Restructuring alone can’t solve Nigeria’s problems – Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan on has asked Nigerians to exploit other opportunities as restructuring alone cannot solve Nigeria’s problem.

Jonathan while speaking at the 18th Daily Trust Dialogue with the theme: ‘Restructuring in Nigeria: Why? How? When?’, said exploiting other opportunities on dialogue will make the nation better.

According to him: “My conviction is that discussion on restructuring will not help except we restructure our minds because some of the challenging issues at the national level still exist at the state and local levels.

“For instance, in some states, it is not easy for some persons to win an election because of the area they come from. The language they speak or their religious belief.

“Take a look at how local government elections are conducted at the state level. Why is it very difficult for an opposition party to win a chairmanship or councillorship seat in a state, despite the fact that the same party probably secured seats in the state Assembly and National Assembly elections, organised by a federal election management body?
