You still in bed?

A new day has come..

Good morning to all the great thinkers out there.. How was the night?

Please lets preach peace and not war.
Eddygourdo and mikolo80, please lower your swords so we can do justice to this topic as one big family..
Please..

When we export those things does not make us great... We only felt better. Populations multiplying, people getting more exposed, hidden deals benig excavated, while no prudent plans for the future we're being made.. Then.. What we felt were better turned to be unsustainable, deversions followed, deceptions, robbing Mr A to pay Mr B, false accusations and killings(Ken Saro Wiwa), all smooth sweets turned sour.. And we discovered, we were never great.. We only felt we were great..

Can we ever be great? If yes, please tell us how you think we can achieve that without bloodshed or another civil war...

Unbrandedguy:
Having read all advantageous effects. I state the disadvantages:
1. States have right to form state police, Nig govt fears this will create room for state rebellion and subsequently use police for state govt personal purposes.
2. States have right to be autonomous, a room Nig govt sees as introduction to seccession.
3. States control their resources, Nig govt feels this would leave many states in the north impoverished.
4. State govt earns varied salaries, Nig govt feels some southern states will have more money and enslave others.
5. States finally have right to leave or stay as one entity in Nig. A light to achieving Biafra/ND republic, Oduduwa republic etc. Nig govt does not want that to happen..

These are disadvantages..
Its for us to check if they weigh up to, or outweight the advantages.

Am short of words Sir.. Informations as such is what prompted these topic.. With the few points listed, I think if the Nigeria govt. really want to practice true federalism, they can enact a law or state some modalities that will be guiding the state.. Over there at the western world, we have the LAPD and FBI as well they all work according to the standing rules which gives you power solely within your jurisdiction..

Which better way do you think is the best way forward?

egedege1:
You're such a jewel to behold

Thanks... Am blushing already...

Leopardd:


Point of correction, Nigeria was never great

Really??

Thought we use to export rubber, cocoa, textile and even palm oil and what have you... When agriculture was our main source of income and revenue generation before the birth of the evil child called crude oil..

What?

Thanks dear.. Am home already..

artmostfair:


It's both- depending on which side of the river you stand.

I stand on the peace side .. The northerner are great famers and if well managed and mechanised, can be one of the biggest food exporters in Nigeria..

Why threaten war for something that is not even on your land... Or are they the sole owners of those pipelines?

advantages of federalism
1.people feel more involved
2.separation of power to help create checks and balance that are in play rather than let all one body hold all the power
3.a better understand,each states or region have different needs and care,for example the feeding of school children is more critical in some region than others,why such money is needed to build or repair schools,feeding school kids is not ridiculous to some regions,in an all out unitary government understanding the basic needs of some states is very.disadvantages will be over patriotism to a region over the entire country I guess.

Wow!... This is getting interesting... What could be the reasons why many successive administrations has refuse to embrace true federalism since from all indication its the fastest and a sure route to making Nigeria great again... Are they afraid that the centre might fall and Abuja and Lagos be deserted?

Eddygourdo:
Its the exact opposite of what we have, today power is concentrated at the centre at federal level, yet the closet government to the people is the state and local, the federal government generates funds from critucal areas of the country and shares this proceeds on a fixed formular to the states. This method is flawed because it has renderedd us a mono economy heavily dependent on oil. We haven't been able to tap the resources in other states and its very difficult for the dividends on democracy to reach the common man. Thus true federalism in this context is based majorly on resource control. Power must shift to the regions, we must weaken the government at the centre and transfer power to the regions. This means states would generate and develop their regions with whatever exists there while the contribute a token to the centre for running federal units like the military and unuversities. This implies that nigeria woould become a diversified economy faster in that structure than in our current one. That system reduces the importance of the president on local affairs and eliminantes traibal and religious bias in politics, as regional head have to contest amongst his or her own people unlike in the current structure

Great point Sir..

Even today being Sunday, someone is somewhere doing thesame thing with someone's husband...


Hard fact...

salam1:
is DAT d advantage and disadvantage of true federalism? u where asked simple question and u r answering lyk an slowpoke

Please let's do these with love.. Am apolitical and I will advice that we all act that way on this post in other to achieve its purpose.. Please enlightene us more on the advantages and advantages of true federalism if you know more about it..

Thanks...

erusen:
am a big fan of federalism,people that fight against all either stupid northeners or core buharist,is only in Nigeria where we fail to take the right decision because of greed and party affiliation

Why do you think this present administration is against restructuring the system?? Their slogan is change and I strongly believe that if the masses can unanimously demand for true federalism, am sure the govt. will have no lesser option than to succumb...

Its crude oil a blessing or curse to this country?

Greatings my noble compatriots, I've taken time to study and observe to polity which is already hitted up along political/ethnic lines. I realised that both party A and party B all clamour and yawn for a better Nigeria irrespective of their party idealogy but the route or method of approach in remoulding this great Nation back to what it use to be seems not to be working..
Having said that, I would want the great minds in these forum to come together as one and engage eachother in a great constructive discourse on the aforementioned topic above and see if we can at least set sail from
there..
What do you understand about True Federalism?

Do you think what Nigeria needs now at this critical moment of unrest both at the northern and southern axis is True fiscal federational government?

If you are against true federalism and total restructuring of the system, please can we have your reason and what are the other possible ways of cultivating an evalasting peace and oneness in this country...


Thanks as we await your intelligent inputs...
