If this nation is to be divided today,expect more of these nationwide. The north itself would be an epic battle field between the Saudi Sunni and Iranian Shiite not to talk of ethnic resumption of hostilities between Fulani and the middle belt.

We need to tell ourselves the truth and come to the round table to look for peaceful ways we can collectively forage ahead or peaceful go our separate ways. If these two things fail then Nigeria would witness a great evil never seen before in the history of mankind.This generation must be bold to iron out these issues so that the next-generation can build on a clean slate.

Your analysis is 100% accurate.
This is one of the reasons the outcome of the National Conference needs to be implemented.
Next is regionalism, where the country is divided into the former geopolitical zones, and power is decentralized. It should be a gradual process, where impending conflicts such as this gets ironed out as they arise.

As it is now, once conflict breaks out anywhere in the country, the governor of such state cannot order the police force to take control of the situation. He has to get the president to do this instead. The president being far away, and occupied with other contingencies, will not appreciate the gravity of the problem until several lives have been lost, and there's a media outcry.

It should be apparent to everyone that the system of government we operate in this country is not working. We have experimented with it for over 50 years, and we still think it will suddenly begin to yield great results? We have lived in denial for far too long.

I agree with you. The question now is why are the APC led by tinubu who were so vocal about regionalism and state policing suddenly gone mute as soon as they took control of Fedreal government? Is this not treachery and moronic hypocrisy?

If this would solve our problems, how many splinter units by the way,? nothing can , except maybe if politics is less monitized & proper laws that guide conducts of citizens and due process are entrenched... IMHO..

Ife & Modakeke don't agree, small Ekiti/Ijebu communities that one can't even distinguish their boundaries have no peace.

Ijaw /Urhobo/Itshekiri always at loggerheads, The anangs, Efiks, Ibibios have their own sets of problems.

The age long Osu & some Ibo state/dialects claiming superiority over others is another different ball game.

Hausa Fulani won't allow the northern minorities breathing space!!

This country is a cluster bleep of effed up!!! angry

Nigerians complex problems defiles text book solutions but requires cutting edge alien inspired solutions. One would ordinarily say why not we just divide the geographical expression and go our separate ways but when you take into account genocide that would likely occur as a result of boundary disputes and rights to resources such ideas are easily dismissed.

I feel we as a people and Nigeria as a country has gotten to that point where we are faced with the stark choice of evolve or die.We either device new approaches to handling our affairs or we all gonna die!

Talk of who will be governor (Kogi state), the Igalas and Ebiras are at loggerhead.

What about Taraba, Benue, Plateau where we have different ethnic groups killing each other?

Go to Edo state, same thing.


What is the way out?

A true reflection premised on truth and justice regardless of whose ox is gored.

Governor Okowa SA on Security and the Local Government should respond immediately before the clash spirals out of control. The question i like ask is, what happenned to the monthly security in the State? Is it not holding anymore? Because if the meeting is in place red alert would have been noted. Finally most Local Government Chairmen are not proactive enough to do thier job. Its a pity!

That's the same reason why Nigeria still exists today. People who were otherwise reasonable, once they get elected or appointed, gets stifled by the spoils of office, namely, the loose and largely unaccounted for money accruing from crude oil sales. There's nothing like easy and free money to shut a man up.
Every single politician in this country know that we cannot survive as country if we keep going this way. But since they are the biggest beneficiary of the flawed system we operate, you do not really expect them to speak against it, do you?
So, they are all hang on to the ride and milk the nation dry, while hoping that this contraption of a country will last a little bit more longer for them to feed fat on it. Once their tenure ends, or they lose an election, there are hundreds of eager replacements waiting to take their place and "chop" their turn.

As for Tinubu, if APC had lost the last presidential election, his noise level would have became so scary by now. As it is, you hardly hear him make the tiniest squeak nowadays. He's enjoying his "investment". As far as he's concerned, regionalism and state police was a slip of tongue he made one morning after consuming a disproportionate dose of paraga grin

Then, it is no longer rocket science that our politicians are the clog in the wheel of our progress. It then follows that all our politicians both past and present cut across tribal religious lines should be rounded up and justice done before we then proceed to a round table to discuss the future. I still have a certain reserved respect for Kaduna chukwuma Nzeogwu for his ability to see ahead and attempt made to change the norm.

What we need is a strong character and a leader whose strong character can birth a national consciousness of faith in the sisterhood, no apology, called Nigeria. ask me if poverty n ignorance - the tools of mass mental slavery by the thieving Nigerian elites- understands Tivi, Igbo or igbira or other Nigerian language? No ma. How on earth would an educated youth ,for example, support an Amosun or a Dasuki whose pilfering has denied him and several others good schools, hospitals, jobs , electricity because he is' my bloda'? God so designed this beautiful country that the different hues of her tongues ,culture and geography when well mixed always form an awesome blend which is the Nigerian spirit.
We just need to change our orientation because Nigerians have been staying together for a long time and dividing us on paper does not remove the fact that we shall continue to be neighbors .
All we want is the judicious use of all our resources for the benefit of all irrespective of class,creed, tribe or age to create a wealthy mind in an healthy body , and only a strong and dedicated character that can give us that now.
I love Nigeria. God bless Nigeria.
