What Is The Difference Between Restructuring And Secession In Nigeria? by pauljumbo(op): 11:13am On Jun 01, 2017
i really want to know what is the difference between restructuring and secession in Nigeria? i know the Igbos are advocating secession which very clear that they want to pull out from Nigeria but restructuring is vague to me.

I noticed politicians from the south and some northern politician like Atiku are advocating restructuring Nigeria its confusing to me i will like to know what's the difference?

mynd44 most Nigerian don't really know the practical meaning of restructuring Nigeria I will like a basic explanation of what is the meaning of restructuring from those who knows.

tonyebarcanista ochejoseph and other smart guys here if you can help with the meaning I will really appreciate it

Restructuring means to give those that being sideline a chance to be in the reign of affairs , while secessionist means division.

Restructuring is a common term that honestly means nothing in the Nigerian scheme of things because everyone has their own definition of what it means.

But Nigerians and their politicians have hijack that term and throw it around anytime secessionist agenda comes to the fore front.

It is now used as a bait to calm things down when the political climate heats up.

They throw that word around anytime SE or SS people get angry at the current exploitation going on.

Restructure is a piece of mumbo-jumbo while secession is level-headed approach.

You better forget that one. If you think that the North are going to entertain any thought of letting you control your Oil and Gas wealth to their detriment then you must be dreaming.

See how empty u are. Simple question, quickly, you referred him to Google.

U only show up when its time to showcase mundane sentiments and ethnic madness.

Talk about analytical discourse, you disappear with the wind. grin

Thats basically it. It is only when you control the resources on your land that you become your own master. However, before you can control your resources, two things must be changed. The existing structure that is denying you control of your resources must be changed. Afther this is done, the constitution must also be changed to reflect the fact that it is now you that control your resources instead of Government.

It is this changing of the constitution that is the stumbling block that makes restructuring impossible in Nigeria.
