Chairman of the Forum and Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi, who speaking at a national dialogue and book presentation in Abuja, said Nigeria was also ripe for restructuring. He also noted that on revenue collection and sharing should be reviewed in favour of the states, given the argument of decentralized responsibilities to the sub-nationals.
Fayemi observed that the nation’s federal system has not served the best interests of citizens because it is devoid of devolution of power, decentralization and true federalism.
The Governor however, supported the suggestion by former Chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC Attahiru Jega that these matters have to be addressed squarely, but dispassionately.
