Restructuring: The Future Of Every Nation Is Negotiable – Ofeimun

Author, poet and activist, Mr Odia Ofeimun, blamed the call for restructuring by some group leaders on the absence of structured governance and lack of adequate effort to plan and negotiate the future of the nation.

“It is possible to control the Nigerian situation. A country, without the structure to take proper decisions cannot plan. When they can’t plan, it means the daily run of events push them like the wind blowing paper. It is as if that kind of situation puts all of us in auto-pilot. Things are happening, but you cannot specifically pinpoint who is in control.”

Against the statement by President Muhammadu Buhari during his speech after return from medical vacation, where he noted that Nigeria’s unity is settled and not negotiable, Ofeimun said every country is a daily negotiation and that there is no particular period in the life of a country which is not negotiable.
