because the British didn't want a Nigeria without a good and trusted slave to run it,so the British officials to zik and awolowo that there are three regions and they three must be complete before Independence will be granted,it was a trap,zik and awolowo met the sardauna,the sardauna gave them conditions,his condition being that the north must have 50 percent majority in the house before he can agree for Independence,they agreed because they felt it's better to be with fellow Africans than with the apartheid British.
But the north chose to serve British interests in return for British backing for their continuous stay in power.

Lugard should have joined the northern Nigeria with the Niger people. The southern part of Nigeria has nothing in common with them.

Xbee007:
"The militants, largely drawn from the Fulani herding community, have targeted civilians in retaliation for killings of Fulanis by self-defence militias formed by the farmers."

This is an ethnic cleansing agenda. It is what they have been doing in Nigeria too.

HeadShot:


What does Boko Haram and bandits want in Nigeria?

engrchykae:
stop blaming lugard, ojukwu tried to correct it but awolowo and gowon said go on with one Nigeria
Stop being irresponsible
Now kanu is trying to correct the mistake but useless people are fighting him, tomorrow they will still blame lugard

137 unfortunate victims of Nigerian political games.

I don’t know how, but there’s no way you’ll tell me that some politicians aren’t cashing out from this attacks and killings in Nigeria.

fulanis expansionism,you remember that when buhari became president,the first president he visited was the president of niger republic,a fellow fulani,they discussed about fulanis expansionism but it is off records

Na now Mr. President go act.

Boko don buy market.

the terrorists are not boko, but fulani herdsmen. read d story

A security source blamed Sunday's attacks, which were carried out by men on motorbikes in the remote Tahoua region near the border with Mali, on the local Islamic State affiliate. Islamic State has claimed responsibility for previous raids against security forces and French aid workers.

The rising death toll appears to be the result of the Islamists inserting themselves into ethnic conflicts between rival farming and herding communities, said Harouna Abarchi, a civil society activist who leads peace initiatives in the area.

OyinO:
Sad and very unfortunate but they should enjoy their Islamic fundamentalism. Muslims love to run, escape and go to areas where people don't practise Islam because those places are relatively peaceful, only to start to enact mosques and begin to propagate Islamic fundamentalism that shattered their previous settlements. Same thing with the Christians - they are not better than the Muslims.

grandstar:
The Niger conflict is largely ethnic in nature caused the Fulani herdsmen who feed their cows from the farmers crop. Nigeria comes to mind.

The war seems more easily to fix. Money should be showered on creating cattle farms for the Fulani.

naptu2:


You are right, but Boko Haram and ISWAP have inserted themselves into this conflict (which was previously easy to fix) and the Boko Haram and ISWAP angle is not that easy to take care of.

Ofcourse you're saying the truth, and Buhari over the years has proven this to be true. That's more reason Lord Lugard will continue to suffer severely in hell for merging the south with north when it was clear that the south had nothing in common with quota system people.
