Former Presidential candidate and restructuring exponent, Rev. Chris Okotie, says the fierce contests and contentions between politicians before, during, and after the 2023 general election justified his call for a new constitution in the country.
Okotie, who has been canvassing for what he called TOKO (The Okotie Option) as a template that could bring about the Nigerian reformation, noted that the reformation is anchored on four major components – Reconciliation, Reconstruction, Solidarity, and a new foundation for development.
The cleric, in a statement issued on Sunday, April 16, by his media adviser, Ladi Ayodeji, said: “It is time for Reconciliation; it is time for Reconstruction; it is time to join hands in solidarity; it is time to lay the foundation for posterity; it is time for TOKO. The Reformation of Nigeria is now!”

Okotie stressed that the ad hoc amendments of the constitution as being proposed by some people would not lead to any serious reformation because the current constitution upon which the general election was held has only produced greater division in the polity as being experienced.
He lamented that his warning that the country should be restructured before the election was to avoid post-election crisis and create the right atmosphere for the peaceful development of Nigeria.
Noting that the TOKO campaign would continue, Okotie urged Nigerians to take part in the National Dialogue he is promoting to engender equity, peace, and prosperity of Nigeria, urging political gladiators to sheath their sword and come to the roundtable to fashion out how to restructure the country.
“At the end of this campaign, we shall compile the various submissions and send a memorandum to the President, the National Assembly, and other key stakeholders,” he added.
