A cross-section of speakers at the Political Education Forum on Poverty, Restructuring, and the National Questions in Nigeria decried the state of the nation.

Correspondent Kunle Ojo reports that the interim chairman of the Organisation in Oyo State, Prof. Omotayo Olorode, and Comrade Jaye Gaskia maintained that the administration of President Mohammadu Buhari is not ready to heed the call for restructuring adding that the country has now been more polarized now more than ever before.
