Princewill1: You people just talk loud without thinking. We're talking of Africa, this one is mentioning Singapore and Switzerland. So if you become Oduduwa Republic or Niger Delta Republic tomorrow, you will become the new Singapore, correct? Ok, what do you think prevented Sierra Leone, Gambia, Togo, Cameroun, South Sudan etc from becoming the new Singapore? What do you know that those countries don't know? What resources do you have that they don't have? South Sudan has oil. Sierra Leone is a leading global producer of DIAMONDS, yet look at them. Listen. AFRICA was designated by the western powers over a century ago as a supplier of raw materials to European industry. ALL their policies towards Africa to this day reflect this consensus of theirs. As a small nation, you cannot become a 'Singapore' without the rich world buying your finished goods, much less when they are actively plotting to destabilize you - through for instance, installing compliant dictators, or sponsoring/arming 'rebel' groups against leaders who reject their dictates. They will dictate to you economic policies that will see you remain dependent, so you can continue being a raw materials supplier, as opposed to an industrial giant. And the smaller you are as a nation, the less able you are to override their dictates, without inviting sanctions that will worsen your economy. THEREFORE in the case of AFRICA, BIG is a definite advantage. No question. 1 Like |

I make bold to say that anybody that wants division of Nigeria is either ridiculously ignorant or in the same line of thought with esau that sold his birth right for food instead of thinking about posterity. If you think that by breaking away, you will be better off, look at how your own leaders are treating you and judge. I see Biafra as nothing short of blind greed (oil wealth), the igbos are the most industrious people in Nigeria, commanding Commerce everywhere, yet they want to break away. My advice is start by relocating to the east and use all billions in your accounts to develop the region in preparation, as I hear there are no roads or valuable infrastructure in onitsha despite boasting of numerous billionaires 3 Likes 1 Share |

chukzyblingz: We don't need to teach anybody anything. All we need to do is to abolish impunity. Anyone who attacks another is brought to full justice. Nothing else is needed. Just enforce the laws as they stand now, efficiently, and the violence will end tomorrow. That's all we need to work on achieving, and we're there. It's about building strong institutions. It takes time for developing nations to do this. Our greatest mistake would be to give up when we have achieved so much, such as the enthronement of civilian democracy, and lately, transparent elections - unimaginable just 15 years ago - which shows our growing political maturity. So we just need to stick at it. The USA went through vicious civil wars, massive social unrest, economic depressions, world wars, you name it. They could easily have decided to go their separate ways in the heat of those troubles. Instead they stuck at it, and look at them now. No 1 Superpower on the planet. 1 Like |

Rossikk: Before you call the USA go and study their system of federalism! All states are independent and the choice to secede is open to all and perfectly legal once they meet the necessary international conditions for secession and a referendum is conducted. Each state has its own police force while the Federal police is responsible for crimes across state lines. Each state has its own courts up to the supreme court, controls its own resources and is responsible for its geographical space. Texas with all its oil is not forced to relinquish her resources for the benefit of others!! Obama in Washington doesn't have to bother about 'Federal secondary schools' in any state. There is a reason why capital punishment is legal in some states in the US while abolished in others! That is a proper federation with independent units consciously choosing to stay together and realise the "American Dream" not this slave camp arrangement we have here.Those massive wars and unrest gave birth to the system they have which works today meanwhile despite all the war and deaths in this country, some dolts sit somewhere and say the unity of Nigeria is not negotiable! For what? Do negotiations not lead to balanced and agreeable conditions of existence rather than some fake, forced unity? 9 Likes 3 Shares |

When Obama was visiting West Africa,he left the so called big and better country and went to a small country: Ghana.

Nigeria is a big for nothin cesspit, that should be balkernised for every tribe to answer their name and chart their own course, based on whatever is their prerogative and priority. Eastern region has their priority which is development, education, self reliance etc, while the northern and western region has theirs, which from all indication is ISLAM AND SHARIA.

freeze001: WE ABSOLUTELY DO NOT ''DEPEND ON FOOD AND MEDICAL AID AS WELL AS FOREIGN AID''. GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT MADAM. And it's not really about ''aspiring to be like Luxembourg and Sweden''. Development is not really dependent on a nation's level of aspiration. Technically, all nations aspire to be great, perfect, self-sufficient, peaceful etc etc. But there are a multitude of factors, many of which are outside a nation's control, which influence the amount and pace of progress a nation can make. The smaller the nation, the more vulnerable it is to those factors. 1 Like |

freeze001:Nigeria does not DEPEND on these various schemes. These schemes are available to all countries considered developing nations, ie 80% of the globe. Even India still receives this sort of 'foreign aid'. Heck, Russia receives it. It won't surprise me if China receives some form of foreign aid from international institutions and donors. These are token assistance schemes which only the poorest nations actually 'depend' on. 1 Like |

freeze001: Oh please..... Nigeria's annual GDP is $529 billion. All foreign assistance to Nigeria equals an amount less than $0.3 billion per annum at most. So any Nigerian official going 'cap in hand' to anybody is a crook, whom you should investigate. Truth is, Nigeria would barely notice if all aid was discontinued. But it's there for free, so we take it. |
