At the All Progressives Congress' South-West Zonal public hearing on true federalism in Ibadan, some South-West governors and the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, backed the call for restructuring of Nigeria. Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, argued that the ongoing call for restructuring indicates a need to review the current governance system, which gives more powers to the central government. He suggested that local governments should be subjected to the state, with a review of the revenue allocation formula in favor of states. Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, emphasized the importance of consenting parties in deciding how they wish to live together or be governed. Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, supported restructuring, aligning with the Yoruba Summit's call for a return to regional systems. Alaafin of Oyo argued that Nigeria must be restructured to avoid a break-up like the one experienced in the old Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
