I do not know how most people here will take it especially the MODs but it is quite obvious that Ethnicity and Religion can never ever leave this nation.

This was confirmed by the just concluded presidential election. It is safe to say that most of the North voted for Buhari cos of these two reasons(ethnicity and religion), same with most of the South West in the case of Osinbajo and the South South and South East for GEJ.

What is or are the ways forward for this nation to curb these sentiments in our politics?

My opinion is that first of all, the Nigerian constituion must be thoroughly looked into and we must go back to history in this nation and discuss the events that took place before this time.

I will really like some suggestions(without insults and with all sincerity and maturity) to how this nation can be moved forward and everyone carried along. This is beyond APC vs PDP. Thanks. Akereconfi, Barcanista.

@OP I don't think it is okay to discuss this at this time. Let us allow them enjoy in their electoral conquest and form their government. I hope you understand?

This is a bit too early but then you have a point that is worth looking into. Though I doubt there will be marginalization of any region in the new administration but if any we will reignite the fight for equality in all fairness to all tribes and regions.

The same way we demand change from GEJ administration we will do so for Buhari. Nobody is bigger than Nigeria, we will no longer condone complacency and incompetency from any of our political leaders, we elect them to serve us and if they fail to do so we will aligned solely to kick them out.
