BIAFRA A presidential system of government compliments a democratic regime of government so also, a federated country compliments decentralisation of power and economy. United state, for example, has fifty states. The system is managed in a way where the states have autonomy from the federal government. And it upholds true federalism. Be for further analysis, let's understand the keywords.
Federalism is a system of government in which governmental powers that exist in a country are shared between central government and component region (States). Decentralisation —the transfer of authority and responsibility for public functions from the central government to subordinate or quasi-independent government organisations and the private sector.
Nigeria, recently engaged in the war against corruption and recovery of looted funds. Looking into the corruption practice in Nigeria, I think it based and stabilised right from the integration of so called country. A state that runs federalism must consider the distribution of power and resource control to its states. Every state supposes to manage its monitor and return servicing percentage of revenue to the central government to maintain and manage its affairs. The question is, Why has Nigeria deviated from what it ought to practice by the indication of state to another? The answer is easy and confident.
The reason Nigeria is not practising true federalism is that she wants to deprive people their natural rights. The northern region political cabals (in persons of Yakubu Gowon, Abdul Salam, etc. and Western region counterpart) knew that the have nothing to live with if such system is indeed enforced, they will have a lot to loose; they, therefore, deviated from the truth and to their selfish interest. That is known as corruption and is necessary and fundamental.
Today, the people they deprived their rights have reawakened to take back what belongs to them in ground style and the Northerners know it, and they has nothing to do about it or to stop them. This time around, they do not need any part of the revenue to share with anybody, what they need is their nation. The early the Hausa/Fulanis and Yorubas realise that the first they save themselves from the looming war. All we need is Biafra. Is high time we stop you from subjugation, oppression, massacre, killings, pogroms, marginalisation, suppression, greediness, oil block allocation and corruption. Biafrans are peace loving people. We have tried to accommodate your parasites for over 100 years. Release Kanu and IPOB members in your custody now or ever regret knowing Biafrans.
