Is Agitation The Only Way Ethnic Groups Can Get Power In Nigeria by aariwa(m): 5:14pm On Oct 12, 2018
I am asking the question due to the events of the past 20 years in Nigeria. When MKO Abiola died in 1998 Youbas led a violent agitation in Lagos and media and they were compensated with an Obasanjo presidency for the alleged injustice.During the tail end of Obasanjo's presidency,Niger delta youths started blowing up pipelines and they were compensated with Jonathan who boko harm insurgency marred most of his presidency and Nigeria compensated the north with buhari to make things right.Buhari's government also witnessed agitation from Nnamdi Kanu 's ipob for secession of ibos from Nigeria. This brought the talks of restructuring to Nigeria's political front burner.Today the biggest opposition party is giving the VP slot to an Ibo man.Is this the right way forward for us as a nation please?
