Has Nigeria ever been united? how many northerners and westerners have properties in the east and south south? It has been like that even when he OBJ was president. Until people from those two regions started treating people as equal there will be no unity. North and west are more accommodating.

Obasanjo should blame himself for whatever division we have now. If he did not allow corruption to take over the country, there wouldn't have been problem

Ever increasing population with declining industries. A mai ruwa will comfortable have 20 children just for religious and electoral value. Till we adopt the Chinese family policy of not more than 2 children, we might end up eating each other

i blame the idiotic pig's of biafia IPOB terrorists leader madzi Nnamdi cownu and his gullible followers for their hate speech and actions towards other tribes esp Yoruba and Hausa people.
in the short and long run the Igbos will eventually suffer and will be treated as a second citizen in Nigeria.

Nigeria More Divided Now Than The time Of Civil War — Obasanjo

The former President of Nigeria Chief Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday expressed his grief on the present state of Nigeria.

According to him, Nigeria is more divided now than it was during the Civil war.

He said this during the general yearly meeting of the Association of Chief Audit Executives of Banks in Nigeria (ACAEBIN), in Abeokuta.
According to the Former President, Nigeria More Divided Now Than The time Of Civil War:

“When we look at this country today, even during the civil war, we were not as divided as we are today. Today, we are in danger if we don’t take partnership serious. Partnership within our people, within Africa and the rest of the world.”

“As Chief audit, it is defined by virtue of what you are doing as a profession. If the audit is awry, banking business will not be right. What I want to emphasise is that, it is a must as Nigerians and as Africans, that we have certain elements that we have to take very serious which I put as five Ps.

He also lamented the high level of illiteracy in the Northern part of the country:

“The first is politics which is governance. Unless we get governance right, any other thing we are trying to do will not be right. The second is population. Our population at independence, we were estimated to be 45 million, but today we are 200 million. By the year 2050, we will be over 400 million. Normally, population should be an asset but looking at the condition we are in now, when in the North-East of percentage of adult literacy is about 53 percent, you can see that, we have a problem and education is basic in all human development. “How do we think of setting education to be useful? Those people who will make our education over 400 million in some years time are already born, and you cannot unborn them, so the problem is here, what do we do?

“We must provide education for them, housing, healthcare, education for them, and more importantly, employment for them."

He also talked on Employments in Nigeria, urging banks to pay more attention on Agricultural Sector and Business.

“One thing that I believe will help us is to provide employment, and probably part of what will help us is agric business. And you in the baking business must pay attention to how we build the agric sector.

“I am not talking of horti-culture, I am talking of the whole value chain, from land preparation. And if we are able to get that right, maybe we will be able to get the issue of employment for our teeming youths right, we will be able to get even the issue of rural development right, we will be able to get the issue if the gap between the have and have not right.

“The next one is prosperity, I am not being bothered about Nigeria’s poverty or Africa poverty. Nigeria have everything to generate wealth. We have God’s given resources under our soil. We also have human resources. If we bring these together, then, we will definitely get prosperity."

Obasanjo on Security:

“Another one is protection, that is security. People must be protected in all aspect. Protection of lives, protection of property and the people can actually feel that they are protected,” he said.

Ogun State governor, Ibikunle Amosun who was represented by the state Commissioner for Finance, Mr Adewale Oshinowo spoke on Banking in the digital age:

He said that,

“Our motivation, as an administration, towards making lives abundant for our good people is to ensure optimal utilisation of the available resources and block all leakages and wastage of our resources.”

“As the operating environment changes, the knowledge and skill required to effectively perform audit assignments have become more sophisticated.”

True talk..However, the problem i have with all our past leaders is that when they were in position to make the necessary change that is required to make the country better but refuse to do it and later come back, complaining about the same country they failed to fix really beat my imagination...

Is it that Aso Rock has a way of blanking out their brains and sense of duty to the citizens of Nigeria; Making them clueless in solving our basic problem such as power ,Healthcare and education system and even restructuring the country so that Nigeria can be managed efficiently by their various state or regions..but they did not. Obasanjo had opportunity to restructure this country but he used his selfish 3rd term agenda to Arrow the whole process... Now he is complaining that Nigeria is more divided than ever..Of cos we are..

Nigerians have always aligned themselves along their various ethnicity/religious affinity before recognizing the fact that they are Nigerians...they only see someone from another tribes as one only when they are outside the country.Restructuring this country is the only way out and nothings else...Baba Obasanjo should stop talking about the issues we have because he is part of the reason Nigeria has remained like this..since he has ruled on two various occasions.

I think seun or whatever is his name should change the name of this forum from nairaland to tribal-land...
the tribalists we have here are majorly from the ancient roof gangs, I mean the sons of the fallen angel
