He said, “If we say the Igbos should go and become a region, what will be the fate of Delta State? Even Lagos people will not agree to join a regional government. Some people are just talking about the regional system; it is because of the corruption and tribal sentiments in the country. You hear ‘we want to go, we want to go’ because one tribe dominates others.

He also noted that restructuring can only exist if different tribes can dialogue and cooperate together. He pointed out greed to be the problem of politicians, adding that the poor masses have no to be controlled.
