Truth must be told.

We in the south keeps blaming the north for our problems but the truth is that we are the architect of our problems . with this few points

(1)Our traditional institutions is not well centralized or hierarchy in nature as theirs, every king of an autonomous community is a lord of his own so we now have over 1000 kings with over 700 stance on one matter so no common stance. So no political strength.

(2)We are too religioustic : permit me to say that the different churches with so many names have made us enemies among ourselves imagine members of a church here in port Harcourt mocking members of another church that there pastor doesn't have power but just has knowledge thereby causing enemity between both churches or is it the northerners that caused it.

(3)We lack political unity : the moment an Igbo man or ijaw man want to contest you will see many of his brothers contesting against him thereby making him to the northerners if u think am lying the PDP primary of 2003 late Alex Ekwueme was heading for victory until a governor from the south east turned the tide against him.

(4)We like dancing to the northerners tune , just to have there favour, if u think am lying why did Jonathan sack Gen. Azazi and replaced him with Col. Dasuki who later advised that
an election be moved forward so as to enable military defeat bokoharam in a geopolitical zone where elections wouldnt have held and was your opponent 10million votes assured which your opponent got.

(5)The petrol chemical and refineries and Nafcon and a host of others were built on our soil by northerners but when one of our own became president he did nothing.

(6)We do not help each other we like living an independent lifestyle while the northerners live a dependent life style. Check in your community how many rich guys have helped others but a northern general or rich man will empower his people to be rich , Buhari is doing same and your hating him but your brother was there and he only enriched himself.


(7)The north sees itself as one but we see our self differently Yoruba, Igbo and ijaw so who fault is it.


(Our leaders are the worst they don't patronise our people but rather patronise companies owned by the north or where the northerners are major stakeholders. Eg, Innoson motors owned by a nnewi man but it will shock you that the anambra state government will go and buy Toyota products and share to its people, the other time the IMO state governor bought Volkswagen for IMO taxi and also bought Toyota hiace buses instead of innoson buses which are good

(9)We let our wives bring more enemies to us instead of controlling her will empower her , patience Jonathan vs Rotimi Ameachi


So you see we are killing ourselves , we must correct our mistakes first before blaming others

Time to be united with our PVC
Michael for an impact
We say the bitter truth
Say the truth and die instead of lying and still die.

There's a lot of sense in what the OP wrote
