Is It Bad To Be Regional? by PaulJohn1: 2:21am On Oct 26, 2012 |
I have followed the argument of those canvassing that President Jonathan should contest for the presidency in 2015 and some other groups who are making a case for their own persons or areas to take a shot at the highest office in Nigeria. Most of those for and against are actually repeating the same mistake of reducing the institution and office of president to a narrow regional representation.http://allafrica.com/stories/201210250216.html |

From where I qouted the write up, the topic says: "It Is Bad To Be Regional" But I had to edit and put it in form of a question because I disagree with that heading. How can someone just conclude it's bad to be regional?! |

It's not a crime for Awo been regional. He was the head of the old Western region then, definitely he has to show his pledge and concern for his people. I think those who think it's bad to be regional should have that thought that a regional man had to regional since it was his assignment before hoping for the head of state, which he'll transfer to patriotism if higher assignment(of head of state) is given to him. |

Nigeria was designed to be run down, a nationalist or regionalist cant save the nation. Collective effort of nigerians by defining our objective and means of achieving it would save us. my thought. |

^^ You're correct. We all know how much regionalism can save the nation, but the write-up is against been regional in person and not the practice of regionalism itself. |
