Nigeria is better as a united country – Ekweremadu

By Omoye Oriaghan

The Deputy President of the Senate, Dr. Ike Ekweremadu has said that Nigeria is better as a united country and not a divided one.

Ekweremadu stated this after delivering a lecture on constitutionalism and the challenges of leadership in Africa in New York.

He said what Nigerians need is a sense of belonging and good governance.

Ekweremadu also stressed the need for the country to be restructured from the current over-concentration of power at the centre.

Ekweremadu stressed that a restructured Nigeria would be in the best interest of everyone as each geo-political zone would maximize its potentialities.
