Dirkcoyt: Is that so? There is a reason I am emphasising England here and not Great Britain. Do you think England started off a country with a single tribe/clan? Did you read the link in my original post ? |

Ugosample:What is the difference between America and Canada? As for Switzerland, the dominant ethnic group are the Germans who make up 70 percent of the country. You love mentioning Belgium and Switzerland. How many ethnic groups are in these countries? Let me list them for you. Belgium - ethnic Dutchs 66%; ethnic French 25%; Germans 1%; immigrants 10%. Switzerland - Germans, 70%; French, Italians, Romans and minorities make up the other 30%. So you see? Belgium has 3 ethnic groups while Switzerland has 4. These countries have dominant ethnic groups. How can you compare those countries with Nigeria with 300 ethnic groups. What is the dominant ethnic group in Nigeria? You have Ijaws, Fulanis, Tivs, Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Idoma, Igala, Ebira, Ibibio, Efik, Kanuri, Urhobo, Benin, Esans, Nupes and so on and you think this is normal? Inside one country? No it is not normal 1 Like |

If the bitch you called her was refering to something else, please say so. If you are calling her a bitch for being a loving supportive woman then it is not right.My 2 cents. Peace! |

wayodude: England has an identity bro, they share the anglo-saxon identity. from Wessex to Sussex up to york. they've shared identity. What identity does yoruba and a kanuri share? Please don't let us stress this matter, if you're a student of history you should know the English have subgroup but same identity. Just like Italia, we have kingdom of Naples, Florence, Sicily, Milan, Venice, Rome, Bologna all separate kingdoms before the greater Italia emerged but they've all be engaging each other from time immemorial. There so many ethnic group in Nigeria that have never had anything to do with each other pre-British rule. 1 Like |

Patrioticooduan: Not everyone in the north is hausa or fulani, there are so many tribes there that it's not even funny. What is going to happen to them? Most African countries can't even stand on their own without foreign aid and you want to create more headcases who will be going to the west to beg for aid. |

davidif:African countries began having problems after the Berlin conference. The Berlin was setup by Europeans to divide Africans into countries so they can be colonised. This was the genesis of African downfall. How can you coalesce ethnic groups that share no similarities into one and expect them to be one? Things are not done this way. Some of the tribes fought wars for years, and you want them to unite? Who does that. Even the Europeans know the root of Africa's problem. 200 years ago, the average European earned twice more than the average African. But today, they earn twenty times than us. This shows Africa is not progressing. Futhermore, Africans are still being colonised today. France and Britain are still colonising Africa. Why do you think they won't allow Nigeria to split? Because it benefits them. If Nigeria split, Yoruba, Igbos, and Hausas will begin to develop themselves. But under Nigeria, they will fight for superiority. These three African ethnic groups are like the Germans, Italians, and French of Europe. They are large nations that will grow tremendously when they leave Nigeria. They would rule and make independent decisions to develop their land. 5 Likes |

Patrioticooduan: You've spoken well my brother.. exactly what I teach others. But it's more disheartening that supposedly educated ones are so daft and bereft of this simple knowledge. I still see senior lecturers that opposes splitting of Nigeria into smaller governable units with the foolish excuse that Yoruba or others will suffer most because access to crude oil money would have been cut away. They can't see the blessings of nature diversely in every region which is able to make each region great. You see foolishness abounds in all sector in this country and that's why we're where we are... it's terrible. 2 Likes |

Patrioticooduan: India is more culturally diverse than Nigeria. So are many other countries that are doing far better than we currently are. Balkanizing a country based on cultural diversity cannot guarantee development. Check your home state (wherever that is) for example, I'm quite sure that at one time or the other, there has been a battle for supremacy among the indigent tribes. Spain is not as diverse as we are, yet Catalunya wants away. If we go that route, we will keep breaking apart with high hopes until we have autonomous families or even individuals and still we will not find fulfilment. Nigeria is not too large to succeed. All we need is mutual respect and the political will to do the right things. |

[url][/url] Patrioticooduan: Those are wild assumptions you are making there. This are the same assumptions South Sudan and Eritrea made when they were splitting up. The truth of the matter is that diversity is a strength and Nigeria can work just like Spain, Malaysia, Indonesia work. It's just that the current model has to be changed. We need to decentralize power. This current model we are practicing where everything is centralized from policing to education is not working. We need to go back to the old model of decentralized govt we practiced before the military took over where the nation only had a few regions (as opposed to 36 different states) with a certain degree of autonomy allowing them to grow at their own pace. This is the style of govt Spain practices and Canada and it has been successful. |

biotechshola: Oga, it's one of our major problems... while separating may not turn us to a first world country instantly or make us the best, it will go a long way to reduce our problems. We are a different kind of people with multiple problems. You're an educated fellow please. we can't continue doing the same thing the same way and expect good results. You can't compare Nigeria with all those countries in terms of Law and justice or leaders with vision. what about religious extremists killing up and down and people who are supposed to be leaders turn a blind eye bcoz of politics and because their tribesmen are involved? And you think such a country will be settled. The global village and technology present today is the only thing that made citizens in Nigeria better a bit if not Nigeria today is worse than 80's and 70's. Do you think herdsmen or Boko Haram will surface in Nigeria in those days with those crop of soldiers we have then and they will allow it? Nigerians suffered under them but insanity in killings and kidnappings wasn't the order of the day then. Now, soldiers in the army have become very weak and politicised and they're dying like chickens and you believe it's the same way we should continue. Bro.. lemme tell you, nothing has changed since 1960... it's the same cycle. The better days were the regional days not any other time and the evil leaders we have don't even want total restructuring not to talk of secession and you think we're heading somewhere or people will be calmed down to live together! No! if Buhari leaves and other tribes have favor with power, do you think they will spare Fulani people? It doesn't happen like that sir. Everyone will take their own pound of flesh for every injustice they felt were meted to them. That said, the best thing is to give ourselves reasonable space, if not the woes will continue while the rest of the world moves on, and I'm sure you won't support recolonisation cos we're damn pitiable. 1 Like |

Patrioticooduan: You're talking jare...you're the kind that gives hope to the use and goodness of commonsense. Those opposing you are the kind that won't let country move forward as adults. Despite their education they won't know what to do. Na their types they give Miracle 25,000 dollars and first class students 10000 naira They think governing people successfully is easy. Many leaders can't lead a local government successfully, they want lead a complex country like naija thinking it would work. Don't be deceived by many youths talking here, if some of them reach leadership post, they won't act right. They won't do many things with common sense or learn from successful leaders but they will continue in foolish quest of insanity on impossible tasks. 1 Like |

emorse: Sir, I don't know your tribe.... but talking about respect, you won't get that from religious extremists from the Core North. Even some educated ones among them are more dangerous than some of their illiterates. Respect when some encroach others, rape and kill people without anything being done. Or is there respect when some northern elites own oil blocs down south but southerner can't lay claim to any national resources up north. Respect? You think those people will wanna succumb to rightness. It's a pipe dream sir. It won't get better until we address the right issue by separating regions. It's very simple to see. But to deny it and expect goodness, it won't happen. If Nigeria gets better a bit just as Obasanjo era, it's still coming back to its unrest. it's been like that. It's cycle upon cycle = stagnation. Another crazy leader will still come and destroy things and his tribe will support him to the detriment and anger of other tribes. 1 Like |

Patrioticooduan: excuses upon excuses Do you know that the French are dominant despite their number in Belgium? Do you know that the oromo are running the country despite being minority? The white are minority in all south African countries yet they are dominamt These things are more complex than the way you are simplifying it Nigeria can work if we want it to Somalis are Somalis and look at the shape of that country South Africa Is multi ethnic and they are ahead too. There is strength in diversity if we can manage it! but as I always say, even if you divide Nigeria Africa into ethnic groups, the condition will even be worse Countries who broke out in Africa are not faring better either So what are we saying? Nigeria will lose its diplomatic clout too if it breaks up, which Is not going to happen anyways so.... |

wayodude: that is what these people don't understand There is no such thing as real homogeneity of we really want to look at it. The Celts, Angles, Saxons, etc were as different as anything The viking incursion was what brought them together to repel it. over the centuries, those differences were blurred and they became less different Italians are as different as it comes 300 years ago A Turin man is not the sane as one from Sicily Black man just have issues and is still at the primitive stage of identifying himself by clannish classifications The country can still work, but the youths are not ready They are still benefiting from it.a 1 Like |
