Obasanjo: One, United Nigeria 'Should Not Be At Any Cost' by NewFolm4(m): 5:16am On Jun 10, 2021 |
"I am a strong believer of one Nigeria, but not one Nigeria at any cost, but one Nigeria where every Nigerian can feel proud that he or she has a stake in this country." Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Wednesday said although Nigerians would fare better staying together than breaking up, the nation’s unity should not be at ‘any cost’. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/466801-one-united-nigeria-should-not-be-at-any-cost-obasanjo.html 14 Likes 2 Shares

I disagree with you sir on the issue surrounding already disintegrated Nations that are not doing better, currently, Nigeria happen to be the only country in the world that is being govern with lies from its leaders just like what you posted above, Nigeria is not 1, and we can never be , this is the hard truth we need to say to ourself. And more also, South Sudan is far more better than Nigeria of today. 226 Likes 19 Shares |

The actions and inactions of the leaders are the primary cause of the agitation. If we have a true leader in this country piloting the affairs of the country the agitation will reduce if not stopped completely. 73 Likes 4 Shares |

We are not one but only living together as one. Personally I don't know why Nigerians interprete call for secession as call for war. I disagree with you sir on countries that disintegrated, south Sudan has challenges which was expected as a new nation cos the old Sudan is funding insurrection and they're now getting things right. In the next 20-50 years we will see how far with them Singapore also seceeded from Malaysia and is doing well. Cambodia also seceeded from Vietnam and is not doing badly. Austria and Hungary Czech and Slovakia Panama and Colombia Uruguay and Brazil Eritrea and Ethiopia Any country that can't guarantee the security and welfare of its citizens has no reason to exist. Nigeria is a country with various and diverse interests, while some are interested in advancement in research,science and technology others are more interested in advancement in religion and pleasing God. Personally as somebody from the south East,I want a country that works be it Nigeria, Biafra or even having a foreign country to come and colonise us. Things must work for the citizens to be happy 235 Likes 14 Shares |

Funny man! Every single political problem we have in this country today has your imprints on it. This country would have been better if you were not born... 1966, after the coup, Nzeogwu sent you to Lagos to negotiate with Ironsi, you went there and feathered your own nest, inviting Nzeogwu over for a peace deal with Ironsi. Dude was arrested at the airport on arrival. 1975, you knew how blood thirsty Murtala Mohammed was but still organized a coup with him because those of you in the Army that saw yourselves as "the field commanders" during the war, wanted to take charge from your Ogas! Murtala came in and destroyed the Civil Service with his ubiquitous "fight against corruption", then started the mindless desecration of the country with whimsical state creations done without recourse to either ethnic or cultural affinities amongst constituent units. Nigeria has never recovered from this! You then took over in 1976 and started off by basically eliminating most middle belt officers with trumped up charges! Backdating decrees and summarily executing convicts tried by prejudiced tribunals. That's how the army was handed over to the fulanis. You sealed that off by forcing half baked Shagari on us as the president just to thank the far north for making you president! They will make you a president again in 1999 since you are the only one they can trust with power in the whole of Western Nigeria and again, you handed power back to another fuulani as if they are the only ethnic group in Northern Nigeria! Again, you will resurrect Buhari from the dead and foist him on Nigeria, yet again as the president! That's 3 fulanis you made presidents in one lifetime! You can see how your fulani experiment is working out in paces like Agatu, Iganga and Benin Republic IDP camps! In between all these, you became one of the richest people on earth! Killed thousands in Odi and levelled Zaki Biam! How can such a character be allowed to pontificate on Nigerias problems? 188 Likes 17 Shares |

God bless OBASANJO. And meanwhile The NASS AND OUR 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES should apply SECTION 9 of the DECREE 24 we call the 1999 CONSTITUTION TO SCRAP THE EXCLUSIVE LIST OF THE SO CALLED 1999 CONSTITUTION AND LIMIT FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AUTHORITIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES TO FOREIGN AFFAIRS, MILITARY, ON EQUALITY OF STATES BASIS, AND TREATIES SEALING ONLY. THAT WAY, OUR 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES WILL PRACTISE FULL AUTONOMY OF POLICE RESOURCES AND ELECTIONS SELF CONTROL AND CAN JOINTLY CONTRIBUTE UNIFORMLY TO RUNNING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. GOD BLESS NIGERIA TOO. 3 Likes 5 Shares |

This Obj is the number one problem of Nigeria as he helped enthroned this present catastrophe called Buhari.He knew Buhari was a failure but he reinforced him on a country of 200million people. Hence he is one of the main reasons Nigeria must divide because it's people like him are the source of this country's problem 11 Likes 1 Share |

It is evident that the only agenda of Gen.Muhammadu Buhari as President of Nigeria is to conquer all other ethnic groups by fully Fulanize and Islamize the country. When it comes to stupidity, Buhari can be likened to an unhinged drunkard at the bar regaling patrons with his stupidity. For six years, we have been abused and at the same time amused by the deeply idiotic episodes of Buhari in Nigeria’s most stupid era. 9 Likes 1 Share |

SECESSION IS NOT SUPERIOR TO FULL AUTHORITY TO CONTROL YOURSELF SOCIALLY ECONOMICALLY AND POLITICALLY. ONCE THE 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES HAVE FULL AUTONOMOUS POLICING, RESOURCING AND ELECTIONEERING CONTROL FOR THEMSELVES AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS LIMITED IN HIS VAUNTED PRIDE TO CONTROL ALL, DEMOCRACY IS ASSURED AND EVERY NIGERIA IS FREE TO MOVE FROM ONITSHA TO SOKOTO AND TO PANTEKA AND ZANGO. 1 Like |

They don't want restructuring, yet they're insisting that there must be no talk about secession. People want justice and fairness but you're hell bent on perpetuating lopsidedness and injustice unfairly favouring the North which is Nigeria's least productive and least enlightened region. Nigeria's current Fulani leadership is beyond deluded. He who makes peaceful change impossible, makes violent change inevitable. 17 Likes 1 Share |
