Simon UteborThe Governor of Bayelsa State, Seriake Dickson, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to convoke a meeting of stakeholders to discuss issues bordering on restructuring and true federalism. In a statement by his Special Adviser on Public Affairs, Daniel Alabrah, Dickson said the country’s unity was negotiable. The statement quoted the governor as saying the country’s unity could not be sustained by constitutional provisions or by mere force. Restructuring simply means a call for constitutional reforms to guarantee a more stable country. He added, “I don’t want to be a citizen of one tiny oil-rich country that one big African country can easily overrun.’’Copyright PUNCH.
