I think the SE and SW can live in harmony, irrespective of any differences they may harbor among themselves. A classic example is my parents who have been happily married for about 40years and going.

I think the south should seperate from the north, and lets see who developes faster. one big factor to consider is that the north is more homogenous( muslims/hausa/fulani) while the south is totally not, but its more progressive.

it's not about inter-marriage, it is about development and a system that is not working for the common good of all.

Yes. I understand both the aspects of SW and Southern. Even when I was in Uni, the Southerners (Igbo, Yoruba, Bini, Ibibio, Efik etc) kept to themselves and the Northerners (Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri) did same.
My point was just to illustrate the relations between the two dominant ethnic groups in the South. Also, its far more easier and possible though tricky, to have a "workable" south than you'd think possible. I know the mindset of every popular ethnic group within Nigeria so, my views are from such mindsets.

careful with those trickery cos they can backfire. We've been called traitors in the past and now why do you think such union will work?

@whoever said that agriculture can exceed oil earnings, lmao.

@whoever pointed out that the same onions imported from the North can be imported elsewhere, well done. Nobody will starve if the country splits. You just buy onions/tomatoes from Arewa Republic. And if they refuse to sell, buy from Benin Republic or Cameroon  grin

@coldhearts- Yeah it's about development and a system that works within the entity called Nigeria. So, what do you suggest? Cos all i 'm a saying is, that the SW and SE are compactible with each other, no matter their differences, both are progressive in nature, educated, open to change and secular, but it's not the case with the people up north.

The challenge is not whether people will starve if the country splits, it is whether the split can happen peacefully. I'm of the opinion that we cannot archieve this split peacefully. We may have to agree to disagree on this particular issue.

@iwonbaoko- If the south should split from the north, and be on it's own, i don't forsee any thing like we are going through now. It will be the best brain that will be chosen to lead the country. So, your insinuation of one side stepping down for the other is ethnocentric idealogy which will not be tolarated in our New Nigeria.

Why must there be rotational presidency? Does that guarantee development or good leadership? the north is the least developed part of the country, yet the northerners held on to power for 38 of Nigeria's 50 years. Anybody with the right qualities should lead. Rotation my a.s.s.
Re: Why Can't Igbos Withdraw From The Enemy Territory? by Obiagu1(m): 11:02pm On Apr 21, 2011
There's no way to tell a citizen of a country not to live in any part of the country. When such situation arise, then the "country" does not exist anymore and the truth should be told. Divide!

Northerners cannot come down South and utilize any opportunity they find down South whereas Southerners will no longer be comfortable to go up North to do the same.

Our politicians are the problem, let them call a spade a spade. Enough of this pretense!
Give a condition, if such thing ever happens again, the country should be divided or deploy soldiers in those trouble spots and authorize them to shot at sight anyone involved in such killing rampage without getting prior order from anyone. They are all murderers and I can tell you 4 generations of murderers currently live in the North without being made to face the law.

i'm back now
I was a bit shocked but knowing nigeria, i realized it's not a big deal that he did that plus who knows, he might not have done it on purpose. I was harsh at first but i realized it's a public forum and all inputs are welcomed, hence i toned my reply down. NL isn't worth the creation of more than one ID and stick by it.
Anyway to answer you, the fact that ethnicity plays a strong role in our society, it will not be an easy union. It will have developments but it will also have mistrust btw SE, SW- an extra headache.
Re: Why Can't Igbos Withdraw From The Enemy Territory? by ektbear: 11:21pm On Apr 21, 2011
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Southern Nigeria may further divide. But it seems to me that that is Step Z. Step A seems to be deciding whether you want to continue living in the same country as the core North. Most of ya'll seem to agree that separation would be good.
Re: Why Can't Igbos Withdraw From The Enemy Territory? by asdan(m): 11:26pm On Apr 21, 2011
Those calling for the splitting on Nigeria are just misguided,brainwashed and unpatriotic Nigerians who don't appreciate our coexistence.The south can not do without the North likewise the North.I was born in the South and i have seen many conflicts amongst the southerners they do kill too,is not a Northern thing.Until the religious bigot are stoped from preaching hatred in the Mosque and the churches there is no way we can have a lasting peace in Nigeria .
