ABUJA— Former Vice President and a chieftain of ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Atiku Abubakar, has suggested the use of the nation’s six geo-political zones as federating units rather than the current 36-state structure, many of which he declared unviable. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/05/abolish-states-adopt-6-geo-political-zones-federating-units-atiku/ 7 Likes 1 Share

A suggestion from him. But the main problem in this country is lack of good leaders. Every regions have no good leaders. The country suppose to be divided and be separated. One nigeria is obviously a failure. 72 Likes 3 Shares |

In the spirit of not ignoring the message because of the character of the messenger, this is the way to go. Restructuring is NOT because of ethnicity but SERVES TO hardwire efficient public administration and National Development Planning. Outside of this the current system encourages 'rent seeking'. structural growth works intensely better at Local, Regional and National level and not Local, State and National. If we need a high speed train from Lagos to Ilorin, how does that get done unless FG intervenes (fat chance), whereas on a regional level it's easy-peasy. The amount of wasted funds spent on Government functionaries in every state is absurd particularly in a developing country like ours. A bank in Nigeria just increased its customer base by about 1.7M without opening an additional branch, Brick and Mortar government costs more money and is less efficient in this day and age. 'Young People' you are toying with decisions that will affect you when you are 'Old People' and the people that made the decision have since left to the other side. 38 Likes 2 Shares |

The entire 36 states in Nigeria are a waste of time and money, they should be all abolished because Regions are much better and cost effective. The only place I differ with Atiku is the adoption of the 6 geopolitical zones as the federating Regions. I think that a referendum should be held to allow people decide what Region they want to join. Also, each Region will have right of secession. 98 Likes 8 Shares |

mr1759:OK that is your only problem abi? So you never kill the kite but you have started having problem with the shearing. SS is definitely the only region I know that will be on fire if given autonomy. Delta state is the only state that is shouting for transfer of their capital from Asaba to another city.

If the six geo-political zones are adopted as federating units, there is bound to be more resources for development. It's restructuring in another form 6 Likes |

We don't have to abolish states to implement regions same way we didn't abolish LGs to implement states. But without question regionalization is the only way forward. I was in Kaduna and Kano some months ago. In Kaduna at the central area, you have some tall buildings mostly built in the 60s that depict the glory days of the city. In Kano, you have some wonderful buildings mostly built in the 60s. Then you have numerous warehouses in Bombay industrial layout also from the 60s that indicate that it thrived greatly in an era before this. There are hardly any new quality buildings in these two cities for the last 40 years. Isn't it a clear indication that regionalism favored the North and the oil has not benefited it in any way? Why then would its leaders be opposed to 26 Likes 3 Shares |
