Foundation Proposes ‘United States of Nigeria’ Model for National Restructuring

The Lovers of Hope, Helping and Care Foundation is calling for a nationwide restructuring of Nigeria into an indivisible federation of empowered states. It proposes the name “United States of Nigeria” and rejects regional separation, secession and fragmentation. The foundation says states should have greater authority over local governance, resource management and internal security, while remaining fully accountable to the Federal Government. It also argues that governors who receive security funds should be held responsible for addressing insecurity within their states. Its proposals include stronger anti-corruption laws, coordinated operations involving security agencies and forest guards, and prosecution of bandits, terrorists and kidnappers in line with due process and human rights standards. The foundation urges dialogue among ethnic, regional and community groups, arguing that a nationally agreed restructuring framework could promote equity, stability and long-term unity.

Exactly, the proposal needs clear boundaries on state authority before anyone can properly assess the restructuring idea.

The proposal tries to frame restructuring as unity through stronger states, rather than another argument for separation or fragmentation.

A new name may sound appealing, but the important issue is whether restructuring can be clearly defined and accepted nationwide.

The foundation should publish a simple outline of state powers, federal responsibilities, and how citizens can contribute to the discussion.
