Olanipekun, Calls For Regional Federalism to Save Nigeria
Former NBA President, Chief Wole Olanipekun, SAN, has renewed calls for regional federalism as a solution to Nigeria’s political and social challenges.
He said devolving powers to the regions would promote proper integration, while the central government retains only core responsibilities.
Speaking recently in Ikere-Ekiti, Olanipekun urged Nigerians to embrace humanity and loyalty, warning against inhumanity, disloyalty, and internal sabotage.
“You cannot plant war against your country and expect peace,” he said.
He stressed that citizens must act to strengthen the nation and stop internal conflicts, noting that external intervention is unnecessary if Nigerians uphold unity and discipline.
The legal luminary called on the government to name culprits and act decisively, adding that love, kindness, and patriotism are key to solving the country’s lingering problems.
