Only those with ulterior motives insist on keeping Nigeria one because the basis for such union has been a ruse based in the oil fields of the Southeastern Ibo region of Nigeria—henceforth Biafra—and in the interest of the British. Nigeria exists at the peril of Biafra. For one hundred years, the Biafrans have been the victims of this wicked edifice orchestrated by the British for naked plunder.
Frederick Luggard, the soldier of fortune who forged Nigeria by subterfuge was fully conscious of his fraud especially against the Biafrans when he said that the constituent nations of Nigeria “are like oil and water that can never mix.”
The first Prime Minister of Nigeria, echoed the thinking of every sensible victim of one Nigeria since its inception when he said that: “Since 1914, the British Government has been trying to make Nigeria into one country, but the Nigerian people themselves are historically different in their backgrounds, in their religious beliefs and customs and do not show themselves any signs of willingness to unite … Nigerian unity is only a British invention” – Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa.

Obafemi Awolowo, the foremost leader of the Yoruba in the Southwest infamously described Nigeria, not as a nation, but a mere “geographical expression.”

Now watch the most respected leader of Northern Nigeria, the Sarduana of Sokoto, Ahmadou Bello, in this YouTube video elevating his hatred of the Ibos (Biafrans) to a standing policy of the North; a tradition which they, in collusion with the Southwest Yoruba have continued to date.

Apparently, the Hausa-Fulani with their Yoruba collaborators want Biafra for her oil, but are morbidly terrified that a free Biafra may accomplish more; pursue her God given destiny; and perhaps jettison the colonial apparatus of death, plunder and distortion. The reason that these vagabonds are not pursuing their own natural path is beyond contrived. They use the revenue generated from the oil fields of Biafra to curry favors around the world; to consolidate their tyrannical powers; and seek to repress and destroy the Biafrans.

Only Biafrans ironically have honestly demonstrated the spirit of oneness and nation building by leading the nationalist movement for self-governance; giving Nigeria a second chance after a genocidal war of extermination; living, building, establishing businesses, and developing the other sections of the country in good faith; whereas the Hausa-Fulani and Yoruba contemptuously hardly ever build anything in Biafraland; instead they target the Biafrans investments in their respective domains for destruction and looting at the slightest provocation—imagined or real.
