This has always been my view except the State police. Governors should not be allowed to control armed forces.
Would you be cool with decentralised police force with you LG chairman appointing them or have option of viting in sheriff?

Sounds very sweet. So this APC folks know exactly what Nigerian needs. But unfortunately, this is all geared toward their bid for 2019. We can not be deceived. So you guys know all this and you where running the country like a one-man shop. All these sweet ideas is just so that Nigerians will say APC is the party, let's vote them again. But sorry, we refused to be fooled twice.

Key point on APC Restructuring panel Report headed by El Rufai.

1. Resource control be approved for Onshore oil, gas and all other mineral resources be controlled by states.

2. Offshore oil, gas and all other minerals resources to be controlled by federal govt.

3. Local govt should be scrapped and be removed from Nigeria constitution. Let every states decide how to manage it's communities.

4. State police should be created.

5. Independent candidates be approved for election if they meets INEC conditions.

6. States share of revenue allocation should increase while that of federal govt should reduce.

7. Some states should be allow to merge. No additional states should be created.

8.State of origin and local govt of origin be abolished and to be replace with place of residence.

The best thing that will happen to a country like nigeria is regionalism. The devolution of local government will herbour recolonialism to the weaker states especially in the middle belt n northern minorities.

I'm sure you know the stance of this government about restructuring, maybe you forgot so quickly?

El rufai himself is against it and most northerner are, likewise the President. They are obviously diverting attention, and as you know our politicians, this is what they want to use for 2019....

Are you saying they didn't talk about restructuring prior to 2015 election? Have they done anything since then? Do they even know what it means and how to make it work?
No. You are more experienced in governance than those in power.

Are you thinking a government that comes into power would rush into something as important as this?

Can you provide a source of El-Rufai being against restructuring?

Are you even aware this report was chaired by the same El-Rufai?

There is no country in the world where offshore resources are controlled by states.
As long as the money made from those offshore resources are NOT allocated to any states and used solely for the duties of the federal government, it's fine.

I HOPE NIGERIANS DON'T FALL FOR THIS TROJAN HORSE "RESTRUCTURING". IT IS MY BELIEF THAT IT IS A MASSIVE DECOY TO GET THE SUPPORT OF THE SOUTHWEST JUST CLINCH TO POWER. I AM 200% SURE THAT IT WOULD BE OVERTURNED AS SOON AS THEY RETURN TO POWER.
The same APC government spoke about restructuring the nation prior to the 2015 election and went quiet on the subject the moment they won. So there is absolutely no reason to believe anything they say. They'll need to pass it into law before the election, that way they'll be able to use it as an achievement in their next election campaign.

Even in the united state, the best known federal system in the world, US federal govt control offshore oil resources. International law does not recognise states when it comes to the sea. This issue has already be mostly resolved by Obansanjo under the Offshore/Onshore dichotomy on the 13% derivatives.

Some people like you lack wisdom. in the current system you don't have or control anything. There is a proposal to give u some control, wisdom should have made you calm down and grab it first before pushing for more. If u push for more now, you will get nothing but status quo
Don't mind them. They think gragra is wisdom

my fears are Nigerian politicians, because they have special ways to cheat or beat laws. as for the the "local government " bad market for them if this law went through.

Isn’t the NASS supposed to be at the helm of this, why is it a party affair?

This list is another APC ‘manifesto’ to be used in hoodwinking folks to vote them into power.

I didn't bother to even finish reading the post because as a Niger Delta son, the number one and two just got me angry.

In a simple term, what one and two means is that all minerals resources under the category of mining should be under the control of States which is onshore while almost 85% of oil which is mostly in offshore when you come to Niger Delta will now be controlled by the FG. This document is dead on arrival from the perspective of the Niger Delta man.

In which state would we say the offshore is located? Remember offshore is deep in the sea and no state has a map extending to the middle of the sea. Let's be realistic

juddy4life:
On-shore and offshore should be controlled by the state. No restructuring with out this.QED.
Re: APC Restructuring Committee Approves Resource Control, State Police, Others by namdo(m): 6:03pm On Jan 26, 2018
if APC politicians with support from others can carry these out, amending the constitution to fit, nigeria will move a step further to greatness. But can we hold this govt accountable for her promises? Can we trust Buhari and APC to use their political resources to do these changes?
