Nigeria Will Work Better If Divided by Omoawoke(op): 8:31pm On Jul 10, 2024
Look at those European countries, they work better because each to its own.
Denmark, Finland, Spain, Italy, Austria, France etc... The same people with same identity and language gather to form even smaller individual countries with fewrer populations.

West African countries were established to fulfill only one aim which is colonization, to divide and conquer.
Imagine a yoruba nation standing alone, igbo nation standing alone and Hausa nation standing alone.. We will work better individually and even as a team.

If you keep brothers in one house fighting and competing for the same resources, there won't be peace in that house and progress may be slow. But let each have their separate properties, they will work better and meet time to time in the family house for family meetings. They will have each others back better and work towards progress.

I hope someday Nigeria can divide! it will be for the greater good.

This is the obvious truth. All those Sabi people on sports section praising Euro teams see how they are all tribal nations with good light and roads and government… They all want to JAPA to those places- even SUper Eagles dey Japa to there..

But Black people in AFrica are foolish and greedy and jealous of each other…. They also use the name “Nigeria” to steal public funds, and to bone gehs that have no choice but to come to Lagos with their families to hustle…

Too Bad

Of course not!

But trust me, all these quarrel will stop and there will be better progress and even unity.
The political madness with end, people will elect better leaders. No more dumb power rotations and using religion and tribe to win elections will reduce
There will be boundaries and more mutual respect

If properly restructured. Nigeria can be a really successful country. We do have some knuckleheads like boko haram, Ip.ob.s etc but that is not enough to give up on Nigeria.

You call an ethnic nation like igbos bigger than most European ethnic nations outside Germans , the most educated tribe in Nigeria probably Africa knock heads yet wants Nigeria to be one

The simple question is this

If tinubu was ruling only yorubas... What do you think would happen

Do you think Buhari would have completed 8 years if he ruled onli North?

U think Hope of IMO would be governor?
Mba of Enugu ?

Let's all be realistic one Nigeria would never work

Nigeria can't truly divide in the real sense of the word "divide" if certain groups aren't willing to return to their ancestral lands.

Re: Nigeria Will Work Better If Divided by Tellmeastory:
Very foolish, stupid, and ignorant thread.

It was your 'DIVISION' that allowed the Europeans to enslave and colonise you in the first place.

Now you want to revert to the same old ethnic isolation and sovereignty.

One guy said the ''3 tribes'' will do better if operating independently each on their own.

What about the other 300+ ''tribes'', or your mumu heads think only Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba exist in Nigeria?

When each ''tribe'' goes its own way, we will have 300 FUC.KING COUNTRIES where previously we had ONE.

An absolute recipe for CHAOS.

And if you say those 300 ethnic groups should join up with one or the other of the ''big 3'', we will simply have 3 new NIGERIAS, with one majority group lording it over the others.

Meaning Back to Square One.

SO QUIT WASTING YOUR TIME BY THINKING YOU CAN RUN AWAY FROM YOUR PROBLEMS BY ''DIVIDING NIGERIA''.

It will not happen. You MUST learn to live with one another in a large, multi-ethnic country.

The Mali Empire was around 6 times the size of Nigeria, and was multi-ethnic and multilingual.

And was very prosperous and successful for many centuries.

So multi-ethnic societies are not alien to Africa.

So forget about ''dividing Nigeria'', and go and hustle and make money like your mates and stop disturbing people.

The idea itself is so stupid at this point.

The country has invested billions of dollars in building Abuja, for instance.

With money/resources that came from other parts of the country.

So if Nigeria 'divides', who takes Abuja?

Your father?

Are you prepared to be DEPORTED from Abuja, Lagos, Kaduna, Kano, Jos etc?

Because if Nigeria 'divides', you will be stuck to YOUR neck of the woods.

You will not be allowed to settle in your millions outside your homeland, as is the case presently.

Are you prepared to become a FOREIGNER in Lagos?

A FOREIGNER in Abuja?

That any policeman can slap and detain, and demand your residency papers or visa?

Stupid, thoughtless idiots.

Sometimes I wonder what the fuc.k I'm doing on this forum.

I am happy you have come to this understanding; something we have been saying for ages.

Look at those European countries,
less than 5 million people with per capital income of over $20,000/person so who does being the biggest population help?

How big is Sierra loene, Benin Republic, Togo, Liberia etc?

We have spent 64yrs for something that has not worked, lets abandon this sinking ship to our life boats

Imagine a yoruba nation standing alone, igbo nation standing alone and Hausa nation standing alone.. We will work better individually and even as a team.

If you keep brothers in one house fighting and competing for the same resources, there won't be peace in that house and progress may be slow. But let each have their separate properties, they will work better and meet time to time in the family house for family meetings. They will have each others back better and work towards progress.

I hope someday Nigeria can divide! it will be for the greater good.
Re: Nigeria Will Work Better If Divided by DMerciful(m): 2:11am On Jul 11, 2024
Restructuring is like kicking the can down the road. Lets bite the bullet once and for all.

Separate to 5 countries. Arewa Republic,Biafra Republic, Middle Belt Republic, Odua Republic,
Lower Niger Republic. We can have a commonwealth of natiins for cooperation but 100% different countries

Re: Nigeria Will Work Better If Divided by DMerciful(m): 2:16am On Jul 11, 2024
Nope! People of similar aspirations can be in same country. The core North does not want western education or drink beer so they are better off on their own with sharia and Islamic state.

Igbos gets Biafra, South South gets Lower Niger Republic and so on

Don't put barrier. Divide first and there'd be like 5yrs transition which is enough time to move to our various origin. Brexit happened without people moving first.

There has to be conviction that it will be done and the best way is to do it already

Relax, jf we divide, in 30yrs, you'll have Abuja and Lagos allover.

You know this is not working but lack of courage is not allowing you to try something else.

Nigeria isn't the most diverse nation on earth so the question should be why is Nigeria not working when more diverse countries are working?
its simply the citizens are not ready to make it work
