That was 1967 - 69 Nigeria when the West thought on the advice of Britain that the ignorance and illiteracy of the North could exploited to enjoy the oil in the gulf of Guinea. Well times have changed.

The same West would not want to see Islamic terrorist wannabe control another important source of oil to the World.

Trust me their is no Northern Military might in Nigeria. Russia and UK simply gave support to where their interest lies and that was what won that war. Times have changed and Foreign Policy towards Nigeria is fast changing.

beystwin:

Regional autonomy is the anwser.

Pennywise:

It is good to write and feel good abt these things.

FYI, the Nig army has two lingua franca-english and hausa.

The coup years of 1983-1998 witnessed a lot of transformation the NA where southerners were systematically ostracized. Our pple in the military are mere observers. The core Nigerian Military is in the hands of the hausa/fulanis. It will be suicidal to ignore this fact in any tactical-strategic calculation by the south

Amhatu:


Better Idea would be to introduce 3 Presidents one for each region (North,South South,South West) and One Strong Prime minister.

3 Presidents given 10 year terms each and able to be reelected once.

The Prime Minister can be reelected every 10 years with unlimited terms in accordance to fair elections with others contending for the Prime Minister Spot.

My Opinion

beystwin:

Good idea, but i was thinking of say the current geopolitical zone remain as it is; govern by their own first ministers. for unity and continuity one president with ceremonial powers only,

Amhatu:

Ceremonial powers is not enough. Nigeria is a Very Big country. Lets also remember Nigeria is a Federation. My current Proposal would bring it more
so into the governs of a Federation with regions having their say while the Prime Minister speaks for all and delegates between the 3 Regional Presidents.

My opinion

18 platoon:

@oyb mend, obj just did that as a smokescreen, if obj really purged the army of northern officers where did all the COAS and all the GOCs came from, and now come and see rapid proms. abeg stop saying obj is anti north cos anything you obj did it was written on a paper for him to act beleive it or not.

OYB_MEND:

I don't know who your people are. OBJ systematically balanced the Nigerian Army in his 8years as President. The days when the Nigerian Army was an extension of Sokoto caliphate are gone.

OYB_MEND:

Times have also changed because we in the South South have come to realise that the Igbos of the South East was never our problem.

Gaddafi is making more sense. Gaddafi is right. And Jonathan has to listen to wisdom.

All of africa country would support it. And the islamic countries would support. Give us the required vote in the united nation.

Look the far north is already collecting money from oil. I dont see any reason , why we cant continue to give them. if they form thier country for peace. This thing can be worked out. As long as the africa union get involve and we sign, why not for the sake of peace. Oil is a gift of God.

i really dont understand y some people are against the division of nigeria.this is a country that in the first place never agreed to be one.we dont have the same culture,language,religion etc.
there are many ethnic groups but one have always taken the governance of the country as their birthright,even though they are the least educated. they see themselves as first class citizens while others are 2nd n 3rd class citizens.
nigeria is multi-religious but today is a member of OIC.we are not an arabic country,but has an arabic insciption on our naira.all thanks to a section that believe they are superior to others and takes decisions binding on all.
i wonder y we cannot see the hand writing on the wall.humans(xtians) and vampires(moslems) dont live together.the nigerian moslems have become terrors to the rest of nigerians.peace is not in their evil book n violence is in their blood so y remain one with them.the only option here is division,period!

I think the solution to all these problems lies with education. How many educated northerners down south has time for maiming and killing people (pls don't use mutallab as an example)? I believe once they are educated, this country will be better. We could achieve more when we are together than when we are seperated.

And you think the north will trust you to keep to the agreement?  On what basis?

006:

Seun and fellow Yoruba cowards will never support splitting Nigeria into North and South, but I will sincerely ask you to let the Igbos go, or do you Nigerians want to drink all our blood?

Igbos want to leave!
Others can stay behind but let Igbos leave and stop preaching this One Nigeria bullshit.

I think for once, Gaddafi is spot on
