1) I believe that after 107 years together, we are more integrated than we realize. Even a bloodless breakup would be very painful and expensive. We have intermarried, own businesses and properties outside where we come from, and each region contributes something important.

2) I believe being the giant of Africa is an economic advantage. Once we get our act together, we could be as influential within Africa as USA, China and India are in their respective regions.

3) I hate violence. The country can't break up without violence. Thanks to oil & gas.

4) An independent north will certainly be taken over by violent religious extremists. Non-muslims in the north will face genocide. Millions of refugees will overwhelm the south. The south will never know peace cos the north will keep trying to take it back by force for the oil.

So this mofo is not concern about those people that are being killed everyday by foolanis, bandits and Boko Haram, he is only concern about businesses scattered around, concern of being the giant of Africa at the expenses of other people's lives while he hides in Abuja or Lagos......
Seun you are a very wicked and greedy soul.....

These are possibilities. We existed differently under different empires and kingdoms. If we break up, there would be teething problems for some time. The northern Nigeria has never been progressing at all. They are practicing wrong Islam or rather Islam the the wrong way. Their elites use religion to deceive and oppress them while they are enjoying.

Dubai, Qatar, Turkey, Saudi, etc where Islam is deep rooted don't have almajiri urchins like we have in Nigeria or invalid and able bodied beggers. Even, if they have, the treated as human beings by respective governments.
The northern elites has used the holy religion of Islam to perpetrate their own evil mindset: greed, tyranny, lust of the flesh i.e. crave for women.

They teach their own people hate. No reasonable southerner would want to be under ignoramuses forever.
If referendum was conducted, the minority groups can align themselves to Igbo or form independent countries like those or formal USSR. The union broke up without any war. In any case, what are we fighting for?
Relax Mr Seun. When we have Oodua Nation, change name of your blog to Globaland or Universaland. Yorubaland would be too small for you. Don't worry yourself about the feared outcome Your blog will thrive the more with wider coverage. We will still continue to be patronising your blog.

Marriage is not by force o.. if North feels they can go after Igboho and Kanu but protect Kyari and repentant Bokoharam boys then my hand no dey.

If they carry out genocide on Christians in North, the United States, UN can step in and put an end to the extremists there. Those ones forming elites there wearing starched babariga would be sent to hell with ease. Let them ask Iran how far.

However, I see points in the things Mr. Se.un highlighted but those he is trying to protect aren't even bothered about their continued existence or how else can we explain people funding and pampering terrorists?

I said this before that a Yoruba man must be a Yoruba man, no matter how educated he is, thinking through their anus, just Negodu wetin someone like Seun dey vomit here, giant of Africa indeed

That's exactly where I fault his reason for supporting one Nigeria. He's making it look like all hell would break loose and we would be living at the mercy of the north if Nigeria breaks up. He's not trying to protect them. He made it sound like he's afraid of them.

Maybe Seun should have considered supporting one Nigeria so the entire Alaigbo is not wiped off. Fulanis would be using you as suya in the absence of beef. Already they're roasting you while you still have military support. What would now happen if Biafraudd comes?
