A leader of the pan Yoruba socio political organisation, Afenifere, Senator Femi Okurounmu, has warned that if the North remains resistant to restructuring of Nigeria, they will force it on them or break the country into two.

Okurounmu gave the warning while reacting to a statement credited to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, saying Nigeria cannot be restructured now until the constitution is amended.

Speaking with The Sun, Okurounmu, “I am not surprised by the statement of the AGF that the north will not support restructuring. The north does not want the status quo to change.

“They have always seen themselves as the only people fit to rule Nigeria. Anyway, we did not expect them to say otherwise; we must now force them.

“The people supporting restructuring are in the majority, hence, the minority cannot override us. And if they don’t want, we can then break Nigeria into two.

“They can go their own and we go on our way. That is the solution. We should stop asking them but force it on them, whether they want it or not.”

2 ke?
Its going to be 3 or more.

Point of correction Sir, the division of Nigeria would be into more than two component

4 or more countries na

Break Nigeria into two ke? Mbanu!

Nigeria should be broken into 20 countries! Or more sef.

its getting more and more interesting day by day

Restructure or Referendum.

Yorubas know how to waste peoples time. They know that the North will not agree to restructuring. Everybody knows that Yorubas do not want Nigeria to break up. So they are going to trumpet restrcturing for a while and do what they are best known for, become the beautiful bride of the North.

When Yorubas talk about restructuring, I dont take them serious

Of course. After all, out of the defunct Union of Soviet Sociaist Republics we now have Russia, Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Moldova, Turkeministan, Uzbekistan, Kazakstan, Krygstan, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan etc. So it would not be bad if Nigeria, for the sake of peace, and for the avoidance of future conflict and bloodletting, is balkanized into multiple part

well, this ur arrogant attitude wont take you anywhere woh

The truth is that most nairalanders are not decision makers.

In 1949, Obafemi Awolowo wrote a book tittled 'Pathway to Nigeria's Freedom' in that book he argued that an independent Nigeria should be structured into a very loose federation whereby all ethnic nationalities contained therein would be able to determine their own political, economic, and social affairs without undue interference from others. Guess who was against this noble suggestion? An ibo man, Nnamdi Azikiwe !! It was this same Azikiwe, insisting on one Nigeria, formed an alliance with the Northern Peoples Congress to make up the coalition government of the first Republic with Tafawa Balewa.

That epithet 'Beautiful bride of the North' was used by Alhaji Shehu Shagari as a slur against Namndi Azikiwe and his ibo people.

When an Afonja tells me to relax that all is well, I will jejely scamper for safety

Two comprising where and where? If Nigeria is to be split, God forbid that i share the same geographical space with those illiterate scoundrels the second time.

Nigeria will not break into two. Laye laye, kolejo!!! Unless the man means hausa and igbos for biafra and oodua for yoruba. Else, he is saying nonsense. Yoruba will have a separate country alone without a single minority.
We dont want them to disturb us with marginalization cries.
Awon omo odua ise ya!!!

Nigeria cannot be restructured. Infact i prefer this structure to regionalism because regionalism will fail woefully. There will be envy among regions. If you ask awolowo today, he will resist it.
Let us split once and for all and forget we ever knew nigeria existed.

I am here to observe the reactions of the afonjas...

Afonjas what do you all have to say to your prominent brother who made that statement?

osu ibo, how many yoruba do you see in your erosion ravaged, landlocked, redmuded, gulley devastated land? You ibo dregs are undesirables. Be gone already

Fulani has taken over Benue and you are calling them illiterate scoundrels



If Nigeria is broken into two you will be stateless and maybee SSomalia might take you in as a refugee

Divide into two first then biafra can now separate if they don't want to remain in the south...but without the north and true federalism in place..then those agitating for their own country might be doing it out of old grudges they have toward the other tribe.

The truth is that you can't compare the Soviet Union that splitted into several countries because they were very big,Nigeria is not as big as the Soviet Union.

Best bet is Regionalism and resource control or North and South Nigeria go their separate ways and I don't know if Yorubas and Igbos will see eye to eye on that.

At least, I know the entire South are religious tolerant and literate enough to live together.

If you balkanize Nigeria into 3 or more separate countries the power we wield today we not be there anymore. We will end up like small countries in Africa.

Nnamdi azikiwe is not a hero in our land so don't call him, we even wish he never existed. BTW this thing you wrote here is not how it happened.

The pathetic members of IPOB have know idea of history but good at propaganda..

Afonja which one is break the country into 2 again, Biafra is Biafra and not Biafonja so please stay on your own and create your Odudusha republic in the wasteland state.

Now I am beginning to see sense in calling you Abule slum dwellers and water front developers, unity beggars. now it is clear to see that Afonja can't stand on their own.

Two is good but many(regions) is better.

Let everyone bear his father's name.

A one Nigeria can never work cos differences are too glaring and we'll only be going in circles with no tangible development aside greedy elitist establishment scamming the populace as usual.

Says who, break this country into many pieces let like minds come together to form a country.
I want an only Yoruba country, I don't want any stone HENGER to accuse me of marginalisation just because he cannot match my intellectual prowess.

and what happens to having a small country devoid of hatred and violence?

Size doesn't matter when it comes to influence and power.


I prefer to live in a peaceful small country than this current nigeria, With boko haram up north and cannibalistic drug people to the east.

whenever I travelled out of the country, someone will separate me to check if I'm not carrying bombs or drugs.

Why would I wanna continue with that when the country breaks?

EvilMetahuman:
2 ke?

Its going to be 3 or more.

Thank you jare!
