[b] U.S report warns Nigeria to beware of another civil war!!! Written by Olawale Rasheed - Abuja A new report entitled ``Nigeria's Unity in the Balance” authored for the United States Army War College has, again, warned Nigerian leaders to beware of another civil war or an outright break-up following what it called ongoing divisive trends in the country. The report released by the Strategic Studies Institute of War College was written by two former American servicemen, Gerald McLaughlin and Clarence J. Bouchat. McLaughlin is a graduate of the U.S. Army War College while Bouchat is also an adjunct professor at the U.S. Army War College (USAWC) The report, whose foreword was written by the Director, Strategic Studies, Institute and U.S. Army War College Press, Professor Douglas Lovelace, observed that divisive forces were becoming more stronger than uniting forces in Nigeria, warning that unless this was reversed, Nigeria`s existence could be jeopardised. According to the report, “Parochial interests created by religious, cultural, ethnic, economic, regional, and political secessionist tendencies are endemic in Nigeria. Under such stresses, Nigerian unity may fail. “Should Nigeria’s leaders mismanage the political economy and reinforce centrifugal forces in Nigeria, the breaks to create autonomous regions or independent countries would likely occur along its previously identified fault lines,” the report warned. “Having already experienced one brutal civil war, Nigeria is at risk for a recurrence of conflict or dissolution, especially since some of the underpinning motivations of the war remain unresolved,`` the report observed, detailing many fault lines speeding up disintegrative tendencies in the country. “Indeed, East Timor, Eritrea, Croatia, and Somaliland indicate that the weakest point of failing states is along colonial borders. Of more interest for Nigerian unity is that this may also occur between regions separately administered by a common colonial power, as occurred between Malaysia and Singapore, and North and South Sudan, where differences proved irreconcilable after the departure of British administration. At least, some of the resulting regions and states of a possible Nigerian devolution may divide along such internal lines”, the report projected. While conceding that Nigeria’s fate is primarily in the hands of Nigerians, the report noted that such could be positively affected by actions of the US, adding that “Nigeria’s future is in balance and the United States should help tip the scales.” The report particularly warned that religious differences were taking the centre-stage in the emerging conflict situation in the country, disputing repeated reports that economic reasons were to blame for the insurgency and other conflicts in the country. The Strategic Studies Institute (SSI) is part of the U.S. Army War College and is the strategic-level study agent for issues related to national security and military strategy with emphasis on geostrategic analysis.

homerac7: this is very serious!That's it: GEJ Is done. The U.S will look the other way were the Military to carry out a successful coup in a "responsible manner" i.e kick out this thieving mor.on and installing an officer from his Region (Minority, South-South, Niger-Delta, Christian--- or any combination of those enumerations) which will satisfy the polity and dead any arguments of "Marginalization". P.S: to those supporting every evil GeJ commits because of their desire for vendetta based on the stories and/or lies that their parents have fed them; when the sun sets, we'll see who'll wake up in the morning. |

Onlytruth: Are you suffering from personality disorder? You can't have it both ways brother.  Tinubu is a great leader with brilliant leadership qualities, even though, he's a crook but who cares? Am fine with any necessary evil. I'd choose Tinubu over Jonathan anytime, a choice to make between the devil and the deep blue sea. |

The report particularly warned that Very true... Even intra religious discrimination constitute a factor; The other day, I read about how a church leader warned his church members not to marry from another denomination outside theirs... In islam, Once upon a time, two groups of muslims were throwing stones at each other fiercely, simply because they disagreed on time of prayers. TRIBALISM: So ubiquitous, in ministries and parastatals, law makers chambers, compounds, on the buses, in the hospitals. All nooks and crannies. Until we get rid of religious sentiment and tribalism, civil war is imminent. 1 Like |

Better checkup the fact on who makes Lagos boom. I am with you thou on wishing that Nigeria will disintegrate, I can't wait for Nigeria to breakup, although I've got concerns about all the investments my people don make for una land.
