ABSTRACT
Restructuring is a song on the lips of many
Nigerians. It has trended for decades and seems to be an inter-generational
topical issue in Nigeria. The persistent call for restructuring takes numerous
dimensions, but particularly outstanding is in the dimension of politics. It is
no surprise though, because the philosophy behind the existence of every state
and the control of its resources bothers on politics. It is in a bid to fill
this gap that this paper attempts to answer the above questions through an
analytical study of a number of restructuring opinions. The findings of the
study proves that ensuring the peaceful coexistence of Nigerian multiethnic
nationalities as one peaceful entity called Nigeria and effecting of rapid and
competitive development of the different regions of the country among other
factors consists the need for restructuring; while elite interest, fear of
ethnic dominations, political idiosyncrasy among others construe the challenges
facing political restructuring in Nigeria. This paper recommends
re-federalization, value reorientation, institutional re-strengthening, ethnic
representation amongst others as the solution to restructuring issues in
Nigeria.
