My Case For Nigeria To Split Along Ethnic Lines. by bolaino(m): 6:45pm On Dec 03, 2016
My Reasons are as follows. The system that is supposed to be the driver of the Nigerian Ship is not functioning. Nay. It is dead. Where in the country called Nigeria can one find Justice? Is it in the Churches? The Courts? Or The Traditional Rulers. Nowhere. Why Because we are still living as slaves even in this 21st century. In our own lands. We are starving to eat food is a problem. People are dying like flies. Some people are working to build the country. While others are working to suffer and to punish those working for the good of the country. Why. Because of Money. police has no shame again. They even tell you Thank you after you give them 50 naira. As if it is Religious offering. This is shameful. Whether you are rich or poor and you are a Nigerian. You should be very ashamed of yourself. Because your Identity is causing the world problem everywhere.

@Op, splitting along ethnic line wouldn't do much to ameliorate the suffering of their citizens, rather it will be a continuous system of the present contraception.

I think it time for us to realize that Nigeria problem is really not central government rather our respective state governor at the regional level. If the various state governors are serious, true federalism also known as fiscal federal shouldn't be a herculean task in these age and time. But because the state governor and our representatives in the National Assembly are either Clueless or terrible selfish, which makes them non challant towards the development of our respective State.

Therefore if we should split has you suggest, it is the same people ruling us now that will still be our respective political leaders due to the fact that they control the Substructure of the society which they got through brazen looting of our common wealth.

The least we can do has citizens is to stop supporting them or beating war drum whenever karma is about to catch up with any of them. Rather we should channel our energy towards good governance irrespective of whether you are Afonja , Igbo or Aboki.

My humble submission

It is not whether one ethnic group is corrupt or not but to create enabling conditions for each ethnic group to handle corruptible practices in its manner without being accused of tribalism.

Are you very childish? When an attempt was made in 1966 to clean up government of corruption, the action was quickly turned into tribal weapon.

Seems you are the childish one. You can't answer a question without ridiculing me?

It will be a planned separation, that returns all ethnic groups to their traditional order and governments, done gradually over time would work. It would be safer and peaceful this way. But to persist on without this change and fighting against it there would be an implosion. When an idea or concept has out lived its time it goes away in a sudden crash. Violent, messy, bloody, all Ogun. The choice is yours, as always. Love, Baba Ejiogbe.

Ase.

You should re-establish the trade that your ancestors had with each other so as to promote peace and prosperity. The South had farming and trade arts and the North had animals and warriors.

Thank you for this intelligent question, what i believe constitutes Ethnic lines as regards to my post is a demarcation of boundaries with borders walls etc that will serve as a form of baricade but with manned and highly monitored and guarded point of entry and exit with the use of recognized forms of identification by any individual looking to gain entry into Ethnic territories.
