Now, I have always called for an outright break-up of the country; but, there is something we can do to keep it together, which I think is a more plausible alternative - True federalism! For those who don't know how it works, here's a link for you to check out. http://www.truefederalism.org/

Restructure the country according to the yearnings the people and their aspirations for self determination- which is along ethnic lines.

Some would argue that we can't create states for 250 ethnic groups but last time I checked, there are less than 30 ethnic groups in the country-about 10 in the entire Southern Nigeria alone. Where are the other 240 ethnic groups located. People just mix up a lot of things to confuse people. There are about 30 ethnic groups in Nigeria with about 1,200 languege dialects.

We must stop the greed of Nationalization of ND oil resources which is tantamount to the abandonment of agriculture & solid minerals. Every section of the country is abundantly blessed with one resources or the other, but greed is the other of the day in this country -"Feeding Bottle" & free money federalism. The economy of South Africa is larger than oil rich Nigeria, yet SA is sustained by solid minerals.

God save ND from domestic colonialism!

^^^^^ unfortunately, the discovery of oil - which was meant to be a blessing - has been the bane of Nigeria.
