Lol.

It's just, it gets to a point where you have it up to here. I've always been critical of the northern leaders. But they seem to say all the wrong things more often lately.

I've always had the conviction that the human soul is essentially one, bar some physical differences.

But then, those nonentities mean nobody well. They have their people languishing in poverty and ignorance while they themselves go about disturbing our space, destroying everything that was built.

You need to converse with some of them personally to get my drift. There's not enough space here to contain their nonsense! That boastful attitude is the hallmark of the crude.

I've always been of the opinion that we are ruled by idiots!
Is this a factual estimation or a personal estimation?

Is being too protective ( of one's own religion, tribe & culture ) a socio-political excesses?

Emotion does not shape my perspective, bro.

Do not mistake high handedness for overprotectiveness.

What religion? What culture?

Their interests are of a material nature. Not more, not less.

While that isn't all bad, they go about it the wrong we.

We could discuss this further some other time. I can't say more than this at this time.

They can decide to form a collabo but that should come after all the states has their autonomy. Kano and Kaduna can partner no problem. All these almajiris in the north will automatically become useful, competition everywhere because no work no food. The end part is developments of the country.

you osu cannot just do without showing your innate hatred. Yoruba has been clamoring for regionalism before your fathers were born. in fact it was a greedy ibo man that formed this sham we are now.
and why do you want Biafra? is it not to annex the south south oil?

DEGr8t:
The Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) has condemned in strong terms the recent back out on regionalisation of Nigeria, by some northern elders, as generally agreed at the 2014 National Conference organised by the last administration.

Rising from an emergency meeting on Sunday, OPC described the pronouncement of the northern elders an affront to the collective psyche of the generality of the masses, accusing Northern elites of acting like they own Nigeria.

The group posited that regionalism was the minimum option for a united Nigeria, failure which the country would be heading towards the path of disintegration.

The northern elders’ declaration came days after the British and the French envoys to Nigeria canvassed a one indivisible Nigeria, even at a time when self-determinism is gaining ground across the world, including Britain.

In a statment signed by the National Coordinator of Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) Otunba Gani Adams, and made available to DAILY POST, the group condemned the pronouncement of the Arewa elders, saying it was a call for anarchy in a country in dire need for actions.

According to Adams, the declaration of the northern elders is mere figment of their own imagination that cannot represent the stance of the majority of northerners, nay the generality of the citizens of the country, particularly at this point of palpable lop-sidedness and leadership inequalities.

“We view the recent back out of some northern elders on the resolution for regionalisation of the country as panacea for a stronger Nigeria as a gross display of irresponsibility, reckless approach to sensitive matter bothering on national security cum unity and an affront on the collective psyche of Nigerians.

“The agreement to the regionalisation of the country after failed attempts to unite the country in the past was a collective one at a rare seating where every ethnic nationalities that make up the country had the rare chance to sit together to discuss the future of the country.

“To now make a detour at this time that the country is almost approaching a brick wall on the path of national cohesion is simply unpatriotic.

“We are not unaware of the desperate moves going on underground by a cabal that have all the while constituted the tail wagging the dog of unity in Nigeria, that are so comfortable with the lingering lopsided presidential system that is deliberately skewed to favour indolence and evil manipulations that allows a few to benefit at the expense of others.

“Let it be known to those supporting the continuation of the current locust regime that the only alternative to regionalisation of Nigeria is self-determination.

“Nigeria started with a system that allowed each region to develop at its own space and the Yoruba benefitted a lot from the system which promoted hard work and rapid development across the country.

“We built our nation to be the pride of the world under that system and as such tip it as the minimum condition for our unity in diversity, as a country.

“Let the message be sounded in the ears of those scheming to promote laziness and stampede the entire populace in their desperate bid to continue to hold the country back on the path of development and accelerated pace in the march towards global advancements, that they will not succeed,” Adams concluded.

Don't mind them. God is doing fine for His appointment of Buhari/Osinbajo in The Presidency. God is The Instruction, Direction and Discernment. The Lord watches over The Ways of The Righteous but The ways of the wicked shall perish.

Irony is when you look down upon Arewa, you call them backward illiterates and what not, yet you can't do anything to actualize your objectives.
All this cry of restructuring or break up by the south is mere blackmail. They are not serious about it.
By the way Arewa never wanted this your one Nigeria in the first place! Awo and Zik did all they could to convince the north to be part of you guys.

Get your facts right, Awo never agreed to one Nigeria.
