In a recent podcast addressed directly to Tinubu, Former Governor of Cross-River State, Donald Duke raised serious questions about several failed policies of Tinubu’s Presidency, plunging Nigeria into gross insecurity and Economic Free-Fall that has inflicted mass poverty and hunger on the populace, resulting in protests and widespread disenchantment. He advised Tinubu to rethink the failing Policies and embark on Systemic Reforms to reset the Policy Environment.

Bold and Brilliant as the Postulations may sound, every single recommendation by Donald Duke in this clip requires a Constitutional Reconstruction to execute.
Is it not curious that Donald Duke wants these Fundamental Changes which spread from Security to Economy to Refineries, to Judiciary, to Education, Health Care and the Rule of Law BUT he has not been identified in the camp of those who are working for the Comprehensive Constitutional Reconstruction of Nigeria?
Before now, one would have just categorised the Postulations of Donald Duke as a product of IGNORANCE on the subject but with the massive enlightenment by NINAS across the last 25 years, there is basis to look in the direction of DISHONESTY for why a clear-minded and widely exposed political actor like Donald Duke will prefer to leave the tap on and recommend mopping in place of turning off the tap as the Unitary Constitution of Nigeria is directly responsible for every single anomaly lamented by Donald Duke in this otherwise brilliant and bold intervention.
A simple Cause-Effect Analysis of why things are the way they are in Nigeria will bring us squarely to the question of the Unworkable Unitary Constitution of Nigeria as established in the video clips below, otherwise tell me how we came about a character like Tinubu becoming President, or how Nigeria that Produces and Sells over 2 million Barrels of Crude Oil a Day, became an importer of Petroleum Products now struggling with Subsidies and a Free-falling Currency and Economy?.
As the Governor who presided over the great economic vision represented by the Tinapa Project, which was conceived to put Cross-River State on a sound Economic Footing but which was frustrated by Unitary Nigeria into a pile of debilitating debt for Cross-River State, should Donald Duke not be one of those leading the charge for the Wholesale Decommissioning of the Unworkable Unitary Constitution of Nigeria-1999?

Recent postulations from knowledgeable quarters on the same subject: Nigeria In Free-Fall: NINAS Constn Reset Process Emerges as Redemption Pathway.
Still on the Cause-Effect Analysis imperative for a Failing Nigeria, we recall the case of Peter Obi who in 2021 declared that Nigeria was like a vehicle with a knocked engine and therefore, that the search should be for a replacement-engine or a new vehicle and not for a new driver, BUT who turned around in 2022, at the start of the 2023 Presidential Election Campaigns, to Declare that the Constitution was not the problem with Nigeria and that Leadership was the Problem, for which reason he offered himself as that Leader that would fix Nigeria if he became Nigeria’s President.
In avoiding the obvious Constitutional source of Nigeria’s Multidimensional Failures and Dysfunctions, could Donald Duke be heading out on that same trajectory of plotting to offer himself at a future Election, probably 2027, as that Transformative Leader that will fix Nigeria under a Unitary Constitution that guarantees the Failures and Dysfunctions he currently laments?
As a part of its No-Further-National-Elections-Under-1999-Constitution push towards immediate Transitioning, NINAS will be on the watch-out for all Politicians who on the one hand, complain bitterly about the disasters of governance in Nigeria, but on the other hand, subscribe to further rounds of National Elections under the Death-Dispensing 1999 Constitution, offering themselves as Candidates in such Elections when the solution to the Nigerian situation is to shut down the Voyage to further National Elections and the immediate initiation of a Transitioning Process for Constitutional Reconstruction as South Africa did in 1990 to ease itself out of the Apartheid Constitutional bind after 80 years.
That paradigm of Transitioning-For-Union-Reconstruction is precisely what Nigeria must do now to save both itself and its traumatised constituent Peoples from the looming anarchy arising from the collapse of the untenable Unitary Constitution upon which the Unitary Nigeria of now is erected and by which the Nigerian Union is currently defined.
The NINAS 5-Point Transitioning Proposition offers a meticulously crafted Framework and Process, providing Nigeria with the most feasible, systematic, and immediate approach to undertake the indispensable Reconstruction of its Union. This initiative is imperative to mitigate the looming risk of a disorderly dissolution and potential violent disintegration, ensuring a peaceful and stable Transition.
May I, on behalf of NINAS, warn that under the Death-Dispensing Imposed, Fraudulent Unitary Constitution of Nigeria (1999), whilst Nigerians are dying of hunger inflicted on them by reckless Government Policies and perishing from gross insecurity being orchestrated from well-known quarters, NIGERIA itself is heading speedily and almost unstoppably to a catastrophic collapse even as unconscionable Political Merchants from all parts of Nigeria are on an undisguised State-Capture Mission across Party Lines.
May I therefore posit unequivocally on behalf of NINAS, that in the face of the long-running Fulani Conquest Onslaught and the ongoing State-Capture Gambit of Maniacal Political Merchants, both enabled by the atrocious Unitary Constitution of Nigeria, the NINAS 5-Point Union Transitioning Proposition offers the most immediate and most viable Containment and Remediation to the Twin-Evils of Fulani Conquest Agenda (which is behind Nigeria’s INSECURITY); the State-Capture Gambit of Tinubu and his co-travellers, (which is principally responsible for Nigeria’s ECONOMIC FREE-FALL) and Nigeria’s Unworkable Unitary Constitution-1999, (which POWERS the Twin-Evils mentioned above).
