The Presidency has advised proponents of restructuring to exercise restraint in their choice of words, saying issues are resolved through “established processes, not by abuses, insults or irresponsible statements’’.

Malam Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, gave the advice in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday.

Shehu was reacting to opinions expressed by Nigerians for and against President Muhammadu Buhari’s speech on Monday on his return from a medical vacation.

He said that the call became imperative to avoid heating up the polity and causing acrimony across the country.


The presidential aide said that majority of the citizens welcomed the broadcast, and condemned those criticizing the president for not responding to calls for restructuring of the country.


He said that the president had no power to impose restructuring on the country by military dictate.

Shehu explained that National Assembly members were the elected representatives of the people who could handle agitations for restructuring and other constitutional changes.

According to him, the president is constitutionally bound to work with the national assembly to deal with such complex issues.

He reminded the critics that Buhari would not exercise arbitrary powers or bypass the legislature in taking such fundamental decisions.

I can't believe they are still zombies out there, despite Buhari's humongous fail! This is not about pdp or ipob. Receive it!

So ppl can't criticize d govt again? I still remember GEJ being d most abused name online jus a couple of years ago.. So much for freedom..

Ok

But the headline here doesn't tally with this post. Another Sensational headline

How can the National Assembly tackle the issue of restructuring when we know the north is against it cos the system was skewed to give them the majority in both chambers.
That 1999 constitution must be discarded and a new constitution formulated by the people should be realized so it will truly be the peoples constitution.

Restructuring of the political and economic landscape of this country must be achieved on or before 2019 elections or else we the southerners must stand our grounds and boycott the presidential elections.

Thats the only way or we disintegrate.

God help us!

the north have concluded that Nigeria would never be restructured, disintegration is the only way out now.

I really don't see Nigeria become a developed country in 100 years time if drastic measures are not taken. It must not be business as usual. The time is now to change the structure of the country to breed nationalism and patriotism.

We've all fallen out of love with Nigeria. So sad.

Buhari is a dumb high school drop-out, intoxicated with religious and ethnic bigotry, with no capacity to lead anybody, not even his own house wife.

Oya, come an catch me.

Your headline is different from the content! You spend 24 hours creating threads on nairaland as if you're being paid by Seu.n. Why do you like creating anarchy where there's none? Where in the writeup did Garba Shehu say so?

I tire, people just read Headlines and off they go. The OP is aware of this, and that's his purpose, but l'm disappointed by the way supposedly educated people fall for this, thread after thread.

Threat is the weapon of a weakling. Give room for criticism, analyze it, sieve it, use the good and flush the thrash . stop threatening the citizens.

Where was the threat in that post?

So even this perpetually shameless bunch can open their trash mouth to say this Wonders shall never end in this APC government.They rode on cheap propaganda via the social media then turned around to gag same but Nigerians stoutly resisted it.Next was the stupid "hate speech"issue which also originated from them(esp.Buhari himself and Lai Muhammed).Now the army under this evil regime are back again with another plot to shut our mouth.E no go better for una Olorun.
