SHUTTING DOWN THE RESTRUCTURING CONSENSUS WILL PUSH NIGERIAN TOWARDS UNILATETAL REGIONAL ACTIONS - LNC


By this position now taken by the President on the raging debate on Restructuring of Nigeria, it is obvious that the Proprietors of the Master-Servant Nigeria, defined by the fraudulent 1999 Constitution, have just declared  Nonnegotiable, the Apartheid-like oppressive and obnoxious Constitutional Structures, imposed on the rest of Nigeria by those who in 1966, truncated the Federal basis of Nigeria, and who by various Decrees, made the 1979 and 1999 so-called "Constitutions", in which we now have 36 mostly unviable States 774 lame, spoonfed Local Government Areas; a Quota System that coronates Mediocrity and humiliates Excellence; an Accounting System that creates a massive Framework for Corruption and  Comprehensively protects the beneficiaries of Corruption via a blanket Immunity Clause; that erects a 68-Item Federal Exclusive Legislative List which comprehensively Hijack and Confiscate both the Assets of Federating Units and the Right to Work those Assets, amongst many other heinous provisions and which criminally foists the authorship of the Fraudulent Constitution 1999 on "We the People" at its Preamble, even as the claim is self-evidently false on the face of Decree No. 24 of 1999 that birthed that Fraudulent Constitution.

It is beyond debate that the Constituent Components of the Nigerian Union of today are basically entrapped in the Nigerian Union, for which reason they seek a Grand Renegotiation of the Terms of the dying Federation. It is the Campaign for that Grand Renegotiation that has been framed as "Restructuring".

The Constitutional Grievances outlined hereinbefore are also directly responsible for the now ubiquitous Centrifugal exertions by sections of the Nigerian Country which have become totally fed up with the current imposed definition of the Union, to extricate themselves from what has become for them, a toxic Union  of Attrition.

It is plain logic that if instead of honestly and meaningfully engaging these well known, undeniable Constitutional Grievances, we choose to operate in denial, that action as depicted by this bold Sun Newspaper headline of today January, 1st 2017, translates directly to a repudiation of the Union of Nigeria by the Government of the day.

By this brinkmanship approach, it goes without saying that the Sovereignty Disputations arising from the aforementioned Constitutional Grievances can only be forced in the direction of Unilaterally actions by the aggrieved Regions instead of the consensual resolution mechanism offered by the Restructuring now being jettisoned cavalierly by the President.

The LNC invites all Stakeholders to take a sober review of the entire situation, speak out clearly and brace up to collectively advance the more viable option towards resolving the longstanding National Question. Silence or neutrality on this debate, will be reckoned as a vote for the position taken by the President in his 2018 New Year Speech.
