Senate President, Ahmed Lawan Lands In Trouble For Blasting Southern Governors Over Restructuring

TRIXX NG reports that the senate president of Nigeria, Ahmed Lawan is in fresh crisis after he bemoaned the southern governors for calling for restructuring of Nigeria.

The governors had in a meeting requested that President Muhammadu Buhari restructures the country due to some of the things that have been happening latetly, in a way to bring peace to the people.

Lawan in his response noted that elected officials should be the ones to lead the call for restructuring in Nigeria, while the speaker of the house of representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila noted that governors should join the call for restructuring in Nigeria.

Angered by this, some Nigerians have called out the duo on their social media and expressed their disappointment in them.

Senate president, Lawan, knocks Southern govs over call for restructuring. With this knocks from a legislative leader shows that the proposed amendment of the 1990 constitution is a scam. Ndi one Nigeria hope y’all are seeing this. There’s no mekwatarism no matter how you try.

If restructuring is made impossible during APC's 8 wasted years, it would be done after they've gone into extinction.

Lawan and Buhari won't be there for long, not even with this brashness.

Senate president Lawan blast Southern governors over call for restructuring.

Why are Northerners scared of restructuring?, why are they against banning of open grazing in Southern Nigeria?, are they ok with with how Fulani herdsmen are destroying farmlands?. Something is wrong.

It's understandable if Ahmed Lawan is against restructuring but how can Femi Gbajabiamila be against restructuring? is Femi Gbaja not Omo Ale like this?

Meanwhile APC promised to restructure Nigeria during their campaigns in 2015.

This country is too rotten

How does Lawan expect Southern Governors to restructure their states when they are not in control of their resources FG monopolised on the exclusive and concurrent lists?

Lawan (PhD, CON) indeed. 🤡

You wonder why LAWMA, oh sorry LAWAN and other voices behind the scene are fighting against RESTRUCTURING?

2020 IGR:
Northern Nigeria: ₦385.18bn
Southern Nigeria: ₦920.89bn

Voice of Gbaja and Lawan, hands of Buhari.

Southern Governors have agreed on restructuring, and no going back on that decision. It's either you restructure now or wait till when the governors call for self-determination themselves.

Lawan and Gbaja body language makes Buhari comfortable and sleepy. Hey! that shouldn't be!.

Me: their jobs are to make sure the President is functioning to maximum capacity.
