Atiku will truly Restructure Nigeria

Now, I got this from a friend....I was in a seminar in May this year where Atiku was present. He was asked to tell Nigerians how he planned restructuring Nigeria in the first one year in practical ways not just rhetorics.

I was marvelled how Atiku responded.

Atiku said that restructuring Nigeria is not rocket science.
He made it categorically clear that the first major step at restructuring the country is to DECONGEST THE EXCLUSIVE LIST—handing over some of federal government responsibilities to states through constitutional amendment.

He went further by saying that through the same constitutional amendment, some of the states responsibilities will be given to local governments that would become independent through the same alterations of the constitution.
He said that this is one of the major reasons he would see National Assembly as partners in rebuilding Nigeria not political enemies.

From that day on, Atiku won my heart.
He made all the postulations extemporaneously—without a written speech.
It was during Q & A session.
I have never seen any aspirant explain this bogus term of "restructuring" in manner that a layman on the street will understand it.

He was able to provide solutions to restructuring agitation in less than 20 minutes.
That's mental sagacity combined with economic sophistication at work.

We need a realist and pragmatist as president.

My conclusion, Get Atikulated!

PDP To Buhari: Prosecute Other APC Leaders, Not Only Babachir Lawal

Press Statement PDP To Buhari: Prosecute Other APC Leaders, Not Only Babachir Lawal The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) charges President Muhammadu Buhari to go beyond the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal and former Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) and prosecute other leaders of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), who have been openly indicted of corruption. The party says that singling out Babachir Lawal and Ayodele Oke, for prosecution, while providing official cover to numerous other indicted APC leaders and persons close to him, President Buhari has further confirmed that he is indeed partisan and insincere in prosecuting the anti-corruption fight. Moreover, the fact that, according to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Mr. President had to give his nod before Babachir and Oke could be prosecuted, also goes to further confirm that President Buhari has annexed the system and directly determines wh

CJN’s suspension: A dictator bares his fangs

Image
Punch Editorial Yesterday, President Muhammadu Buhari surrendered all pretence to the rule of law and constitutional democracy by sacking the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen. Unilaterally and in flagrant violation of the Constitution, he also swore in Tanko Muhammad as the new acting CJN. By this act, the President has precipitated needless confusion in the polity. A shocking action, it will aggravate tension ahead of the general election in February and March. This poses a great peril to our democracy. Though the President defended his action by citing an order from the Code of Conduct Tribunal directing Onnoghen’s suspension, his action is akin to a coup – a judicial coup in this case. In a subtle way, the President has suspended in part an integral part of the judiciary by illegally intimidating its highest symbol and shamefully deposing him. This undemocratic and high-handed approach advertises Buhari as an anarchist in a civil garb. Onnoghen’s travails began lat

A Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have raised the alarm about plot to destabilise the leadership of the National Assembly tomorrow. Briefing journalists about the alleged plot yesterday in Abuja, CUPP spokesman, Ikenga Ugochinyere, disclosed that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government has released funds for the plan. He disclosed that the plot would result in the emergence of the Senate leader Ahmed Lawan, as Senate President, while Femi Gbajabiamila would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives. In a related development, the PDP has alerted of moves by the presidency to bribe Senators of the APC extraction to protect President Muhammadu Buhari from imminent parliamentary sanctions for constitutional breaches and gross misconduct. The party said this in a statement yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan. He claimed that intelligence available to it showed that the lawmake
