The governors from the Southern part of Nigeria has today in a joint meeting held at the governor’s lodge of the Delta State resolved to give their total support to the continuity of one Nigeria, and agree that, to solve the many problems facing the country, there should be need for genuine restructuring of the country.

The governors added in their communique that; “the process of the nation requires that urgent and bold steps be taken to restructure the Nigerian federation leading to the evolution of state police, review of revenue allocation formula in favor of the sub-national government and creators of other institutions which legitimately advance our commitment to and practice of true federalism.”

Reacting after the meeting, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State said; “Today, we attended the meeting of Southern States’ Governors in Delta State. We discussed various national issues including security and restructuring. In view of the incursions of armed herders, criminals and bandits, we resolved to ban open grazing in all of Southern Nigeria.”

“We agreed that Nigeria needs to be restructured to reflect true federalism leading to state policing and a change in the revenue allocation formula of the nation. We also recommended the establishment of ports in other states to address the congestion of the Apapa Port.”

“We advised the Federal Government to convoke a National Dialogue to address greater inclusiveness in existing governance arrangements. We also recommended a review of appointments into Federal Government agencies including security agencies to reflect federal character.”
