Well, the north asked them to goan form biafra, but they chickened out. Maybe they aren't as bold as you think

ExInferis:
The heading should be " Middlebelt and northern CHRISTIANS are having a pipe dream".

This meddlesome jerry gana sef. Why won't some debilitating ailment strike the busybody?

Terkimbi01:
Great move, but we need something more drastic.
we should state clearly that if restructuring is not allowed, we should be left alone to handle our affairs.

I like the South South and the South East, they are bold.

Two men I admire are Nnamdi Kanu and late Gideon Orkar.

Speak for Hausas alone and don't interfere into middlebelt issues.
I am from the middlebelt and i am for restructuring of Nigeria. This continous system cannot work anymore. It only serves for advantage to northern elites while northern masses continue to be ravaged by increasing poverty n illiteracy.

**** You hausas want to keep on dragging others in Nigeria backward, but enough of that.

Mujtahida:

Go knock your head on the wall. We are Nigerians from middlebelt not North Central. Look at the disparaging way you talk down on the people within that region by tagging it middle belt nonsense.

You are obviously ignorant that J S Tarka a Tiv man was an early advocate for the middle belt with the formation of the United Middle belt Congress with people like Solomon Lar in the party even before Independence. Away with the fraud called North Central. I repeat we are from the middlebelt. Mind you I said 'We' not 'I'

adetayo234:


Your noise was clear then. You were saying "give us biafra or we die". Why are you changing your tune now?

Nowenuse:


You are very correct. I am from the middlebelt. The south and the middlebelt needs to unite. Enough of illiterate Hausa-fulanis dominating Nigeria.

Why should illiterates and people who refused to go to school be ruling educated people?

coptic:


Wow. I never knew you are a middle-beltan as well. I've always thought you to be from the SE.

That guy lives off making disparaging/condescending remarks about other people.

He lacks the intellect to talk intelligibly. He's such a very arrogant fellow!

adetayo234:


I'm sorry to disagree with you about a united south. I don't see an igbo/yoruba agreement anywhere in the future.

mrvitalis:

They both agree we need to weaken the power of the Hausa Fulani

Mujtahida:

The whole of your post is indicative of the foulness ravaging Nigeria. Everybody is infected with the virus of ethnic and religious bigotry.

If I were like you now I will remind you of someone who is battling with serious wasting disease but it's not necessary because that is not something to wish on anybody or to gloat about.

codedguy1:


It will. It is worth trying. I even think we can fight corruption better with regionalism.

If a certain jagaban is stealing the money of the SW, it will a matter of time before they get rid f him and when they are at it using any method it will not really affect other regions unlike now when people blow up pipelines it affects everyone.

With regionalism most regions will strive to be self sufficient and trade or relate with other regions like 2countries having bilateral agreements only this time we can remove a lot of the protocols because we are actually in the same country.

We actually need each other more than we realise, that's why I don't support secession, but people should have that option if they want.

cjrane:


Believe me if Nigeria is restructured, nobody will want to leave. Nigerians know how to live together if everyone can rule their own region and have a right to develop themselves without somebody in Abuja posing an obstacle to any development in parts of Nigeria because they are 5%.

The trouble makers know this, that is why they are kicking against restructuring.

They want the country to violently break up so they can claim whatever they call Igbo investment in the north. What they have failed to factor into their calculations is that if Yoruba does not fight with them and if part of the middle belt also decide not to fight Igbos, then they will be in severe trouble fighting Biafrans alone. It will not take Biafra up to six months to destroy them completely. Then, all those thing they thought about doing will be reversed by Biafrans.

Mujtahida:

Actually I'd prefer to be regarded as a Nigerian but if not for the madness that has affected and twisted our national consciousness there's nothing wrong in identifying as Northerners, Easterners etc. Other countries do it and it adds beauty and variety to national identity and consciousness.
Don't mind the bigot.

coptic:


Thank you.

I have always thought myself a Nigerian too. A nationalist to the core. Still am, but that shouldn't come at the expense of the lives and properties of our people.

myright:
we have four geographical cardinal points, North, south, east, west. Forget that rubbish creations of the northern cabals. There is nothing like SS... If i may ask you, who introduced the rubbish south south? Was is not a northerner. All your divide and rule tactics as been rubbished by radio biafra. The people of the east are wiser.

Question 2:
Why do you refer to all ethnic groups in the north as Arewa?

Mujtahida:

Don't mind them. When it is politically expedient they hug us and tag us Northerners but when it comes to issues of development, manning sensitive positions they ditch us. This is 2017, not 1960

Mujtahida:

Don't mind that guy. He's one of the few very narrow minded yoruba guys here. He sings only one boring song:divide, divide, divide.

Mujtahida:

That's the way to go. If not for anything at least we are unified by our racial identity as the black race.

EazyMoh:

There is nothing wrong identifying as middle belt people, to me the terms middlebelt and north-central are all the same.Where the danger os is trying to give it a religious coloration by calling it middlebelt and other minority tribes/Christians.
Once you give your campaign that coloration two gigantic problems arise.
1. The middle belters who are Muslims will never be loyal to your cause once you disparage Hausa-Fulani at every slight opportunity and try to align with people from Southern Borno and Gombe just because they are Muslims. At the end the middle belt will be divided. and we all know what happens against a divided house.
2. You will generate bad blood from the rest of the north as well and you will be between the south and the north with no ally to turn to. Weigh your options and consider what's best for you.
You people can decide to revive help the Arewanism from the time of Sardauna where every northerner regardless of tribe or religion is treated equal. Burn that alliance completely and try to align with the south (may be join Biafra) or stay independent in the middle.
Nigeria shall be balkanized, let everyone go!
Enough blackmailing the north.

Nowenuse:
I quiet concur with ur submission, this hausas/fulanis when it comes to anything that will benefit the region they limit it to Hausa Fulani states. Middlebelt is not North. We are Middle Belt and if Nigeria is breaking up we stand alone

You are very correct. I am from the middlebelt. The south and the middlebelt needs to unite. Enough of illiterate Hausa-fulanis dominating Nigeria.

Why should illiterates and people who refused to go to school be ruling educated people?
