In a visionary declaration that has ignited conversations nationwide and across the diaspora, renowned philanthropist and patriotic Nigerian citizen, Mr. Bayo, has proposed a transformative roadmap for Nigeria’s future—one rooted in decentralization, data integrity, and democratic empowerment.
Currently based in the diaspora, Mr. Bayo is more than just a voice for reform—he is a man of action. Over the years, he has empowered countless Nigerian youths, students, and vulnerable citizens through direct cash support, ICT tools, and tech equipment, driven by an unshakable belief in the power of innovation and education. “Nigeria’s greatest asset is its people,” he often says, “and when you give them tools, they create miracles.”
At the heart of his proposal is a call to restructure Nigeria into a Regional System of Government, granting each region full control over its resources and development priorities. Under this system, regions would contribute a fair share to the federal purse but steer their own destinies.
He also stressed the need for a mandatory national and state-level census, with a comprehensive citizen database that ensures no Nigerian is invisible. “We must know who we are before we can decide where we’re going,” he said.
In a bold security reform, Mr. Bayo advocated for state policing, enabling states to form and control their own police forces. “Let each state defend its people the way it knows best,” he stated, pushing back against the current centralized model.
One of his most groundbreaking proposals was the removal of presidential powers in appointing the INEC and EFCC chairmen. Instead, he called for direct regional elections for these critical positions—without any political party interference. “Neutrality and competence must guide these institutions—not loyalty to any president,” he emphasized.
His patriotic drive comes from a deep desire to see Nigeria rise. “I want a Nigeria where everyone—home or abroad—can be proud to say, ‘Yes, I’m Nigerian.’ Not just in football, but in governance, in development, in dignity.”
Social media platforms exploded with reactions to his announcement, with many tagging it under the now-trending phrase: “Imagination wan wound me”, expressing both awe and laughter at the scale—and sincerity—of his dream.
While some critics dismiss the vision as “idealistic,” growing numbers of Nigerians, especially the youth, are calling it the fresh perspective the nation needs.
With his heart in Nigeria and his hands reaching across the globe, Mr. Bayo’s dream is simple: a Nigeria that works—for every Nigerian.
