You guys should quit blaming the UK. This amalgamation happened in 1914. Nigerians have had enough time to correct the mistake but have refused to take action.
The Nigeria/Biafra war was an opportunity to correct the mistake but you guys actually resisted breaking the useless union.
Buhari's tribalism and nepotism and the Fulani militants have provided another opportunity. Will you guys seize the opportunity this time or spend your time castigating those that are trying to leave the hell hole?

You skipped some parts of the narration of this history, perhaps you didn't know those parts. So here goes:

• The first opportunity to ensure a peaceful breakup was first bungled by Nnamdi Azikiwe in 1959. The upcoming Nigerian constitution was to be drawn in Britain and in attendance were the stakeholders. Awolowo maintained that a "secession clause" should be included in the constitution. This will ensure that in the event of any group being dissatisfied with the union, it is free to peacefully negotiate her exit from the union. But Nnamdi Azikiwe had to go behind him to tell the British to expunge that clause.

• The second opportunity for maintaining the hitherto regional development and progress that was happening in the union, and maybe a possible secession by any dissatisfied region thru its own laws was again bungled in the 1967 coup by Kaduna Nzeogwu. After the coup, Aguiyi Ironsi was installed the head of state and one of the first things he did was to abolish the regional system of governance, removed the position of the prime minister and created the federating government which Nigeria practices today and which southerners are calling for an end to today. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned and the North staged a counter coup and seeing the lopsided benefit the "federating government" creates in their favour, decided to keep it and fought to hold on to power in order to mainted that lopsidedness which we see today in form of clannishness and nepotism.

• Then came the third opportunity, the Biafra war which you mentioned and which as you rightly put it, Nigerians resisted. But the war wasn't really an opportunity in the strictest sense of it. It is a war that would never have been if the first and second opportunities were present. Matter of factly, the secession should have been a bloodless one as opposed to the bloody war had those two opportunities that were bungled were present.

In between those first and second opportunities were some not too notable occurrences that ensured further division of the south as against the strong unity of the North. Like the pact Nnamdi Azikiwe made his political party have with the north when he went behind Awolowo to meet with the North. This was against the initial agreement between the duo to have a strong southern political party. However Azikiwe had a more "convenient" North-South amalgam.

So there you have it.

Well, we may have another bloodless opportunity soon, apparently created by Buhari's government having contested and failed three different times in a row. I hope the south coalition continues strongly in order to fully exploit that opportunity and seal the chance.

I see

"The Asaba meeting has exposed the extent of the bankruptcy of northern governors who have not, for once, met to take concrete steps to anticipate and checkmate the manoeuvres of the South"


Why do these Muslim Terrorist up north see everything as an inferiority complex battle with the south?


What are these infidels checkmating?

Have they checkmated the Islam that is ravaging them like whirlwind in their desert?

How do you expect this nation to grow when this idiots keep taking the path to retrogression all in bid to "checkmate"

Some time I wonder if the northern leaders advised their fulanis herdsmen to deliberately destroy our crops here down south so that we that we will continue to depend on the north for food supply.
the north have enough land to herd their cow; let them remain there.

Can't you see it yourself

Since 1955 pre independence anytime the south goes left the north goes right (whether that right is hell or not)

They call it checkmating, it would continue to remain so.

North remains the problem of this country

Since south has decided to go forward with the 21st century, they took have decided to go backward to the 12th century

Their destruction of their land with Terrorists, almajiri, etc is delibrate

Sometimes I wonder, how does the average northerner think?

Your open air wandering cow rearing activities is causing serious economic havoc, environmental hazards and criminal invasion on people's lives and you are here talking about how northerners have failed to discipline the south?

There's no hope for Nigeria, needs to break up .

It took us long to know their predetermined plan to destroy our farms to boost their agriculture in order for south to depend on them for food basket through these cattle murderous heard men.

Is this not d reason 90% of Nigerians prefer division? D same north destroy alcoholic product belonging to southerners and issue warning that alcoholic drink shouldn't be sold in their state and everyone kept mute, south is now saying don't feed ur cow in d open, public, instead of complying they are talking nonsense. Troublesome people.

“Disappointingly, the southern governors cowed from hitting the nail directly on the head by not holding the total failure of the All Progressives Congress administration of Muhammadu Buhari and Yemi Osinbajo responsible for the current national woes, rather than singling out a particular ethnic group for attack and irreverent treatment.”

bt dat doesn't change d aspect of the innocent life been claim by this evildoers fulani and their inability to understand dat they're living in anoda manland not their own desert dry land,and their corrupt brainwashing leaders...u think say if na any southwest dey try all dis nonsense unreason killing of fulani#watdoyouthink is gonna happen by now
