National government must care for the interest of all

Resource distribution in this country is at the absolute discretion of who runs the National Government. Governors and Parliament, who should have a say, play a secondary role from the look of the ongoing political realignments. Consequently, it seems, whoever wants development in their area should negotiate with prospective State House occupants. 

This raises several questions. Is it constitutionally right that every tribe or region should stand up to fight for its interests at the national level? Or perhaps this is a moral question. So, on what moral basis does a group of honourable members stand in public to demand a share of government post 2022 General Election in the would-be winner regime?
