Don't believe these fools. For your information, Nigeria is already blessed by God. These thorns must be weeded off our soil for that blessing to be enjoyed. Garba Shehu is fooling many.

No political party in the history of Nigeria had deceived people to gain power like the apc. A house built on lies can't last and that's why I'm not surprised at the recent happenings in that party, with different groups already emerging, even planning to form a new political party when 2023 is still 2 years away. It's expected.

Ahead of 2015 election, i heard them clearly on their stance on restructuring. They said it's top on their agenda. History no dey lie, Google would assist you on this. Don't fall for his foolish talks

IF THE YORUBA HAD WAITED FOR THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TO GIVE THEM "AMOTEKUN" fowl will get teeth.

Thank God they took the bull by the horn forget Abuja and declare the establishment of the Amotekun Corp.

I forsee a situation in the future where more state governors especially in the south will be bold to take federal powers by force especially if a southern President is in power.

The way forward,

Come 2023,

We are not voting any ass politician, youth should rise up to this call,

Until we get our demands, such as restructuring at the front burner, constitutional review( 47 northerners cannot write a skewed constitution for the whole country to adopt)

Infact, nobody should register for voters card, destroy all your existing voters card, these politicians dont deserve any vote until our demands are met

is obvious our oil revenue can no longer sustain our budgets because of short fall in demand and other reasons. if this continues what will be the faith of this country in fifty years to come? so we need to restructure this country for good.

To restructure Nigeria, 2/3 of the national house of assembly needs to approve.
The present composition of Nigeria per geopolitical zones are:
North West - 7 states
North Central - 6 states
North East - 6 states
South West - 6 states
South East - 5 states
South South - 6 states
Each state has 3 senators, plus 1 from the FCT and house of rep members vary per state but the total of 109 senators and 360 house of rep members

2/3 means 73 senators and 240 house of rep members.
For this to happen, the southern geopolitical zones need to be 100% united and get help from some North Central (a.k.a Middle Belt) states.

Theoretically, it can happen. Practically, it is almost impossible mostly due to politics. These National Assembly Members know if they vote to restructure, that is the end of their largesse hence their absolute commitment to One Nigeria. They are not revolutionaries, they love, enjoy and benefit from the status quo, they want things to remain as they are. In addition, those of a Northern Extraction, as a matter of survival, will never vote to restructure.

So Garba Shehu knows exactly what he is doing when he is telling agitators to goto the National Assembly. I do not see a peaceful resolution to restructuring or splitting Nigeria which is why I will continue to state, the Southern region (especially my region the Southwest) needs be ready for any type of scenario.

Si vis pacem, para bellum - if you want peace, prepare for war.

Garba Shehu, you are cultivating Arewa Republic.

National Assembly can’t restructure Nigeria politically, because National Assembly is overpopulated by Arewa Reps due to the excess number of states created by Arewa soldiers in Arewa area.

In bold above is where you nailed it.

Most of the northern legislators will never vote for political restructuring.

States were proliferated in the old northern region by northern military dictators. That gave rise to lopsided political representation favoring north greatly.

Garba Shehu is taking the people asking for political restructuring for a ride.


Political restructuring is usually done in a National Conference, whatever the conference recommends is put into law by the National Assembly.

My brother, Lalaticlala, read and understand whatever you are citing before publishing... President Buhari is opposed to any restructuring that has to do with replacing the current presidential system, not against restructuring itself... You see, that's the problem with this restructuring of a thing. Everyone has their own definition of restructuring... Some want the parliamentary system of government, some want regionalism, some want resource control, some want the monarchical system, etc. Which makes the whole thing difficult to achieve...

See screenshot of an article from one of the links you provided to have a better grasp of what the President meant...

God bless Nigeria.
And you believe Buhari understand what he said there? Because going by his body language is obvious he is not interested in restructuring, how do you expect an ethnic and tribal bigot to restructure the country? Gradually people are getting wiser by the day ,you guy's should continue to deceive yourself until when it becomes too late for change, the unity favour the northern part of Nigeria more than it favour the of the country. Buhari should be more worried that he destroying the same system that favours his region .

Thank you iare garba. This this time you are straight forward.

Don't mind Nigerians, they are still living in denial thinking somebody is still active and intelligent to shoulder such big project like restructuring when it is not allocation of cows to herdsmen.

My brother, stop asking why he didn't come clean, instead, go back and read those articles, and don't misquote the president next time...

Widespread consensus? That's the business of the legislature, not Buhari... Buhari is just the President. His duties, among others, are to execute the law and assent to bills... He gave his own opinion that the Presidential system should not be changed, but instead be developed to a world-class standard... Like that of the United States or even better... That's still restructuring... Those calling for parliamentary system are few, by the way... And there are several calls for different kinds of restructuring which should be debated on the floor of the house... So I don't know what your issue is with President Buhari, my brother.

May God help us.
at what point did the president becomes incapacitated to issues of national importance? That a man who has been ruling like a dictator for the past 6years ,but I know you are trying to be politically correct ,i can understand that .but we should stop deceiving and telling ourselves lies it will help nobody.
