A Must Read! by Nobody: 10:02pm On Mar 11, 2017
I found this interesting piece on Facebook:

Today every state is allowed to have her citizen as governor and legislators with very few exemptions, but no state in Nigeria is allowed to have her citizens as the military and police chief respectively. Reason being the federal character is a perfect measure put in place to recolonizing the South by Fulani Oligarch.
For those who are opened minded and are willing to understand the facts surrounding the subjugation of the Southern part of the British contraption called Nigeria, this write-up would awaken your sub- consciousness.

It was late 1967, the South couldn't unite against Gen. Gowon on his venture to invade the old Eastern region popularly known as Biafra. In recent time the narrative well accepted across Nigeria was that Ojukwu wanted South West under his territorial control which Obasanjo quelled and put an end to the civil war fiasco. And by 1970 the war was over with the slogan "no victor, no vanquish."

Unfortunately, there is a victor the Fulani Oligarch from North East Nigeria. Since this period in the history of Nigeria, the recolonization of the South was thus legalized through the binding constitution. The constitution of Nigeria from 1966 till date is 51years old, and many imagine why is it very hard to break free from this regressive, uninspiring, underdeveloping, backward, barbaric, and very corrupt document for five good decades?

There are however two-fold to examining this thought-provoking questions, and both centered around Federal character.
The British colonial thugs during colonization made a decree stating that every wealth and resources across Nigeria belong to the British government, and for over two centuries 90 percent resources and wealth of Nigeria was carted away to Britain for the development of the United Kingdom. However, to maintain this fraudulent and gruesome status quo, the colonial thugs used the military, police, and paramilitary to quash all resistance, rebellion or agitation to their fraudulent rule in the three protectorates.

Apparently, after the civil war, the North upheld the unitary system with the same systemic fraud as the decree by the colonial power. The Nigeria Constitution was changed from regionalism to Unitary clearly stated every wealth and resources of the country belong to the central government, and as a result recolonized every part of Nigeria with what the foolish Yoruba leaders that Ifa, Sango and the great Gbonka Ebiri would destroy termed the spirit of the federal character.

The danger of federal character doesn't lie with revenue sharing alone. It extends to the military which made the Fulani Oligarch have their presence in every state of the country, and upon any sign of agitation, just like the British the Fulani led military would unleash mayhem on peaceful IPOB members or Yorubas just as we witnessed in the ethnic clash with their Fulani counterparts in Ile-Ife recently.

Expatiating on the federal character, the country has 36 states while every state must be represented in the military and police, and like the British, the Fulani is in full control how? It is not a hidden fact that Nigeria since the fourth republic had allowed every state to field their indigene at all political stage except Igbos who want Lagos by all means. However, a vivid look into this structure one would then argue if my state men hold all political positions in my state, why would Fulanis be controlling the military barracks across Yoruba and Igbo land?
Isn't that thought provoking? Nigeria with 36 states and 35 governors, 35 military chiefs, 35 police commissioners, and all other paramilitary parastatals, had the North with 20 out of 36, effectively manning every conquered state in the South. The effect is that if there is any form of agitation in Yoruba land, the North constantly has personnel in uniform to quell such agitation. More reason we can never break free from this constitution that Rob south to enrich the few northern elites.

In America they have 50 states, California is bigger than Nigeria, Texas is close to the size of Nigeria have you ever asked why they aren't killing each other over presidency? It is because every $ made in each state 90percent is retained for the development of the state. Most importantly the governor controls military guard 100percent. In fact, Trump needs the governor's permission to request for military assistance from the state.

But under our colonial master's everyone lives in fear, Brutai recently said people seeking to restructure Nigeria should wait for four millennia, thanks to Sultan allies across Yoruba land the Fulani keeps us subjugated.
