It's a big shame the way some people engage in insults on the internet

It's highly uncalled for and I really think Nairaland should frown at it

Imagine a whole page on an interesting and educative write-up as this being dominated by fathers or would be fathers throwing expletives at each other

If I don't see anything wrong in hurling insults at people on a public space, I will definitely not see anything wrong in jungle justice, ritual killing, raping, stealing public funds, election rigging etc

And yet, we want Nigeria to be great.

Not by following such ignoble path

God bless

Isn't this crazy?

And the thing is private company workers are so damn helpless!

And the govt is just not concerned

Damn!

There are a lot of frustrated people in Nigeria..

And nairaland happens to be one of their abodes! SMH

DEAFandDUMB:
Thank for the correction but you ought to know that was typographic error..

Meanwhile back to the matter...

Have you heard of the mechanical term BRAIN BOX? When the I.C circurt of any heavy duty gen set develops emergency fault or fails to kick start maybe due to problem from the kick starter, what is the bail out option or better still, what will be your next line of action in restoring power within a limited time frame.. Take AMAA award event scenario as a case study..

Am somehow baffled!

Are you a mechanical or electrical engineer?

Thumbs up to you

The amazing intellect and your constructive comments got me glued to your posts for good 20mins...no thanks to d early Abuja rain sha

I will like to know you more

Great day ahead!

DEAFandDUMB:
Precious gift from Mum to daughter..
Do you have any problem with that?

Your mum must really be a queen!

In her days, she must have given guys broken neck

DEAFandDUMB:
Political parties are one of the many problems we facing in this country... They are all after their personal interest and nothing more.. No youth is taking over anything anywhere, the main people behind these proposed act are those same people that has kept Nigeria the we are ever since...

Note.. I nethier belong to APC or PDP.. Am apolitical and will always say my mind openly on national issues..

You are absolutely correct!

Political parties driven and run by greedy, self-seeking politicians whose ambition and goal is to enrich their accounts both locally and internationally at the detriment of the people!

And they are that way because elective posts in Nigeria are 'goldmine'!

I passed Wadata plaza (PDP national secretariat) on Monday around 9am and I know another drama is coming!

It is well with Nigeria

jagojunior:
Let's call a spade a spade and quit beating around the bush. What y'all are looking for is secession, it is as simple as ABC. Like I said, I'm a realist and it's better you shoot straight than going round a viscous cycle pretending about your true intention. If regionalism comes into play today, what will be the sanction on zones that violate remitting of the agreed percent to the centre? What will be the negotiating chip by the government at the centre? OR
Is it the same center that currently wields enormous power yet powerless to query the states to account for fund utilisation that will hold an empowered zone (through regionalism) accountable? Maybe You are thinking that respect and sanity will only return when power is stripped off an already weak (but wrongly tagged powerful) center that controls almost all resources in the country yet disrespected by every Tom, Dick and Harry living in Nigeria on a daily basis. Please, think again and this time from a different perspective.

Viewing through my lens:
Bottom line is this, any call for regionalism/resource control/true federalism etc right now is a call for secession and the truth is that GREED is the true reason behind that call. I don't want to be a prophet of doom but brotherly, the last time some over zealous soldiers changed the system of resource control in Nigeria (ie decree 34), a civil war broke out. Today, same group is the brain behind pushing for a reverse in the system to what was before decree 34. Trust me, another civil war will follow. If it wasn't greed to control all the resources in every region by those that brought this system upon us, why the promulgation of decree 34 that year? They thought they will live forever and have supreme access to everybody's resources. Karma is a fvcking Dam. The table turned and the music quickly changed. Nigerian history as a compulsory course should be introduced in primary and secondary schools to help us appreciate how far we have come and how we can navigate the dangerous bend we have found ourselves.

Please, disabuse your minds of the illusion that regionalism is the magic wand that will turn everything around for us as a nation.
I will echo it again, value reorientation (especially the leaders) is what we need now. We have come a very long way as a Nation, any attempt to actualize this wishful thought of regionalism/secession/resource control will only bring war. There are no losers or winners of a war, we all share from both sides of the divide maybe a little bit unevenly. Reality check should tell us that the country is too messed up and unripe for any of these right now. A word they said is enough.

However, que sera sera. Shalom!

#My1kobo

Nice write up there!

But have you considered this: when a northerner is in power @ d centre, some southern militants raise there heads; when a southerner is in power, some northern militants raise there heads!

Ho w best do we as a nation handle this?

PS: this thread to the best of my knowledge is for knowledge sharing and we never know the great resolution that could come out of it.
Hence, I will appeal to everyone to constructively 'attack' the subject..all malicious and verbal abuses is of no use!
Let's refrain from it..it is possible.

God bless

DEAFandDUMB:
How best do you think Nigeria can be restructured so as to get the best out of her?

For me, one of the best ways Nigeria can be restructured is to make political offices less lucrative! Trust me, it is only people who have passion to serve that will contest for elective posts! And we will be better for it

And for that to be done, the constitution has to be re-written!
The present constitution has so many loop holes. It is not helping our nationhood!

In addition, I believe for all these to happen Nigerians must see themselves and their neighbours firstly as Nigerians!

All these talks of my brother, your sister, my language man etc is just dividing us and it is making us to be going round in circles

The painful part is that it is we the masses that feels the pang of these ethnic and cultural divide mostly!

Let's see ourselves as one!

God bless

lekancaring:
but why is it dat is now nairaland is updating us since on 12 and is closing tomorrow poor publication

Sir/Ma, I will advise you to be using your data for knowledge acquisition the more.

And nairaland should not be your only source of getting rich and relevant information.

I am even sure a similar thread must have been opened on nairaland before now

God bless

mrtheo33:
Seriously i am in support of true federalìsm.
That is d only way nigeria will be beta.
1. It wl addr d issue of agitations in d regions
2. It wl enhance security within all d regions
3. It wl fast track infrastructural devt within d regions
4. It wl make d regional govts responsible, think reasonably n be active to harness their potential to exploit their natural resources. Every geopolitical zone in dis country hv adequate resources dat can sustain dem
5. It best way for diversification of economy.
6. It wl trigger regional compitition in terms of infrastructure n economic devlopment.
Infact, d benefits abound

Wonderful contribution

Like you put it, the states will form regions

And truth is all regions have resources!

The large expanse of land and blazing sun in d north is great resource on its own! So if properly handled, the north will more than survive!

The west will survive too!

With a regionalised Nigeria, this country will become great! Agro allied industries will don the regions!
The mineral resources in east west & north will be efficiently tapped!

Edo & Delta can lead thr region in oil palm plantation

Militancy & insurgency should be greatly reduced too

Nigeria will be great! Amen

Oildichotomy:
Sorry to say but your submissions seems to be skewed and tad naive.

So Nigeria being a mere geographical entity according to your Awolowo negates nationhood? If I may ask which country is not a geographical entity?
Even if we are to follow your supposed Awolowo premise of mere geographical entity, Didn't that just suggest we go our separate ways since we don't have what it takes to sustain nationhood?

The Center for Global Development 2006 Working Paper suggest that Age in a democracy doesn't matter provided the younger democracies enact proactive fiscal structures, economic and policy directions that have widespread impact and approval or it stand a risk of democratic reversal.

We are ripe enough to restructure the country to fiscal federalism or we will just succeed in delaying the inevitable and patching through the same way we have been doing since 1966.

Truth be told, a substantial part of the country feel cheated and agitated with the status quo.

Let me say that Awolowo's submission implies our diversity in ethic lines, cultural lines & religious lines.
This makes it hard for the people in Nigeria to naturally feel the togetherness spirit, that is why nationhood is lacking!
You can have the English people. Why? They are united culturally and to a great extent religiously. We don't have that

By the way, I am never opposed to restructuring. We need it.
This status quo where a northerner becomes president and some southerners take up arms or a southerner becomes president and some northerners take up arms is unhealthy and a cog in the wheels of Nigeria

oweniwe:
How old is Nigeria that it is too young to practice fiscal federalism?

The last states creation was in 1996... 2016 makes it 20 years...

How old is Nigeria that it is too young?

Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Egypt all got independence around the same time with Nigeria ... Nigeria was better than them... Today, they are far ahead of Nigeria .

How old is Nigeria again that it is too young to practice fiscal federalism?

How many years old must Nigeria be before it can practice federalism?

Like Awolowo said, Nigeria is a mere geographical entity! That is why you can't really compare Nigeria to those countries

Egyptians are to a great extent one people

We don't have that! The number of tribes in Kogi state itself is wahala

Moreso, I said we are democratically too young! Our democracy is still 16years

The major opposition party as at now has no National Party Chairman!

That was and is my point - we seem a bit democratically young!we are still having cases of 5 lawmakers impeaching a speaker over-ruling other 15 lawmakers!
