Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately convoke a Sovereign National Conference to address the numerous problems facing the nation.

Ezekwesili lamented that the nation at this crucial period of crippling political and social dangers needed a conference to address the thorny issues.

She said this had become inevitable in view of happenings in the country.

Ezekwesili said the problem now was whether the Nigerian government led by Buhari would be willing to hold such an important conference.

In her words: “Nigeria, at this time, the crippling political, economic and social dangers make the convocation of a Sovereign National Conversation inevitable.

“The question is whether President Muhammadu Buhari’s Nigerian government realizes the urgency or wishes to continue playing the ostrich and endanger Nigeria.

“I shall daily repeat that my tweet on need for urgent convoking of a Sovereign National Conversation.

“Wise minds know the Center and constituent parts are right now simply too wobbly.

“Better to keep reminding those who have chosen not to see how fast the country is sliding.”

It's obvious this country is divided ...our moral standards and expiration are wide apart

Some people just want to make paradise

While others want their country to be paradise

Break this country into two for heavens sake

Minister that never happened, say hi to Jay Boy for us...

Buhari will just organize a talkshow and do what he likes afterwards..
You need an independent body to do so.
Buhari should just conclude wasting 8 solid years of our national life and disappear to oblivion..

Abegii we don't want another jamboree conference...

What's the purpose of the committees in Senate and Rep?

With which money?
What happened to the one convoked by Jonathan?

A national conference cannot be convoked by a nepotistic leader like buhari. Very impossible future tense, which explains the enormous problems the country is witnessing today.

What happened to the one conveyed by Jonathan?

I tired oo. The last conference convened by GEJ, majority of the participants didn't even know what they discussed about while numbers of them were just sleeping through out the conference

atleast they have a report on their resolutions,why not do your research on the outcome of the conference

Buhari is not nationalistic and does not have the unity of the country in mind.

The problem of Nigeria has gone ed national conference!

Divide it now, let everyone answer their father name..

Buhari to immediately convoke a Sovereign National Conference

Wo all this Grammer is becoming unbecoming.

Don't confuse us into slavery..
Make it simple. Independence, at the end arenas are happy with nigeria, Yorubas are happy with oduduwa's Republic, Igbos are happy with IPOB and everybody is happy.

Lobatan!!! Which one is sovereign national conference, what do they even do there?

I hope with this few points of mine, I have been able to convince you and not to confuse you that independence is better than sovereign

I beg to differ because we cannot go that path again. We cannot be doing this every istration. Nigeria just needs to promote fairness, justice and equity.

A Fulani/Hausa cannot be allowed to carry a gun for his protection and when someone does it in the south, the person will be arrested. Nigeria's constitution should be for everyone, not for certain segments/tribes

Again, we need to restructure the country. Decentralize federal power and take power back to the local community, state will control their resources and run their own police.

What we need in Nigeria is not a National conference, but an international conference.

lonecatt:

What conference?

Why not just implement the recommendations of the conference convened by Jonathan or the recommendations of the ElRufai Restructuring Committee?

There is no time to start any conference afresh.

E go be

Prove to him that the conference must involve cows and watch him give a nod to it...

Instead of wasting money on another conference, why not organize a t section between Reps and Senate then invite selected public to the debate..

Golan007:




What conference?

the one conducted by former democratic president Jonathan.

Oby please leave him o, we Yorubas are gone out of that Lord Lugard's 1914 amalgamation slavery...

YORUBA NATION NOW!!!

Buhari is a stubborn and un democratic and he would never listen, zoogeria is gone already, no sane person would want to be the president of zoogeria.

Only greedy igbo politicians are looking for presidency

I repeat zoogeria is gone, I used to believe in one zoogeria until I repented and I was baptised

You people don't know what you did to yourselves very soon you would use wheel barrow to purchase bread like Zimbabwe

Yoruba nation is a must

Jobless woman looking for another money making venture, like Jona-Daft wasted money on a useless conference previously with nothing to show for it.

Its high time Nigeria Broke up

Convey what? To discuss how to appoint or make you minister! It seems Madam need allowance to further her protest business!

This wide mouthed woman won't stop talking

Lol

The first thing is to organise referendum in all parts of the country.
Do you want to belong to this Monkey Republic? Yes | No.
Anything other than this, is absolute stupidity and waste of time

the truth remains that something strategic has to be done and quickly
