My question is how did we even agree to be United at first. The damage has already been done Let's just look for ways to bring unity and work together. Cuz even if the east gets Biafra, west gets oduduwa republic and south get Niger Delta. I still see more wars coming because the hate is in every individual. That's when you will hear ebonyi are not real Igbos, an abia man should rule, that oyo is the real yoruba so dey should rule. I just hope it all ends well. South Sudan are not finding it funny 7 Likes 1 Share |

jaeyking:the southern republics will rule themselves peacefully, no worries. I only fear for northern Christians- tivs, idomas, igalas, plateau people, southern kaduna, nupe, gwari, hausa christains, jukuns, gombe Christians, borno and adamawa christains, sokoto christains etc. 8 Likes |

jaeyking: We can't be united as long as the heart of the Fulani man is always focused on domination, oppression, control, overbearing. Nobody can live peacefully with a Fulani man. He is not a man of peace. In fact, he sees peace as a sign of weakness. So, how can one cohabit with such a person? His type of Islam is even like that of an Arab terrorist. He believes he is doing allah a favor when he commits murder! All these wouldn't be happening if Azikiwe had talked about everybody breaking away instead of talking unity. 2 Likes |

One very objective Yoruba man that never saw anything from the prism of ethnicity. Always spoke and sang for all. That is why he was and is still loved by all. Rest on legend. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Buckeyemedia1:me? When i was sounding like a broken bottle in the desert asking u all not to vote this non-permforming man, whose pedigree we knew when he overthrew shargari on 31 Dec, 1983, u guys were shouting sai baba, sai maigaskiya (truth sayer), sai mr anti-corruption. U voted out a performing govt with a PhD holder as President and an architect as VP and voted a man whose highest qualification was a testimonial from his then principal. As if that is not enough, in 2019, u rejected educated banker and educated former customs officer and former vice president, both successful and prudent businessmen and voted back this same man and his yahoo yahoo pastor vp. And now u say im part of the rot? Im part of nothing sir. Thank God it's same market that me and u go to, enjoy the hardship of ur senseless decision. Buhari can rule us forever for all i care. 8 Likes |

Fela insulted Buhari, Babaginda, Obasanjo, MKO Abiola, Christianity, Islam, Manners, Dictatorship, Democracy (Democrazy Demonstration of craze) My point is fela is an entertainer not a philosopher he sings about Nigerias problems but never advises how to solve them, instead he smoked Igbo, wore pants, married lots of women and lived in his kalakuta republic... A great musician but a bad politician. |

Nigeria cannot work because it has become Fulani colony. They don't have any plans to develop Nigeria with the resources from the south. But all they want is to dominate every other ethnicity.... The only way forward is division.... 1 Like |

The man Fela happened to have been one of our greatest minds. I was listening to a mixtape some days back when I heard his voice rang out in frenzy : My people are useless My people are senseless My people are undisciplined ... I was puzzled. I thought it was a remix or something . A simple Google search showed that the song is as old as age and this same Buhari was the subject matter. Fela dey see past, dey see future and dey disturb the present. He lives forever. |

oguns222: I really don't blame your ignorance. History was removed from schools by villains so that people like you won't know their right from left. Awolowo was the one who advocated for a secession clause to be included in the nation's constitution. Azikiwe was the one who opposed it vehemently and reported Awo to Nigeria's overlords as trying to break away. Stop blaming others for your own failures. It's not cool. It's becoming tiresome already. 1 Like |
