Nollywood actor, Gideon Okeke has called for
the abolition of state of origin which he said
will bring national peace.

The actor who alleged that Nigerians are
not willing to let go of the coattails of
tribalism, added that "co mmercials and radio
Jingles are culpable of passing subliminal
messages that are nuanced in ways that
make one wonder if there are 3 Nigerias, 187
others or just 1 Nigeria."

One Nigeria ! One Nigeria !!
But We're not quite willing to let go of
the coattails of TRIBALISM.

Even AD commercials/Radio Jingles are
culpable of passing subliminal
messages that are nuanced in ways
that make one wonder if there are :

- 3 Nigerias or
- 187 Others or
- Just 1 Nigeria.

If You still regard your neighbor with
these derrogatives :

- Omo-Ibo ,
- Yoruba,
- Nyammiri...

You might be RACIST. Or sold to
BIGOTRY.

There's a thing or two to learn from a
small country called RWANDA.

Imagine a policeman stopping you for
routine checks and he pops the
question :

" What State are you from"...
Oga !! What purpose does that
question really serve?

This guy is yet to have sense? Or is he looking for attention?

I'd always advocated for this...

Not now that nigeria is going thru confusing change.

Lol...its like saying abolish nationality for the sake of World peace. Its just that in Nigeria, we have completely mastered the right way to do everything wrong. What we really need is more love and less sentiments/hypocrisy and we'll be alright

So the fulanis living in southern parts of Nigeria should be claiming the state??

I suspect you're Fulani.

Nigeria matter get as e be.

No.

Noooooooooooo next

Too much sense making... Imagine the question from a police man "where are you from" and i am wondering if i am in Paris or abuja... "I am from the Bahamas sir.. i just visited the zoo" Even down to our villages and communities... The black man is the worst racist animal on earth... One Nigerian my foot...

Just like the Igbo, Yoruba, Ibibio, Ogoni, Isoko, etc living in the Northern part of Nigerian would claim the region (Nigeria).

I suspect you're Congolese
