Restructuring won’t solve Nigeria’s problems – Sam Adeyemi

Sam Adeyemi says Nigeria’s problems will not be solved by restructuring but by a power shift from leaders to citizens. He delivered this message in a series of tweet:

2.The first restructuring we need, and this is true for much of Africa, is for power to shift from political leaders to the citizens, so leaders become accountable, citizens have esteem and are empowered to prosper, and occupying public office is for service, not money-making.

4. Citizens and elite that have conscience must push for this now. Perhaps, then, new structures of government can serve us well. We need to show that the African can rise above base instincts to think, organise himself and build prosperous economies.
