What Do You Think Can Actually Unite Nigerians? by logicalhumour: 6:56pm On Apr 06, 2023
For some reason, I kept thinking about the topic. At this point what can unite us? Prejudice seem to have eaten everyone.

Nigerian politics devides us, Religion devides us, Politicians devide us, and even the citizens have been thoroughly eaten by prejudice. We are diverse, and the very things that diversify us are the things that so mercilessly divide us.

Seriously, what's the way forward?

Nothing brings us together. There are only two choices:

Stay together and fight forever in Nigeria

Or disintegrate and fight no more

Return the stolen mandate, and Nigeria will survive.
If that mandate is not returned, Nigeria is finished.
This is a very simple and honest assessment of the truth.

Unity is relative.
To improve national cohesion.
1. Cancel all religious holidays
2. Remove all places of worship in public institutions.
3.Adopt a national language - Nigerian Pidgin English- as official mean of communication.
4. Abolish state of origin, instead state of birth or residence..

Where has this ever worked in history ?

Roman empire tried it for 600 years it's failed
Europeans fought foot 1000 years plus till they understood the simple social

The only way to unite is to separate along Ethnic lines ...simple

Once Nigeria go back to regional system along Ethnic lines u would see how united we would become simple

@OP.

Nothing can unite Nigerians. It is too late. What we need is regional autonomy to assist us all build independently successful lives in our States and region of Nigeria.

It is the only way we will learn to respect and appreciate each other again.

To unify the country : The Igbo

That's all I can tell you. We can keep pretending like we don't know. Until when we ready to accept the reality / have this kind of discussion / are truly tired of the status quo.


To unify, your answer is simply The Igbo

To build it is through the structure of balance and eradication of the fundamental Blackmans evil heart (predominant nature of black man (but it's not absolute))

To unify the country : The Igbo

That's all I can tell you. We can keep pretending like we don't know. Until when we ready to accept the reality / have this kind of discussion / are truly tired of the status quo.

With reference to this :

The conscience of the Igbo is the breathe of this nation. Ask yourself, since Nigeria started "mistreating" them, through plain evil sugar coated as "politics" has there been peace / that feeling of tranquility in this country ?

No.

Do you know the basis for that ? The Igbo have genuinely and sincerely stood for truth and justice but people that thought they are wise, thought they can fool them and decided to pay them evil for good; not knowing they were only playing themselves.

And we thought we're playing politics, but it was all about getting at people. But the bone that hung on the neck of Nigeria is that the people you're getting at, actually genuinely stood / supported you, with the heart of sincerity and integrity thinking they'd get back the favour

But what ?

Those who thought they were wise came shamelessly and want them to know that they've been played and not only that, they want them to see that they derive joy from playing them...

But then it is said that he that pays evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

and this is even like one shooting herself on the foot cos even the Igbo aren't been held down by those schemes

This is the bane of Nigeria ... This is the bone on its neck.

This conscience of the Igbo is what has set Nigeria against her own self and her own schemes.

Nigeria is fighting what she doesn't know. If you think what's happening to Nigeria ends with the 3-letter word, APC, you should think what inspires APC from the other realm to do all it does..... So it goes beyond just what you see.


Let me stop here.


We shall have this discussion when we are ready for it. (For only when the cloud feels full does it empty itself on the earth )

Ethnic regionalism like the Swiss or Belgium model, eg urhobo province/region, Igbo, ijaw, Yoruba, kanuri etc. Each will have its parliament and laws . A very weak centre that will be for external aggression, monetary policy and education. With this, the issue of corruption, incompetent leaders will be reduced and development will start.

I know your heart is in the right place , but that state of origin own no fit work , especially for the igbos , I do see northerners claim to come from the place they were born , but an igbo man would never do that , that’s why when am Igbo man dies , he’s taken back to his hometown for burial …. Igbo say “ if you don’t know where you’re coming from , then you won’t know where you’re going to “
