The interviewee (at 7:05) is basically saying that he does not belong to the culture he practices and the language he speaks.

It shows the devastating effectiveness of Northern Strategy of DIVIDE and CONQUER.

Most people are unaware that Divide and Rule was the original objective behind creation of States.

Rivers people are the worst victim of Northern tactic of divide and conquer. Rivers people were carved out of Eastern region, given a special identity, made to feel special, and empowered to isolate themselves from Igbos. Then, they became powerless in isolation, and their petroleum resource was easily taken from them, and divided up.

Every development in the North, including Abuja, is largely from the natural resource of Rivers State.

When we were in the University, Northern students received bursaries and other financial support from their State Governments, but students from Rivers State and other parts of Nigeria did not receive grants from their State Government. Meanwhile, the financial support for Northern students came mostly from oil wealth of Rivers State!
