Movement for New Nigeria, MNN, comprising different regional and ethnic national groups in the country, has warned that Nigeria currently runs a fundamentally deceptive constitution which must be urgently reviewed to save the country from imminent collapse.

MNN, made up of Lower Niger Congress, the Federation of Oodua Peoples and the Middle Belt Congress, noted that such an amendment must address the agitations of groups, such as the Islamic fundamentalist sect, Boko Haram; Movement for Emancipation of Niger Delta, MEND; Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB; Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC, among others. MNN noted that the various militia groups were threats to Nigeria’s corporate existence.

MNN noted that the fraudulent nature of the constitution, which was imposed on the nations that make up the Nigerian state by the military, without the people having a say or contributing to the making of the document, was a major problem which, if not addressed urgently through a national discourse involving all the nationalities on the way forward, spells doom for the Nigerian arrangement.
