In you honest opinion, did you think Nigeria should remain one Nation?

Please support your answers with reason.

Nigeria has never been one. It never has and probably never will be.The reason the "elite" parading themselves as "leaders" (who are leading us no where) decide to keep the country as "one" is to be able to loot from the resource states.Mark my words, the day oil finishes in the South is the day the North will break away from this geopolitical joke called Nigeria.

Furthermore, this country has the potential of being unified in the real sense of things.We are not the only multi-ethnic country in the world (China for example of composed of different tribes and different dialects.They all look the same in appearance though).

The problem is the so called "leaders".They are the ones who cause the divide (tribalism).To be precise, the reason why Nigeria is not united today is due to four main causes.The last two are results of the first two namely :

(1)Greed
(2)Tribalism
(3)Lack of focus (which is caused by the first which is greed)
(4)Lack of patriotism (which is caused by the second which is tribalism).

At the end of it all, all "Nigerians" want the same thing e.g good roads,decent education,steady power supply,pipe borne water and so on.If the northern militants had access to proper education and a better life, do you think they would be crazy enough to cause the mayhem of last week?Nope.I think NOT.Also, the "leaders" know that the best way to keep this country "running" in their favor is to cause division amongst the people and also keep them in poverty.It's easier to manipulate a human being that lacks the basic essentials of life (common sense).I mean, think about it.Nigeria is the only country where a governor can wake up one morning and tell it's citizens to pay taxes on electronics they bought with their own hard earned money (Fashola).You can't see such nonsense happening anywhere else in the world.We tolerate this because the people can't speak in one voice (tribalism) and also, the people are not empowered (poor and mostly illiterate).

Nuff said

Let your answers be yes, or no. Or short (really short) phrases.
No, because there's too many tribes not getting what they want.
Yes, for the strength, the international influence
