Most Nigerians that speak up and oppose the call for secession always say this to to support their argument. I don't intend to cause any trouble but what does unity in diversity mean? 2 Likes 1 Share |

It means we don't share similar customs,culture,tradition etc but still we should learn to be one and tolerate one another |

Ahmadu Bello and Awolowo opted for a referndum clause in our constitution back then, but an Igbo man Zik declined due to his sinister agenda to enslave other Nigerians. The average Ibo man lacks foresight (no offence), they can't see beyond their nostrils. Had it been that the call for referendum wasn't opposed by Zik, the North won't have that born to rule mentality or ability to hold on to power. Now that it's somewhat late now, same ibos are now crying for secession. |

Alariiwo:That is where you people get it all wrong. Azikiwe was warned several times by the like of Mbonu Ojike, even Alvan Ikoku, and very many other Igbos about this nigeria thing, but because he was born in Zungeru, he dismissed their warnings, so blame Azikiwe, BTW, his grave is covered by very tall elephant grasses, it means nobody even his family members take him seriously, we veiw his as a plague to us, Look at Ambazonia, look at how they are suffering, all because of that usless man, Adamawa and Taraba would have gone to Cameroon but for the manly action of Amadu Bello they opted for Nigeria, while Bamenda and the rest went with Cameroon, because Azikiwe was clueless. I hate that man like there is no tomorrow. 3 Likes |

Alariiwo: Most Nigerians such as the poster of the above crap tend to dwell on innuendoes. During the 1950 general conference in Ibadan, Zik proposed confederation for the regions under the amalgamated Nigeria but Awo and Bello on the urging of the British refused such proposal. As a matter of fact, it was at this conference that Awolowo first threatened secession. Awolowo wanted the idiotic federalism crafted by the British while Azikiwe wanted confederation where the regions should be quasi- national entities. 1 Like |
