De Renaissance Patriots Foundation says the indigenes of Lagos state are not interested in being part of the western region if Nigeria returns to a regional system of government.
On Saturday, the group released a statement to react to the viral draft bill proposing a return to regional government. The group said the draft bill is an attempt to “subsume” the aspirations of the people of Lagos into a larger group. “We recall that in our history of over 100 years, Lagos indigenes in their various forms, towns and villages have never made progress and development as part of any region not to talk of the western region. The brief balkanization of our state to be part of the Western Region was an aberration.“Nothing should be assumed especially from the contents of this proposed bill, especially if it has the inclusion of Lagos state as part of any region.
