Recall that Legit.ng previously reported that former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, said that he would restructure the country in six months if voted as president in 2019.
Atiku made this promise at Chatham House, UK, during a question and answer session.
He said: “It is doable. In fact, what I’ve told many Nigerians at home is that if you give me six months, I know I will be able to achieve a fast level of restructuring. It’s very easy to deal with it because there is no state that you will call and say ‘I want to give you this responsibility together with the resources’, and will say ‘no’.”
