Sir,the 'Northern military' used the stolen money for themselves and not on the average Northerner.By the way,did the average Northerner encourage soldiers of Northern extraction to carry-out coup d'etat back then?No and talk true,'the owners' of the oil are no angels either.Are they?

A very simplistic explanation IMO. Lagos is not in any way nucleated as you would want to believe. Lagos is densely populated, and that across all of the state.
Sir,Lagos is 70% slum

The average northern state gets about #2.5b per month while the average southern state gets #8.5b courtesy 13% derivation...yet the southerners keep saying all sorts of things...does this means the south should blame the north for their underdevelopment?.

The north is Mecca if some sorts where most people.wanna visit,that's why people like zik,ojukwu,ike nwachukwu,nzegwu were all born in the north.The north has accommodated southerners and have even taken them as brothers,that's y you must see an ibo or yoruba family in the smallest town in the north...
Chq out the attached naija map..see the massive land mass stretching from adamawa to benue to kogi and to kwara...the north is thrice the southern contraption....

The north still believes in one Nigeria and that's why they they always smile off irritations from their southern guys who wants division...

There is no doubt that the north is an embodiment of cultural architectural beauty and most of the pics here are not even up to 0.0001 of what's in the north
this is probably the lie of the year.religious riots started in the north even before independence-try wikkipedia for more info.you cönvienently forgot to mention the murder of southerners by their so called brethren after buhari lost .the north is pervalently violent,persimonious,greedy and expert liers till we are given reasons to think otherwise.

ONE NIGERIA
Sometimes i begin to wonder if the slogan 'ONE NIGERIA' is actually real.
Most nigerians already know that the slogan 'ONE NIGERIA' is only about time.
I see a nation,one nation bound in bondage,violence and disunity totally opposite of what can be obtained from its national pledge.
A time will come when the bondage will be broken and freedom will take place.
A time will come when violence will bring peace for all the inhabitants of this nation.
A time will come when disunity,going our own ways will bring strength and unity for the people.
The nation was built on falsehood and forcehood.
Not minding what you think or wish!
A time will come when the word NIGERIA will be split and every single letter in that word will be independent!
SOON! SOON!! SOON!!!
Sir,let's cut the crap.I agree,Nigeria is fuccked up but if it breaks up into a billion pieces,those billion pieces will still be fuccked up.The reason?The inhabitants of Nigeria are fuccked up

Lol@ influx of northern youths into the south. don't know exactly the point you intended to make with that statement but my guess is you are implying the north is so bad its people are leaving it. FYI bro, there is also a massive influx of southerners into the north and I dare say there are more southerners up north than there are northerners down south...yea; even with BH.
that said, enough of all these hate from you southerners. gosh you guys are beginning to sound petty, really. I don't see northerners doing same in similar threads about the south.
Sir,there are so many igbos and yorubas in the North so many that all my closest friends are yorubas and igbos.That's why whenever I see both groups talking trash about Northerners on this forum,I'm always shocked

Well spoken! i was born in kaduna got married here. I can proudly say this I CAN'T live in any state is Nigeria as side this state (Kaduna). i see so many people running their fingers typing nonsense about the north. I am a southerner, so dont begin to think if am one aboki. what i expect people living in the south should do is ask your leaders your so called governor, senators and co to stop embezzling your money and put it into developing your states. Mind you only in the north you travel over 200 - 300km and there is no single pothole. grin shocked.

Our only problem now is this MAD GOVERNOR what's that his name Yerembarassed doing nathing well! we are voting him out God help us only if they don't rig the election or APC file the lousy one HELLrufia.

Bless you my sister. I was born and lived here even though originally i am from Enugu state. The state has given me too much comfort and prosperity that any time, any day, i regard myself a kd boy. I looked forward to contribute my quota to the state as God permit and not being an ingrate to speak ill of it. I don't know about other states, but kd remain one state that discrimination remain almost zero. Nobody bothers where you are from as far as you don't indulge in criminal. I fell much at home that i have forgotten about where i come from. I believe, that is the spirit of unity and onesness which the north must be commended for.

yea try and visit Enugu and you would never regret it * we are very acommodating *.. Enugu is the capital of igboland as well as kano capital of the North west. Try and eat our indigenious food (OKPA), because i also ate wai-na and Dan-ma- lai-lai in kano (sha you know them ) tongue

Onitsha is nice but don't go to Aba ooo if not you would be suprise.. All the infrastruture in Aba are warn-out and decaying and the govt do not even care with reason best known to them. But i knw Aba would come back stronger!

portharcourt (am presently in ph ) is in south-south and a nice city if i must say. They are predominantly Ikwerre who attually speak and understand igbo but clam not to be igbo because of their oil reserve. But tribe like calabari and Ogoni can not be ignored.
Portharcourt is a cesspool

What happened was rather unfortunate, but i think we are re-writting history now with the experience on both sides of the divide. You need to imagine being born here to appreciate how homely it is. Being on the other side, it's easy for you to pass judgement, but most people here would have no other place to call home like this place. Religious or ethnic differences and violence can happen any where irrespective of where you are.

It's on Kaduna-Abuja expressway, a very vast expanse of land. But I guess the main activity there is poultry since big housings for chickens are visible from the highway.

The OP has tried. Some people have never left their state before and all they think about the north is that it is a complete rural area, however there is a lit of development in the north
Although the north is also very impoverished, that is to show that their leaders stile money for themselves alone. Besides how many states are economically viable in Nigeria outside Lagos state. They cannot be up to 3.only one thing unites all if us in Nigeria, our leaders have not been good to us
Poverty unites all if us.
