President Muhammadu Buhari’s Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, said this in reaction to calls for restructuring by some eminent leaders of the country at an event in Abuja.
Prominent Nigerians, including the immediate past President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief John Nwodo; a chieftain of Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo and the Chairman of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Chief Audu Ogbeh, said there was an urgent need to restructure Nigeria for it to attain its full potential.
But reacting to the calls, Shehu simply advised proponents of restructuring to approach the legislature.
However; a former National Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Professor Attahiru Jega, after explaining factors responsible for the growing agitation for restructuring, said the Presidency and indeed the Federal government is wrong to have referred Nigerians to the National Assembly.
