There is a news report of Nigeria’s Justice Minister lamenting how the Nigerian Government’s centralized payment system is fraught with difficulties and therefore breeds unfathomable corruption:
That lamentation offers a glimpse into the vast ocean of other difficulties emanating from the overcentralized system that Nigeria has operated for decades since the 1979 imposition of a Unitary Constitution over an inevitably Federal Union.
It is now past debate that the Unitary Constitutional Arrangements of Nigeria are responsible for every centralized system, including Security (Police), Elections (INEC), the Economy, the Justice System (especially at the appellate level), Electricity (PHCN National Grid), Infrastructure, Contract Payments, and a long list of other matters wrought by the 68-Item Federal Exclusive List of the 1999 Constitution.
The centralized system creates massive chokeholds and bottlenecks, gross inefficiencies, and massive corruption.
This is the principal reason Nigeria is where it is today — at the port of abysmal failure and multidimensional dysfunction; the global capital for poverty, an incinerator of talent; a disgrace to Africa and the Black Man; and a huge liability to the trapped constituents called “Nigerians.”
Those who swear to defend and uphold that Unitary Constitution of Nigeria are the gatekeepers of the great evils just outlined. Tragically, all the political parties in Nigeria subscribe to that Constitution and mobilize themselves for elections under it, fielding candidates.
The populace that troops out to elections every four years under that Constitution are the enablers of these great evils and therefore complicit in their own damnation. While political merchants and candidates enter their humongous benefits the day after elections as elected office holders and appointees, the masses who voted them head back home to their misery, poverty, and hopelessness — waiting for their turn to be slaughtered across the vast killing fields Nigeria has become.
What is the solution to all these, and what can the people do to enact it? — We MUST break the cycle of elections that renew and reinforce the life of that Constitution.
This can be done immediately by demanding the suspension of the voyage to another round of national elections in 2027 under the 1999 Constitution AND insisting on the initiation of an immediate transitioning process to rework the damaged constitutional basis of Nigeria that is sliding rapidly into chaos and violent disintegration.
The Five-Point Proposition of NINAS Constitutional Force Majeure offers Nigeria and Nigerians the most viable, most orderly, and most immediate mechanism and framework for undertaking this urgently required constitutional reconfiguration in a process that can be concluded within 12 to 15 months from start to finish — including referendums — and which could deliver a proper federation, a confederation, or the emergence of independent successor sovereign state entities, depending on the outcome of those referendums.
The situation is made more urgent by escalating killings across Nigeria and the ongoing intervention of the United States in Nigeria aimed at halting the genocidal-scale ethnoreligious killings and terror being orchestrated Jihad-style by murderous Fulani invaders masquerading as herdsmen.
The kickstart required now is for the peoples of Nigeria, at home and abroad — including the self-determination agitation platforms, ethnic nationality socio-political platforms, civil society organizations, religious leaders, organized labour, the organized business community, the Nigerian Bar Association, professional bodies, women and youth organizations, and Nigerians in the diaspora — TO STEP FORWARD to reject the continued operation of the 1999 Constitution by demanding the immediate suspension of preparations for the already doomed 2027 elections AND the initiation of a transitioning process to renegotiate and rework the damaged constitutional basis of Nigeria.
