President Goodluck Jonathan is expected to inaugurate the confab at 4 pm.
492 delegates comprising various the ethnic nationalities, professional groups, political and civil society groups are expected to participate.

The delegates have started arriving at Abuja for the conference already on Sunday.

The confab that will last for three months is meant to provide platform for Nigerians to discuss issues of their common concern.
Earlier, however, the FG announced that the issues of the indivisibility and indissolubility of Nigeria were a no-go area.
The conference will also advise the government on the legal framework, procedures and options for integrating the decisions and outcomes of the national conference into the constitution and laws of Nigeria.
The conference will be chaired by retired Justice Idris Kutigi.
What are your expectations?
