obailala:Nigeria is volatile country, nobody can predict what will happen to Nigeria in next 50 years, currently the sharing of oil money bind us together as a nation, there is no love between the people of Nigeria but hatred, nations that hate their self cannot last, Nigeria will divide one day, when people like you believe that your follow country people should relegated to background for 50years and you think that you will have peace, Boko haram, IPOB; Niger Delta militant, Shiite uprising is loading, people will die, even you are not save because you did not tie your life to a tree, People that die in motor accidents, Boko haram bombings, Armed robbery attacks are all human beings, nobody is save in Nigeria. Politicians in Nigeria are all criminals that are just after their pocket both APC and PDP because they know that Nigeria is no mans land. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Rayhutar:My thinking is this, the myriad of problems facing Nigeria are very well known to all. Like you rightly mentioned, politicians in Nigeria are criminals and these criminal politicians are not restricted to any tribe or religion, they cut across the entire divide and I believe this dearth of patriotic leadership is the biggest problem. So in view of this, what I do not understand is how someone starts a movement preaching more hate along tribal lines as the solution to the problems. How on earth can dividing the country into a million parts solve these problems you've just highlighted?... Why do Africans always think that further division is a solution to a problem even when from history, it is a known fact that division only leads to further division? To then compound it all, it is the tribe with the widest economic spread that is calling for this further division; it is a known fact that if there's a division in Nigeria today especially in the way the separatists are calling for it, the biggest economic and social losers would be Igbos but I just wonder why the principal agitators seem to ignore this fact. Sometimes it drives me to believe these main agitators are just never-do-well 'bad-belles' who want to pull all their 'doing-fine' brothers down. We have not sorted our leadership problems in the grassroot (States govts, LGAs and representatives), but someone thinks a division is an automatic panacea for all our problems? 3 Likes |

obailala: @Obailala, I like your write up(I like people who criticize and give reasons for their criticism) but our opinion differs here because i am of the opinion that we will do better as a divided nation,my reasons are as follows: Our present country has been designed to favour some regions in terms of employment(Quota system)making the other region to be a conquered territory and this alone cripples patriotism and morale of people from that region. Our present country has made policies that indirectly made the operations and activities of the seaports/airports in the marginalized region to be less attractive compared to the other regions that rapour with the so called super region(Hausa/Fulani). We will do better as a divided nation because competition among the separated country will come up especially between the old eastern region and old western region and these competition will lead to more developments in the two different countries. We will do better as a separate countries because we can easily hold our representatives accountable and tell them to their face whatever they are doing wrong(Okorocha speech at chattam House a case study), but if we remain one the corrupt leaders will be jumping all this atrocious act easily because once their tenure elapse they can easily settle in Abuja or leave the country because they know once they go back home that his people doesn't tolerate rubbish(Especially south eastern region, Ezeife of Old Anambra state can attest to this because of what happened to him by his kindreds because he couldn't construct a single road in his village while he was constructing other village roads when their administration were cut short by the military) but as a multi ethnic group made politicians to escape prosecution easily because they can easily instigate their people that he wasn't permitted to work because of other tribe attitude in his ministry/department/portfolio/designate. As a divided country, i think people will be closer to the government because the area square metre to be governed will be minimized and it will make everybody to easily identify with the federal/state/local govt to sort out the various problems they have(Eg someone from PH can go to Enugu for an occassion/appointment and still return back to PH that same day)been facing as a citizen of that country. Industries will be promoted more as a divided country because tribalism will be relegated or minimized to the lowest level,if not outrightly eliminated and the government will always promote policies that will favors his people because they have same belief(Eg Igbos are egaliterian in nature while the northerners are oligarch in nature). As a divided country, ministries(Embassies and federal government structures/offices)will be nearer to the people which will reduce the amount people spent on going to either lagos or Abuja for their visas to travel outside the country. Lastly, but not the list to be continued later is that as a separate country hidden good talents will begin to emanate/come out because now tribalism is not longer the cankerwarm that will make their God given talents not to be hidden is gone,both the quota,nepotism et al will be gone and when this has taken place you will observe that inventions will begin and technologies will also improve. So the summary of what am saying is that TRIBALISM has really eaten deep that no remedy can salvage the situation. 3 Likes 1 Share |

obailala:You have spoken well, to me I don't really support the disintegration of Nigeria, but the reality on ground is that if quick restructuring of Nigeria is not done, Nigeria will disintegrate because there is too many diverse ethnic group in Nigeria with different cultures, The UK system of government will be the best form of government in Nigeria where 3 countries can emerge and have a common central government like UK that has Scotland,Wales,England and Northern Ireland; Even other countries like China has Macau,Tibet, Hong Kong and Taiwan as part it. |

macluvph1:At the bolded, I wonder why Nigeria government cannot build another standard Airport in Kano, Enugu and Port Harcourt and make it very attractive so that if you are flying from Abroad to Nigeria, you fly directly to Kano, Enugu to East, Port Harcourt to SS and Lagos to the West that will create alot of Job, Build a standard sea and river port in Onitsha, Akwa Ibom,Imo, Kogi and Kaduna that will open up inland water transport and reduce the pressure on road transport, like goods and services can be transported easily from Onitsha to Kogi, Kaduna. 2 Likes |

macluvph1:The only point I really agree with you 100% is the singular cankerworm called quota system which has held Nigeria backwards for decades. If there is any form of division I would support, it is a north-south divide or pure regionalism and nothing more. Developed and advanced nations across the world are looking for ways to come together and that is for a good reason, however in Africa, all we talk of is division. I can assure you that the other issue you mentioned such as the government being close to the people etc will not bring about any positive change. I could dare you to point out any society which really got better after division in Africa. We've divided states, we've divided LGAs countless times, but can we really point out how that helped us to get better governance?.... The best governors we've ever had since Nigerian history (e.g. Dee Sam Mbakwe) led the mega states of Imo and Abia combined. Can we say we've had better leadership since those states were divided?.... I'm sure we all know the answer to that to be a capital NO. The point is simple, there's a serious dearth of leadership, people get to power for the very wrong reasons and the true patriotic and visionary people will never be allowed by even you and I to get into power for some of the most flimsy reasons. No amount of division can solve the problem of leadership deficit. 1 Like |

Rayhutar:The very same reason why a Nigeria which could build brand new roads with money from palm oil, cocoa, groundnuts etc, but with much more money made from crude oil, we are struggling to maintain these roads, that same issue is the reason why Nigeria is unable to upgrade those airports at Kano, Enugu and Portharcourt and that is also the reason why all seaports in Nigeria have been allowed to die while we overstress the last surviving ports at Lagos. The problem is a problem of leadership cutting across several zones and states and ethnic groups. 3 Likes |

shachris02: Dude, you just described yourself, and thought you were describing the average Igbo man or woman. You hate yourself, that is why you might want to remain a second class citizen in one Nigeria, become converted to Arabian life style and religion. Igbo doesn't hate Igbo. The effect of the lost civil war made some Igbos suspicious of of some Igbo. People like you are the Igbo saboteurs who made some Igbos start to be suspicious of their fellow Igbos. Ignorance is a disease. U don't know that Igbos merely troop to Nairaland to sell their cases for Biafra to rest of Nigeria. In Biafra online publication, it shall be like a monologue, that is Igbos talking about Biafra and Igbos responding. What do agitators for Biafra gain from such monologue? Guy park well, make intelligent Igbos waka pass. You may be living in Lagos, and wouldn't like to lose your earthly business and landed property with breaking dysfunctional Nigeria. Do you ever wonder what shall be the fate of your offspring in one Nigeria? Guy listen, IPOB so far has silenced those who intimidate and humiliate you Igbo Lagosian: since IPOB demonstrations, those who tell Igbos to go back to their erosion-ravaged southeast, those who threaten you with Lagoon treatment, those who call you visitor in Lagos, visitor in a town in Nigeria which you call your country, they have been silenced, now they struggle for how to keep Igbo in one Nigeria, no more molestation, no more intimidation for your lot.

Fadekebisola:I was born in the north, did my youth service in Osun state, work for some years in Yoruba land, speak Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba, every tribe in Nigeria have their internal tribalism, Hausa-fulani is the worst, because in fulfuda family, the yellow fulani jerji kill the black fulani jida, fulani jida are not nomads, they dont rear cattle's in the bush, Buhari is fulani jerji they are mostly yellow in completion and they live in the bush and rear cows. Hausa can never marry a fulani or Shuwa arabs or Kanuri and inside Hausa family they have 9 divisions, Yorubas have their own tribalism divisions among the Ogbomosho Yorubas who see themselves as superior Yorubas,the Oworis fight Egun, Ijebus and Ondo Yorubas are detested by the rest of Yorubas, Igbos have their own, the Anambra people see their selves as the best of Igbo, Nsukka and Abakiliki peoples are refereed to as backward people by the rest of Igbos, but they intermarry with them, In the order of tribalism between the tribes; The North is the worst followed by the West then the Igbos because there is high intermarriages between the Igbo tribes. In the north Hausa divisions dont intermarry, Egun cannot marry Awori, most Yorubas cant marry Ijebus,Egun,Aworis, Illaje and Ondo Yoruba tribes , infact they will prefer to marry Igbo instead of that ![]() ![]() ![]() |
