In a bold move, President Bola Tinubu has submitted an executive bill to the National Assembly, marking a significant step towards Nigeria’s return to a regional system of government. This development has been hailed as a victory for regional autonomy advocates, addressing long-standing national problems and granting more autonomy to regions like the South South, Biafra, Oduduwa, and others.
The proposed bill promises to bring about greater autonomy, increased representation, and decentralization of power. Regions will have more control over their affairs, and regional voices will be heard more clearly. Power will shift from the central government to regional authorities, promoting national unity and resolving regional tensions.
Many Nigerians have praised President Tinubu’s leadership, commending his courage in tackling contentious issues. “What past administrations failed to do or were afraid to do, Tinubu is doing,” said a supporter. With President Tinubu’s determination, Nigeria may finally resolve regional tensions and embark on a new era of regional governance.
However, it’s worth noting that there have been conflicting reports about the bill’s submission. While some sources confirm that President Tinubu has submitted the bill, others claim that the bill is yet to be received by the President. Nonetheless, the proposed bill has generated significant interest and debate among Nigerians, with many eagerly awaiting its passage into law.
