This was part of submissions at a recent forum where it was also argued that building a new foundation based on trust, honesty and transparency should, therefore, be the most urgent national priority.

This was the position of the Initiative for Good and Informed Citizenship, conveners of Rescue Nigeria, in a statement.

Prior to this event, I and the other five leaders of Rescue Nigeria, a nascent political movement seeking to enroll no fewer than 10 million Nigerians who would pledge to be model citizens and start acting together for the common good, had been inviting citizens to a hybrid event we had tagged ‘Changemakers MeetUp’.

While taking a position that Nigerians will do better under a single restructured country, the group also remarked that the problem of social injustice is fueling calls for separation.
