To all you idiots who commented based on the title instead of reading the content, it literally said a brown new constitution and restructuring are needed.

Afenifere believed in the restructuring of the country and true federalism as he emphasized that the National Assembly must also be discussed in the process of restructuring.
God bless u sir....the NA ..TO must be discuss too.. preferably to become a unicameral on part term basis..we will only pay day on sitting..let see how politics become do or die affairs..all those useless benefits be taken away from them...any fed law maker must get side hustling too

I have always said it, there's nothing wrong with nigerian constitution. Let's stop wasting time chasing shadows. Our real problems are greed and mismanagement. Is it governor's that have refused to pay common minimum wage that u now want to give power over police, aviation, mineral resources etc

Nigerians should wake up
How can you say there's nothing wrong with Nigerian Constitution. That thing should be trashed away. We need a new one not even amendment. And as we already know some people won't want a new one and won't still even want an amended version of it. They like it the way it is cos it favours them.

There are many things wrong with the 1999 constitution, the constitution is to guide people and leaders in the society. All the issues of corruption is because the system allows it . let's the people sit and fashion another constitution that reflect true federalism or each region pathways peacefully, we can be rotating on a spot

It just won't!

Read the patterns of thought of the enemies Nigeria to know where the problems lie.

Never forget that the orientation of the masses needs purging.

Do you have the numbers to veto him?

Stop shifting blame on the President at every given time.
Those who we call our representatives at the National Assembly should do their jobs or let the sensible and reasonable populace from where some of those insensitive and insensible members come from kick them out of office through all the channels that exists be it lawful or unlawful

insincerity, insensitivity of our diversity as a nation by the leaders especially the fed govt, unfairness, injustice, religious bigotry, nepotism, tribalism, evil agender of the fed govt and its jihadist cabal, a govt whose only interest is on how to suppress and oppress and the cowardly southern leaders who cannot unit and build a formidable force because of greed and corruption is the problem of nigeria, the only solution to nigeria's problem is restructuring, let everyone bear their own burden.

It won’t solve anything at all.

Because the lawmakers, especially southerners will not have the balls to insist that the things we really yearn for scales through.

And if it does, what’s the assurance that the idiot in Aso Rock will sign it?

Just unbundle this enclave biko.

How will they vote?

The Constitution gave him power to be in control of the minimum wage.

What are we still amending?
Trash such documents and go for true federalism, let there be resources control.
Allow the states to explore their natural resources and pay percentage to the FG.

Sharing money every month in Abuja to govs is making them lazy and unproductive.

Big fvcking lie. Nigeria is 3.8 times the size of Ghana. So how can you fit 8 Ghanas into Nigeria?

okuta007:


you are so right, as per land mass, one can fit 8 Ghana into 1 Nigeria map - Nigeria is too big and too etho-religiously diverse to ever exist as a peaceful and prosperous country without mutual suspicion and manipulation by one group over the other.

The constitution review committee been setup across the country is just waste of time and public funds.

The govt is just looking for ways to appease and cajole NIGERIANs just to safe guard the remaining 2yrs of their tenure.

Am 99% sure that the outcome of this committee won't be implemented, it will be drag till their tenure comes to an end.

If this govt is serious they should implement 2014 confab outcome. Simple as ABC.

There is nothing wrong with our constitution but u expect governors to pay minimum wage that FG agreed not them , with what money

Brazil , Malaysia , China , USA , Russia and many other countries develop in the mix of corruption

What a country can't develop with is lack of patriotic citizens and equity which only a constitutional review can grant Nigeria

Are u joking or u have been living under a rock were governors not part of the bargaining?

Everything is wrong with the constitution!
Will you force your child to become what he doesn't have any idea about? Like he want to become a doctor and you had already drawn your plan for him to become an engineer, will that your child be ever happy with you?
The Nigerian people knew nothing about this constitution, it was a back door document to oppress the people. What was in the minds of those behind it that they could not make it public at the time? It's fraudulent document. Everything is wrong with it... Our constitution is the beginning and end of corruption in Nigeria.

name one single section that is wrong
Most times people just love to chant meaningless rhetorics

Oga, there is everything wrong with it. Now, states are broke. They are broke becus they are made lazy. They know that at the end of the month,they will get money, free money they didn't work for. States in the north will ban sale of beer and destroy the business but will still get VAT from the sale of beer from other states. That is madness. We run the most useless system of govt in the world. U can't make progress with such system. This has made states to be so useless and weak.

U see Governors running to Abuja to ass lick staff of aso rock which is not meant to be. President is too powerful yet he is so far away from the entire country. Makes no sense.


Some states can power their electricity but the yeye system will first carry all u generated to national grid and give u a share from there. Too much rubbish in Nigeria system.

U can't protest against President becus the region he came from will see it as protest against their region. That is rubbish. Omo, if una no throw away this useless constitution and system, in 50 years time, Nigeria will only get worse becus the population then must have become twice this we have.

if u live borrow the book of life from heaven and bring it to nigeria, the country wont change. We have an attitude and behaviour problem not constitution. There is not single section in the constitution that doesnt speak to unity. The national grid u are complaining about is what america practices. Texas that broke away from that system ended up in disaster last year. Before u start complaining about tribalism in presidency, what of the governors nko is it any different?

The problem nigeria has is greed, selfishness and innate wickedness. Not constitution. constitution is just paper. we nigerians are the demons manipulating the paper
