I said it all

frankmoney:
Restructure the country... Only regional government and resource control can work in nigeria

thunder fire regionalism, that one that will eventually ruin and divide this country, the states just need more autonomy and power and not this revenue sharing formula every month.

Drienzia:
I have always posited that parliamentary system of government is best for a country like Nigeria that would only take a miracle to ensure true federalism. Where we would have a ceremonial head and a Prime minister in charge of government, in this case our executive becomes part of the legislature ensuring effective legislation. The excesses of executive can be curbed using a vote of no confidence by the parliament and not forgetting the back benchers are always there to criticize and take over if possible. The list is endless. It’s more transparent

Wisdom... I'm glad people are beginning to see this truth...
Africa as a whole needs to end presidential system and move to Parliamentary system... Too much power is vested on the executive which is not good, breeds dictatorship and corruption

Why are you afraid of restructuring? Regional govt is the best Thing that can happen to Nigeria..

The north will back the southwest in 2023. The unity of Nigeria cannot be jeopardized.

Trash! The unity of Nigeria lies in the hands of the South East. This is not just mere words, but by 2023 you’ll begin to understand this.

only the north and the west a born to rule Nigeria right?

Dedetwo:
You could not be more correct. The generation ahead of me did absolute nothing to give me a country I can call home. I am bent on not allowing such scenario to befall the generation behind me. The shithole called Nigeria is a dead-end and must be scrapped.

So sad... Imagine knowing fully well that you don't have a home despite having a rich and beautiful country. This cannot continue, mbanu

This call is belated...cause power is being rotated already....from Obj to Yar'adua...to GEJ & back to PMB...now where do we miss it?...nonsense!

but that's what restructuring and regional government will do Na ... Every body use what you have and develop yourself , the states can only give a stipend to the FG maybe in form of tax

In case we wake up one day and our government have sold us to China, please call me Chung Li ��, what will I call you ?

how do you call a sectional government unity. you call the south east all sort of names yet you wouldnt want them to go. if you can not include the south east in a unified government then we should stop preaching unity. there is no unity in this country we are surviving by the grace of GOD. I Thank GOD that the jeopardy of this country since 1999 has been between the north , west and South until power get to the east then we will know who ruled better.

Give Africa to the Europeans, these jackasses would have been shouting the moronic "Black Lives Matter" by now. I wish the Africans realize what Almighty has given to them as in Africa.

Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.

Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of nigeria;

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence Staff was from SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
The University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!

Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!

Out of all the most senior officers in nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.

*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*.

WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES in nigeria TODAY:

The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in nigeria. in their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.

Ok

YorubaLord:
BASTARD! He should STFU! These are the mofos that wrecked this nation.

Btw... Y'all should go out there and march with Sowore.

REVOLUTION now or never!

Sowore is confusing and unstable in his actions and motives. I don’t trust his intentions any longer.

Aptly stated.

Parliamentary is the only solution.
It was greediness and envy of America without understanding architecture of America that pushed us to adopt democracy type of government.

All these old politicos are yet to realise the old order no more enough.

There self serving political experiments (Parliamentary or Presidential) have failed us and have turned the nation into a junkyard of mismanaged economy, youth violence and crime.

We want a new order in which restructuring must be the bait agenda.

After that we must decide to split or not.

all what you are clamouring can easily be achieved under parliamentary type of government

No way bros, we want restructuring.

We tried before, it didn't werk. It ended in our politicos enriching themselves and their unborn generations.

Again in Falz voice: "Ko le werk".

NIGERIA SHOULD BE RUN ON A CONFEDERAL STRUCTURE.

With each regional government having AUTONOMY to determine its economic and political future.

Too late. We want out.

U have already commenced 2023 Presidential election campaign. What an effort in futility.

If the so called leaders were just and fair, and treated everyone equally to The best of their abilities no one would be talking of being marginalized. But that's a story for another day.

35824L:

that is not power rotation. Until Igbos and middle belt produce president

They should start getting used to the idea rest of Nigeria is NEVER voting for Ibo, this is a democracy. Unless both parties field ibo candidates, which is never going to happen because APC is not so stupid as to field an ibo candidate even if by some miracle PDP fields an Ibo candidate. APC knows all the ibo votes will still go to PDP so why would APC risk losing SW and Northern votes for the sake of SE that will never vote for them? So they can continue crying marginalisation or Biafra all they want. They are the architects of their predicament.

Officers mostly from South-south were responsible for the coup and killings with few Southeasterners and Southwesterners. The only reason it was called Igbo coup is because majority were Igbo speaking from South-south whom today you are quick to deny their Igbo roots. I wouldn't have quoted you if you didn't mention Southeast.

I must admit that I'm familiar with the historical events you highlighted above n they are true,other parts of the country also had their faults too, I'm not igbo matter of fact, I'm from NC Nigeria so my view is not pro igbo but pro national,it was the late lucky Dube that said "don't look to past,it will make you pasteristic,look to the future it will make you futuristic"the past is gone but tommorow is still ahead,yes we need the past to guide us today towards tommorow,for equity n national inclusiveness , peace and progress,the SE should be given the presidency in 2023, after 1992 the SW formed Radio kudirat n NADECO with their attendant problematic activities yet they were considered in 1999 so why not the SE after all these years?.
