Isreal is made up of jews. And yes indonesia is diverse but the javanese make up 40 percent of indonesia. You cannot compare such country with Nigeria that has 3 majority ethnic groups.
I know that Nigeria will still split. We are all aware that we are not united. It is just a matter of time trust me.
Nigeria's problems are the divisive policies that we have pursued like the concept of "State of Origin". How can an ibo man who was born and raised in Kaduna or Lagos be told that he is not from "there" simply because his ancestry is from someone there. In the U.S. if you lived in a state for at least two years then you are a classified as a resident there. This pathetic state of origin nonsense is why till today the country is still divided not because we are inherently incompatible. Nigerians have more in common than we will like to admit but it's too bad that their emotions of bitterness has blinded them to see this. Mohammed who lives down the street is not my enemy simply because someone who comes from his ethnicity ran the country into the ground. Neither is Ngozi my foe simply because someone from her tribe committed the first coup that has put us in our current predicament. Every person should be held responsible for their actions and not the actions of "his people".

War is very unfortunate, but Biafra's sovereignty is non-negotiable.
Do you know what burning flesh smells like? Have you seen people drinking water from potholes before? Can you imagine soldiers coming to a village after all the men have gone off to war and then gathering all the women and raping them and turning 8 year old girls into sex slaves? Do you know what it means to starve to death or to see people eating human flesh to survive? Have you seen parents abandoning there babies to for by the road side because they can't afford to take care of them?

HealthRe: Ebola: Nigerians Pay Tribute To Stella Adadevoh On Her Third Year Death Anni. by davidif:

If She had not doggedly done what she did and that Liberian man contacts a Fulani/Hausa man in Lagos...We are done in Nigeria!! grin grin grin


BTW...I expected the Nigerian State to confer her with the National honour award.

We can't keep offering National Honour to actors/actresses who have done nothing for the development of the Country. undecided undecided undecided

Man, just the thought of Ebola hitting naija is just flat out scary. Thank God the govt hospitals were on strike so that they were able to take Patrick Sawyer to Mrs. Adedevoh's private clinic and who was able to properly diagnose him with Ebola. If he had ended up in a public hospital, the consequences could have been absolutelt devastating. It could have been like a plague.

YES. ADOLF HITLER AIM WAS TO UNITE THE WHOLE ETHNIC GERMANS INTO ONE. HE WAS FROM AUSTRIA. EVEN THOUGH HE FAILED, IT STILL DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT THAT THESE COUNTRY HAVE FEW ETHNIC DIFFERENCES. THERE ARE ABOUT 4 ETHNIC GROUPS IN GERMANY; AND THE LARGEST OF THEM ALL ARE THE GERMANS WHO CONSTITUTE OVER 95 PERCENT OF THE COUNTRY'S POPULATION. ALSO, THE GERMANS MAKE UP ABOUT 95 PERCENT OF AUSTRIA POPULATION.
YES, THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF ETHNIC GROUPS IN AFRICAN, BUT YET THERE ARE ALSO LARGER ETHNIC GROUPS IN THIS SAME CONTINENT THAT ARE OVER 20 MILLION IN POPULATION AND CAN FORM PROSPEROUS COUNTRIES ON THEIR OWN. FOR SOMEONE TO HAVE PUT YORUBAS, IGBOS AND HAUSA INTO SAME COUNTRY IS PURE MADNESS! THESE ETHNIC GROUPS ARE LARGER THAN MOST EUROPEAN NATIONS.
WHY NOT ALONE THEM FORM THEIR OWN COUNTRIES?
SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG WITH THE BLACK MAN
You can whine and complain about why ibos, hausas and Yoruba are all in the same country but whether you like it or not that is where we are now.
Like I said earlier, Nigeria can make it work just like Malaysia, Indonesia and modern day Israel did. Indonesia has over 300 ethnic groups that include the Javanese, Sundanese, Malays, Madurese and many other. Malaysia is made up of Malay, Indians, Chinese, Eurasians, Orang Asli, Perankans et al. Israel is made up of immigrants from all over the world and indigenous population.
Nigerians have more in common with each other than we like to admit.

Goodness!! You are really frustrated and angry about things. I am guessing things are not going very well for you right now but one thing you are going to have to realize is that one never fights fire with fire. It only leads to more fire that will consume everyone eventually and one day you would have to give account for that.
You have to realize that venting and cursing at people is not going to solve your problems. People who make decisions based on emotions like anger instead of reason and facts tend to regret them later.

There is no strength in diversity. Only fools say so. Why must you guys mention America all the time? America has been able to manage her diversity because it occupied by immigrants. Why no compare Africa with Europe and Asia. That will be fair since these continents are occupied by indigenes.
There is no 100% pure homogenous country in africa and even in the world these days for goodness sakes! That's the reality of things. There is no point fantasizing about some utopia where everyone looks alike because it's not going to happen. This is what Adolph
Hitler attempted to do by getting rid of all news in Germany and slaughtering 6 million of them around Europe.
There is almost a thousand different tribes in africa (see the map below)and it's highly unrealistic for all of them to go on and form there country especially when the ones existing right now can barely sustain themselves.. That's just the reality of things. Africans need to learn to live peacefully side by side with one another and resolve there differences because wars begat more wars.

Few days ago, Davido announced that his associate, Dammykrane, beat his fraud case in the U.S and he is now a free man.


However, it may not yet be Uhuru for him, ifa statement obtained from Tapjets, the company he allegedly defrauded, is anything to go by. ..A statement obtained from Mr. Konstantin, Tapjets’ Head of flight safety and security, reads: “There is a 180-day delay in bringing full charges.

Information from our attorney indicated that his accomplice, Chukwuebuka Ilochonwu, is giving police full cooperation.

This was why they asked for 180 days to bring big charges.

So he is not free. Court record says “no action” it does not say “not guilty.”

TravelRe: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by davidif: 4:51pm On Aug 19, 2017
Ezniteadin:
Have you been to the Murtala Muhammad international Airport lately?

It is the most crowded Airport in my experiences, the prying eyes and busybodies waiting to latch on to your purse forcefully by all gimmicks

They beggarly initiate all method of trickery to collect bribe from travelers

The lack of CCTV surveillance camera is one major reason the attending offices are the more brazen,

they practically beg for money and threaten you if you refuse to grease their corrupt palms

You wonder why Government workers are so bold to Beg for money in an international airport

They search your Bags with bare hands and look for what is not lost, whereas other countries of the world would pass your bags through a search machine to spot items not fit for travel

Nigerian Airport workers practically search your bag in attempts to find anything for which they can collect bribe from you even your underwaer

I am just wondering, Any Nairalander who have experienced this brazen thievery by employed and unemployed loiters at the Airport

The Nigerian government is pretending and acting as if bribe does not happen at the airport Or else, something should have been done to stem this shameful acts of international embarrassment

what is your story at the airport ?
That airport is a mess. It's a classic case of dysfunction.

Right to self determination is recognised by law. International law and UN.

I believe u read my earlier post, so i wont repeat myself again.
Yes the right to self determination is recognized by the U.N. but it is non binding. Big difference.
It will be reckless to.allow some foreign body: majority of whom don't know much about your country or care in the first place to decide the future of your country as if they will be there to fix things when the dam breaks. That my friend would be the height of irresponsibility.

Nigeria is like a lion who is shot by a poisoned arrow and is slowly dieing. Our leaders are using this opportunity to benefit they have zero intention of fixing the country. All they care about is money and power.
Nope!! Nigeria is more like a once thriving company that seats on a lot of wealth but was taking over by bad CEO's and board of directors who restructured it to fit them and not those who have a stake in the company. We are those stakeholders and the board is the political class. Nigeria is just suffering from mismanagement from the board. All it needs is to get rid of the necessary board members and get a new captain at the helm of things and we are back in our way. We dont need to crash the ship with everyone in it simply because the captain and his crew don't know what they are doing.

So you have seen them or have you read about them? Do you know why most of those wars are fought or who is sponsoring who and for what purpose?

Have you followed the wars in Europe and Asia? What about what is happening in Syria or Iraq?

You can remain a slave and enjoy your limited and rigged reality of freedom
Yes i have read about those wars and do follow them and if there is something i have learned is that war turns regular normal human beings into animals and that it brings about great pain and suffering. If you want to know what war in Nigeria would look like, go Google search the war in the Congo and check out the images. I will assure you that the consequences are long lasting.

It isn't just about leadership it is about the ideology and lifestyle of the people that made up the country.


Why did you use Indonesia as an example? I don't know much about Indonesia but I understand that they've as many population and ethnic groups as Nigerians but 95% of their population is native Indonesian.
Some ethnic groups there have only a few hundreds of people. Majority calls the shots.


The most ethically diverse countries are found in Africa and they're awesomely the most backward and undeveloped nations.

Like I said, diversity is overrated, the separate regions in Nigeria made more progress than when the whole country came under a unitary system. Mistrust and distrust in mixed societies like Nigeria hamper growth.

Take out time to read the importance of homogeneity in a nation. It far outweighs the importance of the overrated diversity.
I strongly disagree. America is as diverse as it gets. This is a country that was built by immigrants from different regions of the world and look where they at today. They are pretty much the best at everything they touch from science, sports and culture because they had all this different people from different countries bringing their culture and forming this wonderful art piece called America. I am sorry bro but when it comes to innovation, there are very few things as important as the perspective of an outsider cos they see things that those inside don't usually see and this boosts. That's why over here we say diversity is our strength.

However,should the federal government of Nigeria bring war to us as a result of our God Given right to self determination, then we shall collectively defend ourselves by every means possible and available. but i can assure you that after this whole things, the name Nigeria will be forever obliterated from world map and that is our "ultimate aim" we hate that name with passion, a country that was created by a man and his girlfriend, what a shame!. in NNAMDI KANU's voice, "should the zoo government force us to pickup arms, everything living in it will be destroyed by every means possible and available this is not 1967".

My brother. Nigeria is currently at war, it just depends on the part you're living.


Borno, Maidugri, southern Kaduna, delta, Benue and some other parts of Nigeria are experiencing what people experience in war.
The youths die, their women are being raped and killed, they get slaughtered every now and then nobody says anything.

The only time the government remembers her responsibility is when the oppressed try to raise their heads above the water.

See bro, the prayer some people should be saying is that the war should not reach their side instead of praying for Nigeria to not go to war.
Whether they like it or not, war go reach there side. In fact a war in Nigeria would be so devastating it would suck in the neighboring countries and even the entire region because of how populous Nigeria is. They can't just run and hide in their bubble and hope and pray "that the war should not reach their side" and it will happen. It will touch them in some shape or form, that's the reality of 21st century conflicts.
