Nationality, Culture And Religion! Which Comes First? by CandidAdmin(op): 2:18pm On Dec 18, 2023
Nationality, Culture or Religion, which comes first?
In what order are they arranged?

When you were born...
Are you first a Nigerian and then a Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa and then a christian/muslim/traditional worshipper?

What do you think the right order is?

What is your definition of Nationality?

Nigeria for example is a country and not a nation. The Igbo ethnic group for example is a distinct nation in Nigeria.

So, if your definition of Nationality is the Country, then this is my order:

Culture
Nationality










Religion.

Humanity comes first and then family and tribe comes second. Nationality ordinarily means TRIBE.
So Nigeria is a country of many nations and deferent tongues unlike Europeans Arabs Chinese and Indians. Nigeria is a mixture of many nations

Alright but why is culture first if I may ask

Your tribe doesn't legally give you any advantage in Nigeria.

That order is meant for Southerners

The Northern Muslims ☪️ don't believe in Nigeria as a country but a conquered territory by Othman Danfodio for their exclusive pillaging and looting till everyone becomes a slave or Muslims.

They don't care if this would take 700yrs to achieve but one step at a time.....till Islam owns Nigeria totally
Islam Islam Islamic Republic...Northern Muslims
Nationality culture religion...Southerners and the rest of Middle belt Christians ✝️ and Animists

It is not about advantage but about who I am. I’m first a Yoruba man before identifying as a Nigerian. Nigeria can stop existing today and I will stop being a Nigerian. However, I can’t ever stop being a Yoruba man till death. That’s who I am. Religion is not a factor for me in anything. I’m okay with being a Yoruba man and a Nigerian in that order.
