33 Reasons Why Southern Nigerians Are Fools - And The Northerners Are Not! By Ec by ONYX5(m): 4:08pm On Dec 13, 2014
Sadly,80% of Southerners who see
this article will not read it!
Note:This article was not developed
to ascribe to the entire Northern
Nigeria the selfish antics and
machination of a few individuals who
belong to the region. It would be
unfair to do that. Also, this article was
developed not with the intention of
causing incitement...
1. An average Northerner acquires a
cheap transistor radio-set in order to
gain political awareness
from broadcasting structures such as
BBC (Hausa Service),Radio Nigeria,
etc. This practice has made the
region the most politically-aware
region in Nigeria. On the hand, an
average Southerner,typically, acquires
expensive Smartphones equipped with
FM radio receiving capability.Instead,
they would rather listen to inane
songs like “Your Waist”,
“Skelewu”,“Ginger Your Swagger”,
“NoGede”, etc.
2. Unlike the South, the North
understands the importance of
numbers in politics. This is why, by
all strategic means necessary, the
North ensures that they have alarger
representation at the National
Assembly.
3. Northerners don’t shout, scream,
vent and speak “big grammar” to
prove that they are politically
intelligent on political programmes on
TV and radio. Instead, they shout,
scream, vent, kick, punch, taekwondo,
etc on the floor of the National
Assembly to promote a cause that is
in their favour. The reverse is the
case for the Southerners.
4. Southern graduates/job seekers
consider the public sector
(government institutions) an
unfashionable place for
employment.Meanwhile, the
Northerners massively recruit and
entrench themselves into the public
sector and manipulate themselves up
the ranks. While all these are going
on, their southern brothers and
sisters spend years languishing in the
labour market for the elusive jobs in
blue chip organizations. Yet,
Southerners complain of
marginalizationin the public sector.
5. For some weird reasons, the South
is always frightened when the North
make political pronouncements.Even
weirder - for some inexplicable
reasons, Senators and House of
Representative members from the
South appear to be too timid to
oppose their northern counterparts
during legislative sessions.
6. According to the gospel of the
North - the Northerners were born to
rule. That is, leadership (of Nigeria) is
their exclusive preserve. By extension,
the Southerners were born to be led!
Interestingly, certain actions of some
Southerners support this belief.
7. The North has more (unrated)
billionaires(inDollars) than any region
in Nigeria. For instance, a certain
Alhaji Mai Deribe (an oil well
licensee)would certainly laugh each
time Forbes releases its ratings and
his name is not listed.
8. The North doesn’t produce crude
oil, but the Northern Senators had the
temerity to oppose the 10% host
community funds. The Southern
legislators find nothing wrong in that,
so long as it doesn’t affect their
“constituency allowances”.
9. {Singing}Come and see Nigeria
wonder! (2x)
Statistical absurdity of the grandest
order is stating that Kano is more
populous than Lagos! Dear friends,
even science have proved from
simple demographic distribution
patterns across the globe that
population increases as we move
from the hinterland (desert/Savannah
region) to the coast– but in the case
of Nigeria, the North which lies in the
arid zone, is more populous than the
South – by a deviously doctored
census report. Okay o! We dey look.
10. The North have ruled the country
legally(democratically) and illegally
(military) for 37 out of the 53 years.
The South is very comfortable with
this inequality.
11. The North is the chief proponent
of the“quota system” and “federal
character” principle – a system that
was crafted to sacrifice merit on the
altar of “national oneness”. In simple
terms, even themost unqualified gets
a slot in sensitive national projects.
12. Northern law-makers at the
National Assembly- typically - rally
amongst themselves to promote
legislations that favours their region
(e.g. pedophilic laws). Southern law-
makers typically rally amongst
themselves to promote legislations
that will increase their salaries and
constituency allowances.
13. To the Northerners - the census
exercise is not just a statistical
evaluation exercise. Instead, it is
considered a key political exercise.
Meanwhile, the Southern folks see
census exercise as a temporal job
opportunity for its largely unemployed
undergraduates.In the words of Chief
Festus Odimegwu (recently resigned
Chairman of National Population
Commission) “There has been no
credible census in the country since
1816 because of manipulations”,
Punch Newspaper, 18 October 2013.
14. When it comes to regional unity –
religion,politics and language are the
common uniting factor for the North.
Southerners(especially the South-
Easterners) are never united for any
course. (Oh, well, Soccer sometimes
offers some measure of unity among
the Southerners!).

Continiou Here
15. The North is the region with the
least education, least resources,
least development and pervasive
poverty – yet, they have ruled
Nigeria for 37 years out of the
nation’s 53 years of independence.
16. Only the North understands the
logic behind establishing a national
refinery (the Kaduna refinery)
thousands of kilometers away from
the point of extraction of crude oil.
17. When it concerns the north, a
new standard is always invented.
For else, how does one explain how
Sani Abacha – a near-midget –
escaping the “standard height” rule
of the military. Even, rising to be
president.
18. The North conceived and sold
the “Boko Haram” concept as a
pointer to the fact that the South is
incapable of ruling the country. The
South has wholesomely bought the
idea. “Yes, automatically Boko
Haram will disappear if the north
gets the presidency by 2015. I am
sure”. Excerpt from the interview
granted by Lawal Keita (2nd
Republic Governor of Kaduna State)
to the News magazine (October
2013)
19. An “instant enemy” of the
northern region is any appointed
public officer (especially a female
one) from the south who has the
temerity to oppose their common
cause. Or, one that is standing as a
clog in their continued dominance in
the Oil & Gas/public sector. Some
southerners gleefully and ignorantly
join in the attack on some of these
public officials.
20. Poverty, ignorance, lack of
education,religious bigotry and
fanaticism, etc are some very
powerful tools needed to effectively
manipulate/control people. The
Northern oligarchy is very aware of
this. Hence, their manipulation of
the masses in the north (using these
tools) for their selfish interest.
21. Of all the regions, the North is
the least supportive of resource
control, Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB)
, and the entrenchment of true
federalism. The South finds nothing
suspicious in that.
22. It is unbelievable to believe that
some WISEMEN (in a certain
political party) from the South were
party to a bizarre arrangement for
“power shift” or “power rotation”
between the North and the South –
when, clearly, the south is home to 2
major ethnic groups and - by far -
more ethnic groups than the north.
23. The North offers the most
opposition to the privatization of
public (government) institutions.
Opposition to privatization is
principally to prevent the likely
disengagement of their largely
unqualified members. (BTW, till date,
some people still earn salaries of
close to N1m monthly from the
comatose NITEL. Now guess what
region most of these people are
from? Note:This fact is verifiable.)
24. The South produces the crude
oil (Nigeria’s economic mainstay).
However, amongst the regions, the
North owns majority of the oil
blocks, oil prospecting (OPL) and oil
mining (OML) licenses.
25. Northern leaders (political and
religious)have never come out,
unanimously, to publicly condemn
the menace of Boko Haram.
Southern leaders (political and
religious) that publicly condemn the
methods of Boko Haram attract
criticisms and are described as self-
seeking or seeking attention/
relevance.
26. Political power means just one
thing to the North – control of the
nation’s economic mainstay
(Petroleum resources). Little wonder
they are vehemently opposed to the
implementation of the Petroleum
Industry Bill (PIB)

27. While the north was too busy
attacking some Federal Ministers
from the South for “ineptitude”, they
failed to notice the atrocities of
Northern Ministers who were on a
mission to inflict callous disparity
within the sectors they were meant
to oversee.
Please, kindly check out the bizarre
disparity in cut off points (quota
admission) into the 104 Federal
Government Colleges (FGCs) aka
“Unity Schools”. It was published in
January,2013, by the Federal
Ministry of Education under the
careful supervision of Prof.
Ruqayyah Ahmed Rufa’i - a “once
upon a time” Minister of Education
from the North. Note the disparity
between cut off point for southern
and northern students.

28. Contrary to the general belief -
the biggest unifying factor in Nigeria
is not football , but “Crude Oil”. Now
note this: The very moment crude oil
(in significant commercial quantity)
is discovered in the North, that day
will mark the beginning of the
North’s agitation for a breakaway
from the entity called Nigeria.
29. The Nigerian constitution was
deliberately flawed and crafted to
benefit the North.
30. Strangely, for a nation with
vastly more ethic nationalities
situated in the South, it is rather
suspicious that Nigeria is divided
along just regional lines – The North
and the South. Now, of course,we all
know which region this strange
dichotomy favours.
31. The North is the region with the
least education, least resources,
least development and pervasive
poverty – yet, they claim rulership of
the nation by right (the “Born to
rule” philosophy). In other words,
the north must maintain all the
undeserved advantages handed
them by the British colonial masters
and fortified by the North-controlled
military political class between 1960
and 1999.
32. In the thinking of a typical
Northerner, Arewa Northern Nigeria
(not Nigeria) won the Nigerian civil
war.
33. In defending a northern interest,
if political logic fails, then religious
antics and sentiments are stirred up
by the Northerner leaders.
BONUS
The relocation of the nation’s capital
from Lagos to Abuja was a
deliberate plan of the Northern
oligarchy (using the military) to
situate the nation’s seat of power at
the door-step of the Northerners.
They, cleverly, gave Nigerians and
the world the impression that
everything was irreparably wrong
with Lagos as the capital, and that
to correct the impression, the capital
would need to be situated in the
heart of the northern region of
Nigeria. To fulfill this arrangement -
and give the relocation project an
unbiased outlook - reputable
Southerners (e.g. Late Justice
Akinola Aguda and Tai Solarin) were
recruited into the panel set up by
the northern oligarchy.
WORD ON MARBLE:
“This new Nation called Nigeria
should be an estate of our great
grandfather, Uthman Dan Fodio. We
must RUTHLESSLY prevent a change
of power. We use the minorities in
the north as willing tools, and the
South, as conquered territory and
never allow them to rule over us,
and never allow them to have control
over the future.” Sir Ahmadu Bello,
Sardauna of Sokoto & Premier of
Northern Region: The Parrot
newspaper, October 12, 1960.
Now, who is the real fool here?

OP God bless you for this post.

It's a pity how the southerners have sold their soul and birthright to the North.

They are slaves to the North and when the slavemasters call on them they whimper and nod their heads in agreement.

Now the north has called them again. See them sacrificing their all. Especially from the south-west!

I ask them what of Fashola, why buhari? Painful enough are the so called enlightened youths spearheading the campaign for a man that presided over their fathers.

Anyway one day we would ask our parents questions and we hope they have answers. For now we pray the nation does not burn!

There is nothing called Northerner, Southerner anymore....thats a thing of the past. What we have now is six zones. Each zone as they stand now is the closest to the traditional cultures and customs of the people before the coming of whiteman. There are still some refinements here and there....but the SE today is its own culture, language and rites. Similarly for SS, they do not have to worry about an overbearing culture making attempt to force a language or way of life in contradiction with their own customs.

Therefore, nothing in Southern Nigeria is common.....nothing has ever been! This beahvior you are discussing ahould be narrowed to the zone. I know that in SW Yorubas politics is at community level.....we dont need radio to learn and know what is happening, we get the uodates through the chain of command from the Oba down to the Baales, to the Mogajis, to the Olori Ebis. Our social structure and civilizatiin has a life of its own and it serves us well.

28. Contrary to the general belief -
the biggest unifying factor in Nigeria
is not football , but “Crude Oil”. Now
note this: The very moment crude oil
(in significant commercial quantity)
is discovered in the North, that day
will mark the beginning of the
North’s agitation for a breakaway
from the entity called Nigeria.
29. The Nigerian constitution was
deliberately flawed and crafted to
benefit the North.
30. Strangely, for a nation with
vastly more ethic nationalities
situated in the South, it is rather
suspicious that Nigeria is divided
along just regional lines – The North
and the South. Now, of course,we all
know which region this strange
dichotomy favours.
31. The North is the region with the
least education, least resources,
least development and pervasive
poverty – yet, they claim rulership of
the nation by right (the “Born to
rule” philosophy). In other words,
the north must maintain all the
undeserved advantages handed
them by the British colonial masters
and fortified by the North-controlled
military political class between 1960
and 1999.
32. In the thinking of a typical
Northerner, Arewa Northern Nigeria
(not Nigeria) won the Nigerian civil
war.
33. In defending a northern interest,
if political logic fails, then religious
antics and sentiments are stirred up
by the Northerner leaders.
BONUS
The relocation of the nation’s capital
from Lagos to Abuja was a
deliberate plan of the Northern
oligarchy (using the military) to
situate the nation’s seat of power at
the door-step of the Northerners.
They, cleverly, gave Nigerians and
the world the impression that
everything was irreparably wrong
with Lagos as the capital, and that
to correct the impression, the capital
would need to be situated in the
heart of the northern region of
Nigeria. To fulfill this arrangement -
and give the relocation project an
unbiased outlook - reputable
Southerners (e.g. Late Justice
Akinola Aguda and Tai Solarin) were
recruited into the panel set up by
the northern oligarchy.
WORD ON MARBLE:
“This new Nation called Nigeria
should be an estate of our great
grandfather, Uthman Dan Fodio. We
must RUTHLESSLY prevent a change
of power. We use the minorities in
the north as willing tools, and the
South, as conquered territory and
never allow them to rule over us,
and never allow them to have control
over the future.” Sir Ahmadu Bello,
Sardauna of Sokoto & Premier of
Northern Region: The Parrot
newspaper, October 12, 1960.
Now, who is the real fool here?

If you like, come up with 1million reasons why southerners are fools, we still wont vote for GEJ in 2015. If you can't perform after five years in government, we will vote you out. No amount of tribal sentiment will keep you in office. The same standard will be applied to Buhari and APC. It is politics of performance henceforth. NO MORE TRIBAL AND RELIGION SENTIMENT.
Ok Feb 14 is d date
GEJ. Or GMB we will all see

This latest attempt to save the the Clueless-In-Chief from imminent defeat in the forth-coming election is so laughable!

1. Even if all the points you have raised are entirely true, that does NOT in any way change the fact that GEJ is a CLUELESS and INCOMPETENT leader.

2. You must take Nigerians to be fools, if you think that AT THIS POINT IN TIME you guys can simply, suddenly and conveniently LUMP US ALL into just 'SOUTHERNERS' and 'NORTHERNERS', and expect to get sympathy votes for the CLUELESS from his fellow 'southerners'!

3. Do you think we have forgotten how you guys have been viciously and maliciously SINGLING OUT certain sub-groups of 'southerners' and 'northerners' for your incessant abuse and all sorts of cruel taunting?

4. So the SW people are now your 'SOUTHERN' brothers, and the people of the Middle Belt are now just lumped as 'NORTHERNERS'?

5. Now that the reality of the VOTING POWER of each SUB-REGION has dawned on you, and the imminent electoral defeat of your clueless man is staring you in the face, you have suddenly jettisoned the 'SS/SE/MIDDLE BELT alliance' that you have been taunting the rest of Nigerians with?

6. If you must be told, the 'southerners' who feel GENUINELY disappointed and disillusioned by the WOEFUL FAILURE and GROSS INCOMPETENCE of the GEJ's administration are not unaware of many of the points you raised about the regional imbalances and the need to rectify them, but they believe that is NOT AN EXCUSE to allow a clueless, incompetent and self-centred leader to continue to inflict further damage to the polity!.

This is 100% accurate.

Today we have more agitators from the south promoting and funding a Buhari candidacy merely because he is a northerner and for some vague mythical anti koworption mantra.
