“I submit to you today that because of the multiple issues surrounding our skewed federalism and constitutional flaws, the Nigerian nation is weak. Unless we move to strengthen it through dialogue and equity, we will remain a nation in mere words. The 21-member Presidential Committee on the Review of Outstanding Constitutional Issues (PCROCI) recently set up by President Goodluck Jonathan falls short. It is a backdoor approach to the issue of national conference. In memory of Chief Enahoro we must convoke a national conference. It would provide a platform to address our pressing concerns.”- Bola Tinubu on 25/11/2011 at the Anthony Enahoro Memorial lecture. I tire for some people. True. A few years ago when Mr President set up a constitutional review committee, BAT opposed and objected saying a National Conference had to be set up. Now the same BAT opposes a national conference? La wa O!
