NYSC ko, NYSC ni. All the yrs weh dem don dey do nysc, wetin dem achieve. Na just avenue for govt to chop money. The best NYSC can do is to give inter ethnic friends and all Nigerians know that in Africa, family comes 1st before friends. Marriage yields families especially when the marriage is blessed with children-the two tribes become 1 family. Marriage ensures more commitment that leads to togetherness as a family than friendship. |

tigger56: GBAM! spoken well brother! I tell you. what we need right now is Semi-sutonomous Tribal Confederacies . We can still help each other , yet maintain our distinctness. This will be fair to smaller tribes as well, instead of clubbing many tribes under the genralized geographical banners like North, South East, Middle Belt, etc. These colonial clubbings have proven very harmful to smaller ethnic groups by assimilating them into dominant neighbouring cultures. |

Inter-ethnic because there is no hw Hausa People will started killing Igbo's or Yoruba's knowing fully well that their people ar married to them, neither will Igbo $ Yoruba people kill each other knowing fully well that they ar in-laws $ they might kill their own people @ d point of d fight. So inter-ethnic marriage is d remedy to Nigeria peace $ Unity...... |

Marriage is the faster way to promote national integration. NYSC's contribution is infinitestimal in this regard. |

Both are good, it wil make someone appriciates the cultural values of other ethnic groups and also exposes us to first hand information about other regions not what d paid media wants us to believe |

Area-Fada: Why can't the US be an example? You have Italians, Germans, Swedish, French, English, Japanese, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Chinese, Jamaicans and other nationalities to numerous to count. Nigeria is NOT as diverse as America and yet the US is more united than Nigeria. if the US is a mix of European cultures as u said, is Nigeria not a mix of African cultures? |

Afam4eva: Apart from that, are people going to be forced to marry from outside their tribe in the name of unity? I think the best bet is just to enact laws aimed at fostering unity among Nigerians. The laws we have in Nigeria are very divisive in nature.This is it , we need the law! Atimes,I think U use Brain-Pills and some other time, U just Gbua ! Kudos there ! |

All nigeria needs at this crucial moment to foster national intigration is a for genuine PEOPLES' CONSTITUTION to b in place..and that would be after da SOVEREIGN NATIONAL CONFAB.. The constitution must ensure that everybody's rights-regions,communities,peoples,states-are respected n guaranteed. Either da ppl gather at da long overdue SNC to deliberate n strucure/fashion out a PEOPLES' CONSTITUTION,or its da also long overdue CURTAINS. |

The question is: is there as much divisiveness in reality or does the internet appear to just blow things out of proportion? Do we really hate each other or do we just have the natural respectful dislike everybody has for anybody from somewhere else? Think of it. I go to markets and I see Igbo and Yoruba traders trading side-by-side without hassle, helping each other and sometimes making sales in the absence of their neighbour from another tribe. If we hated each other that much, would we be able to do that? I mean, sure the Yoruba man might think Igbo men like money too much or the Igbo man might think the Yorubas throw quite a lot of parties but then, think of it as an American thinking a German drinks too much beer and the German thinking the Americans really love guns. It doesn't mean they hate each other. The problem is that some people come online and just wantonly bash other tribes because they feel it is harmless but a huge majority of the people that engage in tribal bashing online have really good friends from the tribe they are bashing but they feel they're just catching fun at someone else's expense. If there is any divisiveness, it is from some of our leaders who try to play us off against each other. Incidentally, among our corrupt leaders, they aren't tribally divisive. They share the money and everybody is happy meanwhile we keep deceiving ourselves that we hate each other. 1 Like |

I guess Nigerians that marry Ghanaians and vis-à-vis should have harmonized the relationship between Ghana and Nigeria. In fact, it should have led to the formation of a country called Ghageria.

Like I always say, those of you who are into booty calling and the like, should stop confusing your se.xual liberation ( or is it s.exual escapades) with national integration. The two are entirely different things with no correlation at all. 1 Like |

Inter-ethnic Marriages Or NYSC Which Can Promote National Integration Better? What WILL promote national integration better is when the "Educated Illiterates" in our midst start getting rid of their "Stinking Thinking" and drop their backward tribalistic tendencies. I often wonder how a supposedly enlightened, exposed and educated Nigerian can be more tribalistic than an illiterate who did not go to school. |
