For gawd sake Nigeria does not have landmass but her population of 200m is bigger than Russia 144m whose landmass is about 19 times bigger than Nigeria.
This is stupidity & extreme insanity.

Nigeria is approximately 923,768 sq km, while Russia is approximately 17,098,242 sq km, making Russia 1,751% larger than Nigeria.

Whats wrong in going our separate ways? We do not like each other so why must we be together?

Parachoko:
I like the man suggestion, but for such a thing to happen, it needs to be back by the law.

Our lawmakers can still work on the kind of people's constitution he is talking about though

If we decide to throw away this constitution and work on a new constitution, 6 months won't even be enough. I doubt we won't all go our different ways sef cause we will never agree on the new constitution.

See the way people are insisting on the failed status quo!

The pertinent questions to ask are, where will the interim national government derive its legality from? Does the present constitutional make provision for such an arrangement? Which part of the country will produce the head of ING? Will ING not seek for extension after six months like Buni did in APC? and can ING deliver a free and fair election?

Jakumo:
I hereby volunteer to head the interim government as the exalted Maximum Leader and Area Fada of Nigeria bestowed with unlimited powers to do and undo at both federal and state levels of authority. The first order of the day will be to legalize marijuana for medical and recreational consumption, with taxes imposed on commercial farms and exporters so as to open up gigantic revenue streams for government and investors alike.

The second directive I will issue will be to formalize a revenue-sharing formula based on the income generated by each state, whereby those in the Niger Delta will enjoy budgetary allocations commensurate with the proceeds of Nigeria's oil export income on the international market, while states of Northern Nigerianistan will be encouraged to enjoy the bountiful returns derived from the export of groundnuts, soya beans, millet, and camel meat.

Standing by for my call to serve in the new federal capital of Warri, conveniently relocated for close proximity to Nigeria's primary source of income, those all-important oil fields. Abuja can of course be retained as a tourist attraction where visitors from all over the world can go to ride donkeys, hunt terrorist gangs for sport, and eat suya made with meat from questionable sources.

I’m talking about his suggestion that an interim government made up of former presidents, Vice Presidents, governors and professional bodies should take over the administration of the country for six months. Where in the constitution did he get that from?

Is his suggestion not about changing the so called constitution?

What Afe Babalola is suggesting is not known to law. The election will go ahead as planned.

And you think you know Naija law more than him?

Is it not better we go out separate ways that stay with this criminal constitution that keep feeding the north at the detriment of the south?

I wish we can go our separate ways too, but, is it possible in present day Nigeria? The answer Is NO.

Politicians from Southern Nigeria are not interested in division. If you are a Nigerian politician with access to the National Cake and freedom to do anything you want and get away with anything you want, will you want the country to divide?

Bros, the people are resolved. If politicians don't want division that's their business, I doubt if Nigeria will get to 2025.

People also said Nigeria will divide in 2020 or so. People have been predicting Nigeria will divide.

Okay, tell me, what do you think will happen in Nigeria that will make it divide before 2025?

YEYE men; yeye generation of Afe Babalola and Obasanjo who laid the foundations for these problems in early 2000s' Nigeria(ns) have been facing since then. They were busy looting billions of naira from FGN then...

Never n never they will rather tell Buhari to continue, that is there plan

This is the best suggestion of the time, but the current government at all levels will vehemently object same.

Who are the we? If you say the greedy crop of politicians we have today won't allow it happen, I'd have agreed with you. Or are you one of them by saying we? Lol.

But they've got no choice. If we must move forward and remain united as a country, a new constitution is the panacea

We means Nigerians.


If we(Nigerians) decide to work on a new constitution, we(Nigerians) will never agree on issue like resource control, state creation,system of govt. We should run etc.

On the grounds of insecurity, elections can be suspended. Once this happens, a president who would have completed his terms wouldn't be in the office. Someone must be appointed to fill the vacuum. They may not call it an interim president or leader but in the true sense of it, what's what it is.

The said constitution is faulty. A lot needs to be amended if we must remain united as a country and progress. Often times, rhe events around us give room for constitutional amendments . I cite the areangement which brought Yahaya Bello into power in Kogi as a good example. Such had never happened before then. If such a scenario should happen next time, Nigerians already know what to do.

I see you as a brother even though we don't agree on some things as touching Tinubu and Lagos. See the way Yayi is running things in our state. Politics needs to be made less lucrative and only this would guarantee taking dividends of democracy to the common man ( democracy is governmentof the people but not in Nigeria). Yayi in 2019 ran to Ogun to contest the governorship promaries with Dapo Abiodun. The moment he lost, he ran back to his constituency in Lagos so he doesn't lose both ways. Now again, he's planning to go to same ogun to contest a senate seat, owing to the fact that, once he completes his 2nd rerm in lagos as senator, he'd not be able to return to the NA. He wants to be in senate and keep stealing the money of his constituents. A lot of them had companies before joining politics. These companies had been shut because they've found another source of making money and in a seamless way. Only constitutional amendments can address all that.

Same yahaya bello had a transport company called Fairplus. He had his park in Isoloko area in Agege and I used to board his vehicle to Lokoja in the past. The moment he became governor, the company ceased to exist. That's how they milk the country and the masses would keep suffering. ASUU strike is entering another dimension in Nigeria but they don't carry. None of their children schools here. Enough said .

I don't think so. We are not the politicians. Resource control had always been there from the world go, mind you. But the politicians are our wahala. They always refuse to move the motion or allow the bill for amendment fly.

Since independence, there had been resource control. Each region depended on their source(es) of revenue or resources to thrive because of the system of democracy being practised as of then. Each region only had representatives at the centre. We need to return to that system if we truly want to remain one Nigeria and our people have always been advocating for this system of government. Instead of our politicians doing the needful on resource control which had generated heated arguments severally on the floor of the house by amending the constitution to reflect this, they simply look the other way.

I don't blame them. Did we truly vote them there? That's why someone like Sen Olalekan Adeola would be planning to run to Ogun State and contest a senatorial seat upon completion of his 2nd term as senator in lagos. He's originally from Ogun but because he's been in lagos all along, he contested here and you can't do more than 2 terms in lagos based on the age-long arrangement, to give others the opportunity to contest. Only by amending our constitution by making it less attractive or lucrative would all these nonsense be checked and breeze of true democracy could truly be felt by the common man.

The problem of Nigeria is primarily the problem of over population. Especially when a larger percentage of the population are idiots with zero IQ.
