What is your view about the proposed council of traditional rulers in the country as initiated by the president?


Well, my views are very clear and that I am in support of the proposed initiatives of Mr. President. The traditional institution has been an integral part of the state and the Nigerian society. I personally see no reason why such an integral part of a society will not have proper regard in the nation’s constitution. As at now, I am certain that we have passed the stage in which we have enumerated why the traditional institution has to be recognized constitutionally. The society knows and appreciates the position of the traditional institution, so there is no point in saying why the institution has to be accorded a constitutional recognition. It is a well-known fact that the institution enjoys the highest recognition from the society more than any other and deserves a constitutional recognition.
