National Chairman of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Emmanuel Ibiok Essien, has urged the Federal Government to address agitations from all sections of the country now to restructure the country.

Maintaining that the country could no longer continue with the kind of federalism it operates, he said Nigeria should be restructured to devolve more powers to the state, adding that there was a lot to gain in staying together if the centre should cede more powers to the states.

Essien explained that unity would be maintained in the country if the states are encouraged to maximise their full potential to encourage healthy competition among them, adding that Nigerians have a lot to benefit from country’s unity in diversity. On corruption, he stressed that graft has drawn the country backward, adding that despite the fact that Nigeria’s democratic system was still at the experimental stage, it was getting worse, because the executive arm of government was wielding too much powers.
