Presidential Or Parliamentary System: What Can Work For Nigeria? Our endless search for solutions to our self-inflicted problems has become comical. We appear to be in a merry-go-round, trying one idea after the other. Restructuring. State Police. Fiscal Federalism. More States. Float the Naira. Managed Float. Privatization. Structural Adjustment. Sovereign National Conference. Military or civilian government. Commodity Boards. Price Control. Close Borders. Open Borders. Just about everything has been suggested as a panacea for our problems. Last week, a group of lawmakers in Abuja proposed a constitutional change to return the country to a parliamentary system of democracy, over half a century after we dumped it. They claimed that the presidential system was too expensive. https://lnkd.in/erUT-nSe #News #Trends #Trending #primebusinessafrica #fyp #Newsupdate #Latestnews

Hmmm, under the 1999 Constitution Section 6 (6) (c) - (Judicial Powers shall Not) Nigerian Government or Leaders cannot be held accountable as the Courts are prohibited from entertaining questions from the citizens about why Leaders cannot provide all the benefits promised in Chapter 2 of the 1999 Constitution. The 1999 Constitution must be completely jettisoned for us to answer the National Question. The Government of Nigeria has been avoiding this question ❓ since 1966. Do we still want to be in the same Union called Nigeria? If yes, what are the terms? Or put differently, Do we still want to Federate? If yes, what are the terms? Until we agree to face our number one challenge that the 1914 Annexation aka Amalgamation of the South and North is not working, Nigeria will continue to go from pillar to post and back 👉from one place to another unceremoniously or fruitlessly.

As regional Civil Society Organizations dedicated to the prosperity and development of the region, we are deeply concerned about the political and security crises and the risk to the unity and cohesion of the Community. In light of these, CSOs in the region held a consultation summit on July 1, 2024, ahead of the ECOWAS Heads of State Summit to deliberate on a common citizens' position on these concerns and propose recommendations that seek to enhance ECOWAS’ normative framework, as well as formulate citizens’ agenda to form part of the discussions by the Authority of Heads of State and Government of ECOWAS at the forthcoming 65th Ordinary Session in Abuja, Nigeria.

Read with me section 14 (subsection 1 & 2 a,b,c) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as Amended: Section 14 (1) The Federal Republic of Nigeria shall be a State based on the principles of democracy and social justice. (2) It is hereby, accordingly, declared that: (A) sovereignty belongs to the people of Nigeria from whom government through this Constitution derives all its powers and authority; (B) the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government; (C ) and the participation by the people in their government shall be ensured in accordance with the provisions of this Constitution. Enough is Enough 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 End Bad Governance in Nigeria 💥💥💥💥

Local government autonomy is a vital topic that has sparked intense debates and discussions in Nigeria. It is a constitutional provision that grants local governments independence and self-governance, enabling them to manage their affairs and resources without undue interference from state or federal governments. By granting local governments autonomy, Nigeria can harness the potential of grassroots governance, promote democratic development, and improve the lives of citizens at the local level.

Did you know? The president has the power to issue a proclamation of state of emergency when; - Nigeria is at war - Where Nigeria is in imminent danger of an invasion or any activity that involves a state of war - Where there is an actual break down of public order or safety in the country that requires extreme measures to restore peace and order - Where there is an occurrence of any natural disaster or calamity affecting a community in Nigeria or a part of that community. These situations are to follow the procedures laid down in Section 305 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999.

To Nigerians: Growing your compassionate localised dense well equipped proactive agile HONEST SECURITY is better than letting murderous RETARDed crooks help colonial murderous RETARDs treat your country as a colonial county that is murdered and subjugated and sapped and murdered and subjugated and sapped and murdered and subjugated and sapped. If you believe Nigeria is INDEPENDENT, then INDEPENDENTLY BELIEVE that you do not need the murderous RETARD in UK or the murderous RETARD in USA to pretend to cry crocodile tears for the victims of terrorists in Nigeria while they were strengthening the military coup murderous RETARD, Buhari, against innocent Nigerians, before you INDEPENDENTLY GROW your HONEST SECURITY. Nigeria is NOT a county of UK or of USA, to the PERPETUAL SHAME of the murderous RETARD in UK and of the murderous RETARD in USA. Not even suffering manipulating the elections through electronic means and financial corruption, and outright international cronyism selecting Nigerian "presidents/dictators", disrespecting the right and voices of the victims of terrorists to CHOOSE leaders who DO NOT help terrorists, should stand against your INDEPENDENTLY GROWING your HONEST SECURITY to SECURE your people against terrorists. No RETARD in USA is found keeping the USA police centralised in Washington DC, so badly, that terrorists operate for hours and for consecutive days, and the local people would be defenceless, helpless, flowing into neighbouring countries as refugees, with senators crying that their constituents now reside in another country, accordingly.
