 Senator Teslim Folari, lawmaker representing Oyo Central Senatorial District, has condemned the high rate of poverty and unemployment among Nigerians. He also blamed the figures to the insistent security challenges plagued in the country. Other lawmakers also spoke on the challenge of governance as they called for a change. Human capacity building can only be achieved through ethical codes, program management of resources and effective administration. These are all elements of governance. The United Nations Development Programme stated that the concept of human development is widely used for rapid and understood different ways around the world. There's a link between poverty and insecurity, obviously. And so, it's okay saying you want to increase the number of army, the number of policemen, put iron gates into your house, buy the most fearful dogs in the world to guide your house. But if you don't address the issue of poverty, the problem would continue, would persist, and that's the point we're making. It has become an octopus that is practically difficult to, because of the way we play politics in Nigeria presently, but fundamentally, there are some things that we must address constitutionally. When we do it, and if we put it then in place, definitely you have a better condition for people because by the time you underplay the danger of ethnicity in the constitution. We say we're running federalism, but in reality it's kind of a reunitary system of government where power rests too much in the centre. But if we want to practice true federalism, if we know we're not practicing federalism, let's know we're not practicing federalism, but if we want to practice true federalism, we got to understand that the powers reside with the states. And power residing with the states that we won't even have this debate in the first place.
