Why singing war all over. No war will happen anywhere because of rivers political crises. A few head may roll no doubt after now and politicians will later settle themselves.

Anybody with sense will knw that ds is one of d most sensible and patrotic decision any reasonable house can take. If not, we will see d repeat of Governor's forum or during Obj time that governors are being impeached inside the hotel or borrowing of mace 4rm another state to impeach a governor.

actually, a similar incident happened in the 60s, in the then western region.

war followed a year or so later.

remember one of the reasons given for the first coup back then was the state of instability in the west.

a mace was also broken in like manner in one of the politically active western states.

Spot on but this 'll favour Amaechi because there won't be anything like impeachment or threat from the anti-legislators for now.
