The northerners are the most intelligent people in Nigeria. The Southerners are just bunch of jokers, chest beaters and noise makers especially the Igbos and Yorubas. Yes I'm Igbo but I don't have to lie, I say it as it is without mincing words.

How can you Southerners claim to be wise and intelligent people yet you can't unite or make any decisions in your country lol.

The North decides what happens in Nigeria, appointments, projects, allocations, economy, security I mean EVERYTHING. They even decide who wins governorship elections in our respective states. Most of our governors are their puppets that must do their bidding or get kicked out. But we still claim to be king kong. Check all the mega projects going on across this country, from high speed railways to power, roads, bridges etc. The bulk of these projects are in the north and it didn't start today, it's been like this for ages, even our own Jonathan couldn't locate any major developmental projects to the South.

The northerners don't joke with their language, culture and their radio stations. The southern jokers are more interested in foreign culture, NOLLYWOOD, zword and many nonsensical stuffs that adds no value to their lives.

During elections the so called intelligent southerners don't even come out to vote in large numbers, they sit in their homes and tell you how the election has already been rigged, ndi iberibe.

But the so called not so educated northerners will come out in large numbers to vote, if possible sef they add their goats, chickens and even under age bc they understand it's a game of numbers.

The Northerners may not be as educated as the Southerners but they are way smarter in all ramifications.

We are still in 2020 but the North have already united to make sure their anointed son that will protect their best interest becomes the next president, they will always succeed because they are United and speak with one voice.

But the south is divided against ethnic lines, its either the Igbos are accusing the Yorubas or the Yorubas are accusing the Igbos. Anyday these two groups come together things will change for the better.

I want to see a Nigeria that will be run by the best brains and not because he is from our tribe or religion.

So many potentials are wasting here, to even run a successful business here is difficult because of poor government policies. To set up a business here you must provide your own electricity, water, security etc

A lot countries granted tax wavers for both companies and individuals cause of Coronavirus pandemic, but what we seeing here is multiple taxation.

What about the stupid bank charges? Below are series of charges always placed on innocent customers in a single banking transaction.

1 VAT.
2. Account maintenance charges
3. SMS alert charges
4. Transfer charges
5. Postal STAMP DUTY charges
6. Weekend charges.

I'm a trader, I sell building materials which includes cement and others. The landing cost of a bag of cement is #2,550 while we sell #2,600. That is a profit of just #50 per bag of cement.

Now on every 2 bags of cement, a customer transfers #5,200 into my account due to CASHLESS policy and my profit is #100.

To my amazement, the bank deducted the following on that transaction!

1. #53 transfer charges.
2. #100 Postal STAMP duty.
3. #6.98 VAT.
4. #76 SMS alerts charges.
5. #93.13 account maintenance charges.

If that was not enough, on every single transaction, both account FROM which money is being transferred and the account TO which money is being transferred were charged for same transaction.

This is just a tip of the iceberg and this is why we cannot successfully fight corruption in Nigeria. Infact, corruption and crime is on the increase because as long as most people are poor in a any country, crime and corruption will be on the increase, if you like build prison and police station in every village poor frustrated hungry youths must find a way to survive, legally or illegally. I don't support crime of any kind, I'm just saying the government should wake up and build a better economy so as to lift people out of poverty. It's on record that most poor countries are crime ridden.

Also, I'm Igbo and a Christian but I don't hate anyone, I love Hausas, Igbos and Yorubas.
I'm just a truth SAYER eventhough many people don't want to hear the truth but I still have to say it as it is.

This is just a wake up call to the South to wake up from sleep and take their rightful place or forever remain relegated to the backyard.

Except you wanna learn history how south isn't United from 1950, don't go there.

Lastly, What must be done to unite south lies in 2023.
The investments of both regions in different parties.

Igbo in PDP
Yoruba In Apc.

if the political parties don't field it like this then forget it.

The guy is making a lot of sense. But it will b very hard for Yoruba to unite with igbo. Even if they try to, igbo will see them as a double face people as usually

Why was the south not United in the 1950s ..can't u say it ..what happened ..are u scared ?

lol, why must I be scared when I know the person that hand over South to North, When I know those that organized the first coup, when I know the person that starts the end of regional government, when I know those that usually votes the North instead of south (Except 1999 even tho, he was a Fulani puppet)

My point remains.

What must be done to unite south lies in 2023.
The investments of both regions in different parties.

Oo yes, that's why their literacy level is at 34%
Remove the hands of Britain let's see how intelligent they are, could they even fix ordinary rag tag boko haram for the past ten years? Can't you see how the country have developed under their quota system tutelage?
Guys who are intelligent will drive development from all corners, but what we have here is a group of dullards who were imposed on us all and sustained by Britain, cause of their stup1dity, the British man sees him as the easiest to manipulate in his Neo colonialism ideology, in addition to the yoruba man's evil envy stricken ugly black heart.

Intelligent people that are bombing themselves in a fight to practice 12th century Islam, Id1ots who can't pass ordinary primary school entrance exams , not to talk of jamb

U are and intelligent person and u think shut up is and Insult ...so much for your education

We in SW have opened our hands, lands, hearts and even our resources to all southeners and even to northerners that don't deserve this
But some South easterners always aim to kick us in the balls

Thank goodness they always miss and hit their foot on stone while blaming us for not opening our legs wide for them not to miss.

As can be seen by how prosperous the North is abi?
Very intelligent set of people that's why we have Boko Haram, bandits, iswap there while they remain the at the helm of military too
Very intelligent people indeed

Preach my brother
If we don't speak out, the fools voice would drown everyone's.
They have successfully taken over nairaland

Intelligent illiterates producing homeless terrorists

It's really strange to me that an average illiterate Yoruba person won't have any problem collaborating with Igbos and during my time in the East, I noticed how the people treated everyone with open arms no matter their tribes. They were in fact very ready to learn more about the Yorubas greetings, foods etc. But then you come online and it's the so called educated people shouting "this tribe is to blame, no it is this". Seems their education is really a big disadvantage to their unity. I once met an Igboman you'd call "average citizen". When he started telling me about the civil war (which he witnessed as a young person then), it still pains me I couldn't spend more time listening to him. Then you see the young people who are only open to skewed literature hating themselves while their enemies keep wrecking havoc.

My brother the real thing is that most people online who claim to be from one tribe are false and are always on a mischievous mission to spread hatred and division among the south because they know how powerful this unity can be on a global scale level.

The real problem is the supporters this mischievous comments get when it is posted, instead of them condemning it for deescalation of hatred.
This thing is really bigger than we think.

Cunning not intelligence!

Good evening all, for the first I have to comment on this thread cos someone has said the truth.
I want ask, if people understands the problem, why has no one done something about it?
Why can't we start here in this NL to attack anyone who opens a thread to spite any tribe, every tribe in this forum should tell that person off by so doing people will stop insulting people here.
That's my own suggestion.
Regards

Very Correct , especially the Almajiris

I agree with you.

Sure, the North are the most sensible. They lead while we in the EAST follow.

Chairman......I dey tuale.......




Op you're right......we can't be claiming of being wiser or intelligent but the north keeps playing with our brains........
It is unwise that we should allow them dominate us

Larger part of the problems affecting Nigerian society is greediness. The level of corruption in police force and Custom service are unimaginable. Many of the officers in these two institutions must be removed.

They cause a lot of unnecessary pains to average Nigerians on daily basis without remorse. In the Airports, seaports, highways, etc. Many of them are useless and should be rid off from those govt agencies.

You have raised very brilliant points, some of us that have been living outside the country are actually tired. I can't imagine my coming generations still be living like second class citizens, a reality for people of colour no matter where you're.
