Atiku: My Government Will Devolve Power To States by Yobuwa: 8:11am On Nov 18, 2022
The Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has promised that if elected in the 2023 elections, he will support legislative measures transferring more power to other tiers of government.

Atiku made the pledge at an interactive session with members of the Nigerian Guild of Editors in Lagos on Wednesday. Correcting the misinterpretations of his comments on restructuring at a parley with the Lagos Business School Alumni Association, the former vice president said, “It is rather unfortunate that a section of the media reported my remarks at an event yesterday (Tuesday) which casts doubts on my readiness to implement my restructuring agenda.

“Let me therefore take advantage of today’s gathering of Nigerian media gatekeepers to state unequivocally that my restructuring agenda is intact and will be implemented from my first day in office.”

“Already, I have received a report from a team of constitutional law experts that I assembled to look into our constitution and highlight areas where there are items that can be moved to the concurrent and residual lists of the constitution.

“Let me assure you that if I am elected president next year, I will begin working on the implementation of that report on my very first day in office.”

Atiku, while fielding questions from the editors, said his government would work in sync with the private sector to fill the infrastructural gaps in the country.

So governors don't even have that powers and they are this powerful. What will now happen when power devolved to states. The governors will kill their opposition members and nothing will happen..

Atiku will promise anything to achieve his goal and just as always, he'll keep none. He has no integrity whatsoever left in him.

There is.

Only that we just pretend to know our country while we do not know what our constitution says.


I bet you know US constitution than that of our dear nation.

We have REPS,through which our voice is heard by the centre and they serve as our eyes and ears.

Why not holding townhall meeting every specific time with your both REPS and STATE MEMBERS OF ASSEMBLY?

You just want them to spread money or execute a project,as if they are executive arm of government.

The purpose of both state and national assemly is to echo the voices of the people and represent them.
