The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), have said that the only condition for restructuring the country is if it would promote unity and peaceful cohabitation among Nigerians.
According to them, in a statement signed by their National Publicity Secretary, Mohammed Biu, restructuring means many things to several people and group –resource control, owner, true federalism, regional, among others.
They noted that these definitions are bound by ethnic and geographical leanings, adding that they however stand for the one that would put the nation on the path of stability.
“ACF notes with regret that those clamouring or demanding for the so-called restructuring are yet to define what they actually mean by the concept and its application in our present democratic setting,” the statement read in part.
“In most cases, the meaning depends on which section of the country or where the person advocating it comes from.
“It is, therefore, the considered view of the ACF that any acceptable restructuring meant to improve the unity, stability, harmony and peaceful coexistence of the country must be based on just, fair and equitable principles to all Nigerians that come with clarity of definition.”
