The problem I have with this is that we praying for the northerners to break-up and allow the southern Nigeria to move forward why on earth will Yoruba EFENIFERE reminds the Notherners that have seen reasons to break away that they will regret. Is there anything the South West is not Telling the SE and SS?. Because it seems they are happy with being Nigerians living with their Almajiri brothers. Shame on AFENIFERE for always letting the other southerners down. What are the SW gaining from this union called Nigeria, even when they are massacred in the North they will refute the story and claim it was only the SS and SE that were killed and yet they die slowly with the agony. Why on earth will a$$-licking Afenifere beg them indirectly, how long will they continually be cowards and betrayals
Ok! hear this

Following the threats made by northern leaders yesterday about their readiness to break up, Afenifere Leader, Dr. Reuben Fasoranti, has cautioned the Northern leaders against their threat that the North is not afraid of the breaking of Nigeria.


A leader of the Arewa Elders Forum, Prof. Ango Abdulahi, on Wednesday said the North was prepared to go alone if the nation breaks up, adding that the North would not, however, champion the disintegration of the country.
Fasoranti told our correspondent in an interview in Akure that the news came to him as a shock.

He said, “I strongly appeal to the Northern leaders against such move because it would never be in their interest.

“They obviously don’t know the implication of such action and they should better don’t take a hasty decision they would forever live to regret.
“They would definitely benefit better if they remain in the same federation with the south because their own resources are limited.

“Their natural resources cannot possibly sustain them so they should not take any hasty decison because of the prevailing circumstance.”
The Arewa Consultant Forum, the umbralla body for the North, however, remained evasive regarding the position of Abdullahi, preferring to tacitly endorsing a united Nigeria.

ACF National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Anthony Sani, said on Thursday. “Professor Ango Abdullahi merely echoed what has been said several times that the North is committed to a united Nigeria in diversity not out of fear that the region cannot exist without oil but because of our deep and wide interdependence among constituent parts that make divorce impossible.
“Moreover, the size of the country is a huge advantage not just now but in future when the economy picks up. As result, the North would not be the cause of any contemplated break up.”

Ohanaeze Ndigbo dismissed Abdullahi’s threat, describing his submission as pointless.

The Deputy President General of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Chief Gary Igariwey, said, “We cannot react to such threats. Anybody could come from anywhere to make threats of breakup or secession, so it’s pointless reacting to such.”
He added, “There are so many groups now seeking attention, but there are those we recognise, like the Arewa Consultative Forum.

“Even if it comes from the Arewa Consultative Forum, it must come from the right people in the group, not just anybody.”

Coordinator of the Federation of Middle Belt Peoples, Mr. Manasseh Watyil, distanced the zone from the position of the Northern leaders.
Watyil said, “Who are the Northerness? We better distinguish between the owners of the North. If they want Nigeria to break that mean they are going back to where they came from. That will not affect the Middle Belt; they are free to go.

He added, “It is because of these challenges that the Middle Belt is calling for true federalism or Sovereign National Conference if we will stay together.”
A member of the Ulam council in Plateau State, Mallam Sani Muazu, however lamented the penchant for people or group to claim that they were speaking for the North.

He said there was nothing called one monolithic North, adding that there were no issues that could warrant any breakup of the country. Muazu said what united the country was more than what could divide it.

He said, “Who is the voice of the North? What is the criteria used in determining that voice? Is there one monolithic north? What are the issues at stake that warrants a breakup? Who is agitating for that? To achieve what?”

Why are they begin these guys while every one is asking God to sent them away like Ishmael.

Not untill Ishmael is sent away from this house, Isaac will never be save,

pls Afenifere stop holding hausa/fulani's back.

i don't understand this plans of living together with people
that killed yoruba's in their father land,
igbos in their father land,
berom's in their father land,
deltan's in their father land,
tiv's in their father land,
kaduna ppl in their father land,
etc,

why should Afenifere group advice these guys to stay put.
what do they wish to gain from this venture,
Is there any unaccomplished deal they have with hausa/fulani's?

Yorubas are Silly

Yes a divided Nigeria will not be good for the country and will give West Africa 2 failed states. There will also be wars over what the border will be. The South will have all the oil and will be much richer and the North will be come an Al Qaeda dustbin!! In the end it will leave the region more destabilized.

What is all this Ishmael and Isaac rubbish? Please stop using Jewish terms and history to discuss our national life abeg. Mshewww.

The Yorubas are being truthful here. Even the northerners know they have a lot to loose in the event of a break-up.

Thanks for yor response my gentle man, but you forgot something on the possitive to gain.
1)peaciful co-existence
2)progress and civilization we come to black africa
3)healthy competition will catapult us all to the heights
4)favoratism will be a thing of the past(ie: uni entrance cut off mark)
5)boko boys and their sultan with hausa/fulani murderers will rest and will kill no more
6)the abokis will be useful with their life for once
7)christians will live without fear of hausa/fulani bomb in the name of bokoharam
the south and middlebelt will then be wealthy,rich and prosperous
9)everyone will have fredom of worship and reconverting to whichever without a tag of apostacy which is seath penalty.
10)hausa/fulani's are the only group that make their dominated state a sharian state. they have divided us already, so who cares

those who refuse to learn from history are bound to repeat its mistake.
a food for thought.

let the hausa/fulanis go in peace so that the rest of us will be free.
nobody should stop or discourage them.

you guyz should no dat norther niger can easily penetrate into south-wast niger,when poverty come knocking there door
they are just trying or proctecting future occurance maybe violent wit d north.

Do we want to see rwanda,somalia and sudan before we shall path our ways.

Am afraid.....nigeria is heading towards disintegration with a reasonable short half-life of less than 20 years.

Wetin elders dey see when dem dey siddon small pikin no go see even if e dey on top ladder. If only the let's break up army sabi say wetin dey after 6 pass 7.

Nigerians ronu!!!

See yeye people, Begging North not to go their way, Siiiiiiiiilllllllyyyyy Tribe

Who gives a ratazz about the sources of regrets in case Nigeria disintegrates? Afenifere is a known deceitful and cowardice organization. It can never be taken seriously in the contest of Nigerian polity.

imagine a yoruba group begging hausa clones not to leave, kai, this yoruba group consist of a people dat are worse dan useless...

You no go shut ur trap, wetin d stupid elders dey see if not their enjoyment of perpetual servitude to those disgruntled elements (core north) who brought Nigeria to the sorry state we now found ourselves economically and politically! What an ugly statement from ur big mouth, if you don't have anything meaningful to contribute, shut ur trap! I wonder what is the business of Afenifere if those 'marauders' want to go their separate ways! Nigerians ronu ko, naijababe ronu ni

Iykopee: imagine a yoruba group begging hausa clones not to leave, kai, this yoruba group consist of a people dat are worse dan useless...

Am not surprised by the comments of Afenifere. they have also joined the league of Yoruba sell outs! Am waiting for my Yoruba brothers to deny such comments or i see them as supporting the group.

Wily/Wily:
See yeye people, Begging North not to go their way, Siiiiiiiiilllllllyyyyy Tribe

My major concern is that if the country breaks up, where will all the flat headed self acclaimed jewish spare part dealers move to?

There is definitely going to be high traffic in Ezu river!
