That's not true. Nigeria is hard to govern because we don't have an ideology. In fact, the North and South shouldn't even be in one country because their views about life differ. A people are easier to manage if they share the same ideals. It's easier to criticise if you are on the outside.

However, I think most politicians come to fix the problem. When they see enormous problems they are expected to fix, they become overwhelmed. Jonathan developed grey hair few days in Aso Rock and Buhari said he nearly ran away.

Where's Wole soyinka?? I refused to believe that such a learned man is a tribalist, it beats my imagination

He has refused to comment on the insecurity and mal administration of his tinubu brother...but if na OBI or Obidients matter him hairs go rise

Ozommadu:


Is that so? Is he a bigot then?


Why is he selectively blind to the mal administration of ebola government

thorpido:
He's a tribalist yet he was put in prison for supporting Easterners during the Civil war?

WorldRichest:


He has done his part over the decades. He is now over 80 years, he expects your own biological father too to continue from where he (Soyinka) stopped

The biggest beneficiaries of one Nigeria won't let that happen. To be clear, the biggest beneficiaries are the South West and Islamic North.

In the north, people are mostly agrarians. So, they don't directly benefit from the system. However, the the wealthy among them largely depend on politics and government appointments to get by. That's why they control a significant percentage of Niger Delta oil wells.

For the South West, Nigeria has made Lagos State one of the biggest economies in Africa. Now, the growth of Lagos is spilling over into neighbouring states, which is a win for the South West. When I saw Sunday Igboho calling for Oduduwa Republic, I just told myself that this one knows nothing.

Then, the Niger Delta states are the biggest losers. They feed the entire country and get nothing in return. If the resources of oil producing regions are left for them alone, they will be as rich as Qatar if properly managed. Oil-producing states are the reason Nigeria cannot be restructured because the fear is that they will be more powerful than the centre and that may lead to secession.

As for the South East, what the region has experienced is mostly being cut off from the centre and absence of federal presence. However, the region has also benefited from petrodollars. Although South East states have oil deposit, not as much as SS states. So, technically, the SE benefits from free money. To survive, Igbos are turning to education, sports, business/trades and travels. As for travel for greener pastures, that's why there's hardly anywhere you don't see an Igbo man.

If Nigeria is too difficult to for fix just as they are privatising businesses privatise Nigeria. Give it to an Indian to run. If things do not turn out for good within weeks call me a fool.

Nigeria is one of the easiest countries to fix if there's political will.

Restructuring, true federalism and decentralisation.

It's simple as that but politicians are enjoying present looting, nepotism hiding in/under Abuja.

Clown. Never mention SW from your ignorant mouth again. When the Governors from whatever region you are from can lead by example to take the United and definitive stand for self-rule and regional autonomy all SW Governors did, regardless of Party affiliation, then you can talk.

Problem with most Nigerians, like you, is they love to talk duplicitously and decietfully based on their own opinion rather than what reality on ground, such as is shown below, is telling us about every situation.

In this case, what is reality telling us per the question of who is really ready for self-rule and has championed the drive for it, beyond mere words and rhetorics, in the past decade.

When SW leaders, including many in the APC of Buhari, defied the government of the day, that of PMB, to bravely demand what is shown below, where were your own leaders?

These will not still work.

All we need to fix Nigeria is attitudinal change.

humilitypays:
There is nothing like attitudinal change.


It is government laws, policies and institutions that instill discipline into people all over the world. The Whiteman is as corrupt as the black man but the Whiteman being wise and smart first made sure they built strong government institutions, laws, policies to ensure human greed, selfishness and corruption is managed to the barest minimum through government institutions and working system.



Nigerians have become aware and angry about the failure of successive Nigerian governments and are desiring positive change but what is holding Nigerians down from pursuing this change with one voice and one goal is tribalism (ethnicism) and religious division.


If Nigeria is made up of Yorubas alone for instance, I can guarantee you that they will not allow someone like Bola Tinubu to lead their nation and if by any chance they do allow him, they will rise up together against him demanding for his resignation or immediate amendments.


Same applies if Nigeria was a country that comprise only of Hausas or Fulanis, they wouldn't have condoned Buhari's failure for 8 good years, they would have revolted against him in oneness without division.


It is citizens that hold leaders accountable but due to tribalism and religious division, Nigerian leaders cannot be held accountable by Nigerian citizens who are mostly divided along tribal and religious lines.



So dividing Nigeria into smaller countries comprising of people of same tribe/religion will reduce the leadership failures because people will be united in revolting against bad leaders without having tribal or religious coloration.


If Nigeria is a country of one tribe, believe me, APC can never return to power.


Don't mention States that what about states, Nigerian states have no power, Presidency controls everything in Nigeria

membranus:


Who is stopping you from going?

But there is a constitutional way of doing it, so follow that route.

But there is an unconstitutional route to that too, which your Nnamdi Kanu's IPOB and ESN is treading, but be prepared to shed many blood, including your own. And considering the half-hearted way they are executing their struggle, the end result is unnecessary waste of lives and utmost failure.
