This is the dictator that will help us to restructure this country. How do we get him, I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe allocation of resources is to be addressed. All these are against some regions. The number of Local governments in your states determine the resources you get.<\/p>\n<p>Banire, while speaking on the way out of the present challenges facing the country, suggested that there must be inclusiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere must be inclusiveness. Under the civilian administration, there will still be injustice; the same thing happened under the Jonathan administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome of our brothers will say it can be done by divine intervention and Allah has warned us that He will not change the condition of people unless they change their ways. I used to be a nationalist, from what I said, it has even happened to me. I am a victim.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe now have to go back to the regional government. Let each region develop on its own phase so as to address the agitations. So my conclusion is that we are at a crossroads. let us outsource the management of Nigeria to an external body\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
