(Voice of Paul) – Between the 16th and 19th centuries when Europeans and specifically the British go around the world forcefully grabbing lands from indigenous people in North America, Australia, and Africa, deliberately spreading diseases among people who were peacefully co-existing with nature, stealing artifacts, and many cultural heritage of African people, making sure that the memory of their powerful ancestors are wiped off, changing their languages, torturing people to death if they don’t accept their religion, killing people and disfiguring them physically; one action I believe the Belgian King Leopold II loved very much as he cut a lot of Congolese’ hands and legs, these invaders made sure that they set up a program that will continuously deliver the atrocities that they desired even in their absence.
Some of the notably evil things the invaders did was forcing people to speak their English language, joining people of different cultural and traditional identities together, and rebranding other people’s tradition and culture as devilish, evil, and occultic while whitewashing the whole story of their religion.

Nigeria today is a perfect example of a fully-functioning post-colonial cancer. How in the world is it possible that Northern and Southern parts of Nigeria are considered as one? How do we have groups of distinctively different people forced to live together? How come the European Union, an economic bloc of 27 countries with 440 million people has 27 official languages and Nigeria, a singular country with more than 219 million people speak one foreign official language which is foreign? Creating Nigeria from the fabrics of ethnicity and religion is the greatest invention of the invaders. The Europeans knew pretty well that we will never agree with one another as the pull and push forces would naturally come into force. This is why we struggle to get things done. We speak different languages, different beliefs, different traditions, and different cultures, we do not have sovereignty and we are forced to live with one another, only for the economic gain of the West.

Public opinions flying left and right about Nigeria’s Presidential election holding this Saturday is nothing but heartbreaking. It is clear that among the candidates that there is one person who is passionate about transforming the country. In my adulthood, the only person who shares a similar passion for transforming Nigeria is Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo but unfortunately, he was outnumbered. But what we have seen is how some Nigerians could not see beyond the ethnical and religious differences. But how did we get here? The ethnoreligious differences in Nigeria is one of the many skillfully-engineered division created among Nigerians and many Africans that is still delivering their desired evil results. It is high time we stopped this divisive mechanism and make our Nigeria beautiful again. Yes, we have been robbed, divided, and made to hate and fight each other but beyond these atrocities, if we really care about transforming our country, choosing Peter Obi would be a smart move.

Whatever that is man-made doesn't last.

This is why they have always reiterated the called for the unity of the country from abroad which is like a routine maintenance of an object

If Nigeria today is an item created as a result of selfishness then the only remedy before it can progress further is it's disintegration into ethnic lines.

Only when this happens that individual ethnicity would realize who they are and what they posses.
