Nigerians just love to deceive themselves. The constitution is not the reason for corruption and wickedness we have from our leaders and citizen.

Everybody believes the constitution is the problem, let's discard it and write a new one and see what happens

The Nigerian constitution at the beginning says

“We the people of the federal republic of Nigeria”


When did we the people come together to write this constitution?

There is an igbo saying “ Onye ji mmadu, ji onwe ya”

Meaning he who is holding someone down is also holding back himself.

Your mentality is why Nigeria has remained a failure.

Despite that mentality, igbos still found a way to make it while your people can’t even boast of living better than them

I have seen countries develop under various conditions and systems — unitary, federal, quasi-federal, presidential, parliamentary, democratic, dictatorial, homogeneous, heterogeneous, etc — but I am yet to see a country develop under poor leadership. Our objective should be a leadership that is determined to deliver the basic things of life: potable water for the poor, hospitable hospitals for the lowly, good education for underprivileged, regular power supply and motorable roads. Pardon my naivety, but I do not think we need FEDERALISM to end meningitis and cholera in Gusau, or RESTRUCTURING to build roads in Aba, or 1963 constitution to run good primary schools in Ibadan.

You are wrong, right from 1999 people have spoken against the 1999 constitution and the issue of restructuring did not start with Mr Buhari. It has been on since Obasanjo's regime.

This constitution was drafted at the tail end of Abdulsalams tenure and handed over to Nwodo the former Minister of information then who was also the former Ohaneze's Presidebt.
He rejected the constitution then because it was written by just few individuals only for the same constitution to be passed down to other institutions in the country and announced immediately Obasanjo was inaugurated.

Let us be guided,we dont need any amendment of this constitution,but a new constitution like the one the Chilean government is about making for her people. An all inclusive constitution is what we need.

Truthful. The false document called 1999 constitution is a prison that clog the advancement of innovation, research and development. It focuses more on politicking, tribal and spending than technovation.

It's letters are archaic to modern reality. It gives too much food to politics and legal profession. The quota system enshrined in it is a cemetery for raw/harnessing talents.

Imagine us using the quota system in our entertainment industry. How would that sound. Quota system is enemity to patriotism in national service and breeder of corruption.

#SayNoTo1999Constitution
please what is this Quota system all about, explain for me

No body agreed to anything..

The Northern Military Junta shoved it unto the throat of Nigerians..

Imagine a group of Military Quota System Officers..

Drafting a dubious book..

And calling it,we the people's constitution.
