Hope MURIC, zombies will not call him IPOB? Nigeria have been sitting on a defective structural, economic, educational and constitutional foundation.We are going no where except the needful is done.

Is it the job of the presidency to restructure Nigeria, or the National Assembly? Go and study more & stop showing your ignorance.

Paperwhite:
The government including Osinbajo & Bola Tinubu that vigorously campaigned with restructuring should fulfilled their promise.Abi did Nigerians forced them to campaign with it? The ability to keep you word makes you more credible.

Actually I can’t speak for you, not everyone is a Mumu to fall for that elementary charade, you can fool some people sometimes, but you can’t fool all the people all the time, some people cannot think for themselves, and need people to think on their behalf, go and study to find yourself approved.

I did oga.Their word is their promise, so let them see to it.Whether the government will tell their NASS members to raise the motion to that effect or the president will send a request to that effect.They have a constitutional contract with the electorate.

Why did them went to form the El Rufai committee instead of directing the national assembly to do the needful? What has happened since then.This is to tell you they are not serious.

My Guy Who are you fooling? Does the presidency control the National Assembly? Separation of power.......

28. Amending the Nigerian Constitution to ensure devolution of powers, duties, and responsibilities to states in order to entrench true Federalism – FAILED#

President Buhari and the APC have continuously mocked proponents of restructuring and have denied they ever made the promise.

My Guy Who are you fooling? Does the presidency control the National Assembly? Separation of power, They are playing politics, pdp will not agree to anything brought forward by APC, so stop all the dancing in the market square in the name of restructuring, pdp was there for 16 years why did they not restructure Nigeria? Why did Jonathan wait till 2014 to call a pdp handpicked Constitutional conference? used it as a way to solicit support for 2015 election that he still lost? Please you can keep deceiving yourself with all these restructure crap, it is just a lame excuse for our failure, if they gave you Richard Hamilton’s Mercedes Benz, you still will not win 1 F1 race.

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has advised the Federal Government to give Nigeria a lasting solution to secession agitations and its economic challenges by restructuring the country.

According to Adeboye, the restructuring of the country must be done “as soon as possible” to forestall a breakup of the various socio-ethnic components that make up Nigeria.

The 78-year-old cleric stated this on Saturday at a 60th Independence Day Celebration Symposium co-organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God and the Nehemiah Leadership Institute.

At the symposium with the theme, ‘Where will Nigeria be in 2060?’ monitored by The PUNCH, Adeboye proposed the adoption of a merger of the British style of government and the American system of government to pave the way for Nigeria’s future.

The former lecturer at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Lagos said, “Why can’t we have a system of government that is 100 per cent Nigerian, unique to us? For example, we started on with the British system of government, somewhere along the line, we moved over to the American system of government.

“Can’t we have a combination of both and see whether it could help us solve our problems because in Mathematics if you want to solve a problem, you try what we call Real Analysis, then if it doesn’t work, then you move on to Complex Analysis and see whether that will help you. If that fails, you move on to Vector Analysis and so on.

“I believe that we might want to look at the problems of Nigeria in a slightly different manner. Some people feel that all our problems will be over if Nigeria should break up. I think that is trying to solve the problems of Nigeria as if it is a Simple Equation. The problems of Nigeria will require quite a bit of Simultaneous Equation and some of them are not going to be Linear either – forgive me I am talking as a Mathematician.

“Why can’t we have a system of government that will create what I will call the United States of Nigeria? Let me explain. We all know that we must restructure. It is either we restructure or we break, you don’t have to be a prophet to know that one. That is certain – restructure or we break up.
“Now, we don’t want to break up, God forbid. In restructuring, why don’t we have a Nigerian kind of democracy? At the federal level, why don’t we have a President and a Prime Minister?

“If we have a President and a Prime Minister and we share responsibilities between these two so that one is not an appendage to the other. For examples, if the President controls the Army and the Prime Minister controls the Police. If the President controls resources likes oil and mining and the Prime Minister controls finance and inland revenue, taxes, customs etc. You just divide responsibilities between the two.


“At the state level, you have the governor and the premier, and the same way, you distribute responsibilities between these people in such a manner that one cannot really go without the other. Maybe we might begin to tackle the problems.”

Adeboye noted that the place of traditional rulers must be recognised and restored in governance.

He added, “If we are going to adopt the model, then we need to urgently restore the House of Chiefs. I have a feeling that one of our major problems is that we have pushed the traditional rulers to the background and I believe that is a great error particularly for a great country like Nigeria.

“I find it very ridiculous that one will ask a traditional ruler to inform the chairman of his local government before he travels.

“Go to any town in Nigeria, everybody in the town knows the paramount ruler in the town and they respect him (but) many of them don’t even know the name of the chairman of their local government.

“The traditional rulers are the actual landlords, they control the respect of their people. Their people will listen to them much more, I am sorry to say, than they will listen to some politicians.”

“Without any doubt, we must restructure and do it as soon as possible. A United States of Nigeria is likely to survive than our present structure,” he
concluded.

Fooling no one! You talking about separation of power with the govt controlled rubberstamp NASS in this current dispensation? Laughing!


https://www.thecable.ng/promoted-behold-the-62-failed-2015-election-campaign-promises-of-muhammadu-buhari-and-apc

The government is rather the one taking Nigerians for fools because there dont want the people the people to hold them accountable as even the NASS is collaborating with the govt to gag the populace to prevent even constructive criticism via the social media/hate speech bill.

Paperwhite:

Then the shame is on them & the electorate that take their words for it because they were staunch restructurng advocates in the time past.Just as Tinubu once said he does not believes in one Nigeria before but has today made a U-turn because he is benefiting from the fraud of one Nigeria.

NIGilliterate:


Restructuring cannot work because the same problems will be there with the same people creating the problem

Easternmind:
Ok,very well from E.A Adeboye

blacknp:
With all due respect, only kids under 18, or political mumus would have paid any attention to those words of purported promises, a person cannot give what he hasn’t, the dancing chair had changed asses, clueless Jonathan had to go.

blacknp:
Thank You, most people have not read the Constitution of 1999 as Amended, nothing wrong with our constitution, interpretation & implementation of the constitution is the problem, even if they gave Nigeria Switzerland’s Constitution, & The United States enterprise, Nigeria will still be a failed state.
