I believe one day our country will be like that

I'm looking forward to when a Yoruba man could be governor of delta state  and a southerner governor of a northern state.

in the United States before it became a perfect union, people thought of themselves of being citizens of their respective states not as being citizens of the USA. It was till the constitution was passed that people finally identified with the country as being theirs and theirs alone.

I believe one day our country will be like that

This is simply a genuine hatred for Nigeria.

I think we should start from easier things that are achievable

we have to start by rejecting the Notion that it is in the interest of Nigeria for tribes and ethnic groups to unite  along ethnic lines for electoral purposes

immagine if all whites in America united to present a white candiate, all blacks unite to present a black candidate, and all Latinos do the same

the quality of political debate and by extension leadership  in America would have been as undermined as we have it in Nigeria

we need to first promote politics based on ideologies and encourage individuals to vote based on what serves the country and their individual pocket better rather than voting along ethnic and religous lines

when we do that may be we might begin to get closer to politics of COUNTRY FIRST
