is no resource control except you are from the north.

Governors can't multi tax the same people, if they discover their own natural resources to exploit Fulani government would come for it

3. How can state restructure when there are limited boundaries to which they can champion their cause

4. How can state restructure without affecting the quota elements that commit crimes and are deemed sacred to persecute

5. How can state restructure when there is a supreme Court headed by fulani Islamic oligarchs that have biased supretedence over state judiciary


These fulani Islamic Terrorists are all leeches without brain, this is supposed to be the institution that ought to look into the restructuring

Lawan is on his own in this. Avoid regionalism my foot. People are wiser now. Why isn't he condemning killer herders when they were unleashing terror on our people in our own land? People are drifting towards secession but he's there condemning regionalism. He's still dreaming i guess. Somebody should just wake him up.

Its laughable to hear him say people should restructure their states first. I guess that's the word the northern elites have put in his mouth. This is a proof these guys are the elements opposing restructuring all along because they wanted to keep being on the parasitic side. I wouldn't know of other regions, south western States have always been restructured. There's Amotekun, there's common governance irrespective of party affiliation. Most of the things they do aren't announced in public. The intestate roads are being tarred to to ease vehicular movements. Now they're asking their commissioners of agriculture to come together and proffer a lasting solution to food scarcity in the region. These commissioners are of different parties.

If they don't welcome restructuring, its as good as saying every region can go their separate ways.

If only Tinunu can have the guts to look north in the eye and tell them to Bleep themselves, I would love to see him become president. We need a southern leader with fearless mind to face those barbarians. Gej was a sissy.

Tinubu would be worst than gej

It's a calamity waiting to happen

He has never shyed away from throwing his wife, his state of origin, his region, the south under the bus since the buhari junta started
