The Eastern Consultative Assembly (ECA) has described the All Progressives Congress (APC) committee on restructuring report as a plot from the pit of hell to deceive Nigerians.
The ECA also said that President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has one agenda, which it claimed is to Islamize Nigeria using the Fulani herdsmen.
ECA said the move is only a pretext design for 2019 elections, while faulting comments by the Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, that President Buhari will implement the report on restructuring if re-elected.
The ECA said this in a statement by its Deputy Leader, Maria Okwor and Secretary, Evang. Elliot Ugochukwu-Uko. It also accused Buhari of attempting to impose the Islamic agenda on Nigerians by appointing his kinsmen into strategic positions.
The statement reads: “APC report on restructuring is a red herring, a smoke screen and an ungodly deception designed solely to buy time, to deceive and to mislead the masses of the country into voting in, this tasteless, ruthless and unworthy cabal into the office for a second term.
“The deliberate effort to pretend that they are willing to restructure, designed only for the elections a year away is from the pit of hell. The designers of this evil strategy know that they have no intention to yield to the sensible clamour to restructure Nigeria.
“They know, they made four attempts to grab power for only one purpose: to impose their agenda on 180 million Nigerians. That agenda is dutiful being driven by their militia wing: the Fulani herdsmen.
“That agenda is also glaring enough for the blind to see the nauseating nepotism in the lopsided appointments that has divided the country.
“Turning around to attempt to appeal to the sensibilities of Nigerians who yearn for a genuine restructuring of the polity by pretending they now believe in the same restructuring they claim not to understand what it means, is a clear sign that this ruthless cabal that has destroyed Nigeria in three years, has probably become jittery, after realizing that Nigerians have rejected them.
“They, therefore, foolishly hope to deceive Nigerians, by pretending they have become born again apostles of restructuring. A ploy they used successfully just before the last elections…’
“Whereas returning Nigerian to true fiscal federalism, regional autonomy and resource control, consensually affirmed through a referendum and a new constitution, remains the only way to salvage Nigeria, infantile ploys by vicious elements to continue to hold us all hostage through guile, albeit, making public a deceptive report on restructuring, which they have no intention whatsoever to implement, just so they could fool the people yet again shows how desperate the oppressive cabal destroying Nigeria today, has suddenly become.”
