Mr Iwuanyanwu, who said Ohanaeze was not happy with the 1999 Constitution as amended, called for the restructuring of Nigeria where power would devolve from federal government to state governments. He threatened to take legal action against the federal government if it failed to give the region an additional state equivalent to other zones in the country, saying “We are assembling Igbo lawyers to pursue it”.The Igbo leader also kicked against merging of Project Development Institute with another science Institute, stressing that the institute was borne out of the experience of the Nigeria Civil War.
