In South South Nigeria the Oba of Benin, Olu of Warri are highly revered.

In South West Nigeria, The Oni of Ife, Alaafin of Oyo are almost mystical respected.

So then I ask who is more influential between the Sultan of Sokoto and Emir of Kano and Shehu of Borno historically and otherwise who is more influential in National matters.

Maybe one of them can appeal to Tinubu to make things easier

President Bola Tinubu and the National Assembly are on the path to greatness, IF they successfully restructure Nigeria back to regions, based on the map submitted by Afenifere.

This thread calls for Support for the National Assembly to approve the return to Regions,... but on ONE condition. The ONE condition is that the Eastern side of that map should be reworked to satisfy the SE and the SS zones. Currently, there are grumbles about the Eastern zone in the map which Afenifere has prepared. And quite frankly, I think the grumbles are genuine concerns.

We can NOT afford to build a nation where one side is unhappy. It would never work. No great nation is built by keeping one region dissatisfied. If we want Nigeria to work, to be great, then every indigene must be happy. Hence, the Eastern side of that Afenifere map should be corrected to satisfy the wishes of the Eastern people. Then we can all be happy with the restructuring. And Bola Tinubu would have achieved one great thing in his lifetime.

Corrections to the Regional Map - My Suggestions.

First, there was no reason to divide Cross River state into two, and push one part into the Eastern Middle Belt region. There is no sensible reason for it, and infact it would cause dissent in the SS region, which isn't good for Nigeria. So, the division of Cross Rivers State is unnecessary, evil and not justified. It should be reversed and Cross River state should be left as it is. ... Rather, we should create a Bakassi State, from reclaimed land in the Calabar waters, and use that to compensate the Bakassi people for the great mistake of the past. The Bakassi State should be created from reclaimed land. It would be a small state though, but is necessary to compensate the Bakassi people for the wrong Nigeria did them. If we do this, we would have fixed the Bakassi problem alongside achieveing Regionalism. Perfect.

Secondly, the Anioma side of Delta State should be joined with the South East region. I am surprised this was not done, and quite frankly it is wicked and unacceptable. If Kwara State was joined with the SW, then Asaba should be joined with the SE. Asaba is Igboland, and they are indigenous Igbos; so putting them with their SE brothers is the fair thing to do; same as was done with Kwara yorubas. Fix this to satisfy our Igbo brothers. Nigeria can NOT be great by keeping one region unhappy.

I have highlighted TWO issues that should be fixed in the regional map prepared by Afenifere. (1) Push Asaba and Anioma to join their SE brothers. (2) Reverse the division of Cross Rivers state, and instead create a Bakassi state from reclaimed land in the Calabar Atlantic.

If we successfully fix these two things on the Afenifere regional map, then every region would be happy to accept the Regional Structure. Bakassi people would be happy at last; Biafra agitation would end, Oduduwa Republic would also end. One stone to kill 3 birds. Regionalism, if done right, would fix those fundamental problems. But if we fail to fix those two things, the East would remain dissatisfied, and we cannot build a great nation when a region is displeased. We must be matured to make every indigenous Nigerian feel at home. We are all Nigerians in our country, and no indigene should feel dissatisfied in his native land.

I want to urge President Tinubu and the National Assembly to commit to restructuring Nigeria to regions, only if the TWO issues I mentioned are corrected. If Regional government is the only thing Tinubu achieved, then so be it. He would have done one good thing in his lifetime.

Chikel20000:
U tried and u were very sincere in ur opinion....nice one....but I don't think it will stop d agitation for Biafra.....though it is good n will help ease d pains of d eat but d presidency knows what to do?

babasolution:
Can Nigerians be seen moving carelessly through out bush paths,villages and forest in say Senegal for example without them being queried,searched ,rounded up and possibly deported back to NIG.

Why are Fulani's in the name of being nomadic allowed free movement in Nigeria without question.

Why are the governments of the major tribes particularly allowing all these in their various states.

critique99:
The Hausa enabled all this. Blame the Hausa.

babasolution:
The LAGOS govt for example will rather deport fellow Yoruba people to their states,or Igbo people to their states but will never touch the Hausa illegal occupants in various illegal spots at every corner of the state.

Various openly foreign Nigerien Fulani are seen all over Nigeria, moving about freely untouched.

The freedom allowed the Fulani needs to be scrutinised, there is a conspiracy against indigenous land owners in Nigeria

babasolution:
The Hausa are not complaining, they love their Fulani brothers

SisterAnn:
Op, don't tell me you created a new moniker just to wail over spilled milk. 🙄

alpharoyalty:
You guys keep forgetting that the military, religion, and the government are heavily influenced and dominated by the fulani.
The same fulani and emirs that forced IBB to annul a peaceful and successful June 12 election.
Figure it out

Diego35M:
they are not brainwashed, I think they are afraid of the fulanis

Celestialsword:
It will not end ,it is an agenda,it is spreading

Celestialsword:
But they succeeded in conquering KWARA a Yoruba state,95% of Kwarans are Muslims ditto OSUN state.
.
The South will never tolerate it, they will be stopped

antiMuhamad:
Anything muslim and islam, pure terrorists especially the way it is practiced in Nigeria and the middle east. Like Muhammad, predators, rapists, pedophiles, establishing stupid caliphates for a useless god that Netanyahu is whipping his ass anyhow, a useless god that cannot protect Raisi of Iran and allowed him to die like a common chicken.
Allah knows nothing than to suck blood of his slaves and the unfortunate people they kill for him.
These people brought backwardness to Africa and created a mentality that allows for the exploitation of girls.

critique99:
The bastard Sultan of Sokoto.., your ancestors came from Futa Djallon in present day Guinea, to establish a fake caliphate in Hausa Land.

Yes, your ancestor arrived Hausa land naked, then later abused the hospitality of indigenous northern people, and established a fake caliphate in Hausa land , using Islam as pretext. Instead of them to be satisfied and enjoy their conquest in the North, they arrogantly wanted to extend the conquest down South. They tried and failed in the Middle Belt. And instead of them to stop right there and enjoy their conquest in the North. They refused. They insisted on pushing their conquest down South, by all means. The arrogance of migrant bastards.

A migrant and descendants of a migrant have the audacity to attempt to extend their conquest down South. Till today, they are bogged down in the Middle Belt.

This explains the endless crises in the Middle Belt. From Jos North, Taraba, Zamfara, Southern Kaduna, Benue, Zangon Kataf, Kwara, etc; the descendants of a migrant have continued to kill indigenous Hausa and Middle Belt people. It pains me down to the bones. A migrant, minority population, have continued to foment trouble all over Nigeria.

That migrant is Uthman Dan Fodio, ... and the descendant who secretly continues to drive the conquest agenda is no other than the Sultan of Sokoto. I write this with all sense of decency. You see, the northern people have been blind for way too long. And that enabled the fulani to think they are unstoppable.

Every Nigerian must understand that the so-called Herdsmen crises and killings are nothing but land grabbing and attempted conquest, which is well palnned and well executed. And sadly the Hausa people have been aiding this conquest agenda. That shows you how brainwashed and stupid the Hausa are.. Having sold their birth right and native land to migrant fulani; they want to sell the whole Nigeria.

The fulani claim land for cattle and business; then they come in settle there with their people. In few years, that community becomes an abbatoir. Killings, killings, killings, by the fulani people you allowed in. That is how they operate. Everywhere the fulani has entered, there are killinga and regret. The fulani are ungrateful, vile, and very evil. And this has been happening for 200 years. Yes, for 200 years, the Sultan of Sokoto and his predecessors have been the drivers of the killings that destabilize the North and the Middle Belt.

When Nigerians are ready, they would march to the Caliphate and capture the Sultan. That day would surely come.

Know this and know peace, that Nigeria lost greatly for the failures of the indigenous Hausa people. And the earlier the Hausa realize that the Fulani have no ancestral right or claims in Nigeria, the sooner the Hausa can start exercising their rights over the fulani, who are nothing in Nigeria..

The bastard Sultan thinks he owns Nigeria; thinks Nigeria is his father's estate, thinks the fulani are at home in Nigeria. He is delusional. This is exactly how the fulani has kept the North backward. And they think they could hold out forever. No, it doesn't work like that. Their end clock has started ticking.

babasolution:
The Hausa are not less guilty,they are even worse off than the Fulani, the Hausa fought all the wars for the Fulani, they also fought wars for the British against other tribes.

The Hausa are worse than the Fulani. The Fulani have all they have today in Nigeria because the Hausa gave it to them.

The Hausa are not brainwashed they want things the way it is
