BEVERLY HILLS, November 02, (THEWILL) – The founder, Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare on Monday said pressure must be put on the government of President Buhari to restructure Nigeria very fast.
Bakare, in an interview on Arise TV said restructuring of Nigeria did not mean a break-up of the nation, but a complete re-engineering of the nation’s architecture for things to work and move forward. He said any constitution that could not be bent must have to be broken for things to move forward, saying that the nation’s constitution must be bent for the aspiration of the people.
Pastor Bakare said, the presidency must be more responsive to the yearnings of the people, stressing that restructuring is not a new concept, as it would make for more productivity in the nation.
“We need to restructure this nation very fast. This nation is bleeding from all spots. it is time for each state to stop going to Abuja to get crumbs. We must restructure. Pressure must be put on the government to sit with the people on how to re-engineer this nation. A constitution that cannot be bent will be broken”, he said.
Bakare said recommendations from the 2014 National Conference would have helped a lot if it had not been abandoned. He recalled that in 2018, the Nasir El-Rufai’s Committee came up with good recommendations on restructuring, but that nothing had been done on it since then.
