Naive talk
Nigeria cannot separate
We can only fight over it till the strongest swallow the weakest.
The same thing that was interrupted by the creation of Nigeria will be completed
weakest groups will be assimilated and integrated
The idea of an Igbo nation living in peace alongside Ijaws Efik Yorubas etc is fantasy

The nation cannot separate some groups will simply be exterminated and their lands taken over
Some have a vision of a Caliphate etc

There cannot be peaceful separation just a bloody battle with only one winner
Exactly the bloody battle that happened in Scotland and whales etc
That blood you want will be your family own

That's because they know that Nigeria is a fraud that only Niger Delta oil and corruption sustain! The day petrodollars stop flowing, that will mark the end of this dysfunctional fraud.
You're not from Niger Delta.

Your Mkpurumini region contributes nothing to GDP

Somehow those of you using that line think you are sophisticated, it only shows u lack idea about the bigger picture, Nigeria is drifting apart rapidly that more people are accepting the idea of separation, when the separation eventually happens, same mindset will tickle down to each individual entity.
You don't need to explain to the morons... Blame Nigeria that the law is not working... If the law is working, your useless ethnic groups is useless..

As president then,you are aware of this fact and you kept on keeping divided people as one,you know the problem of Nigeria and you were solving fallacy.this man too is some people’s hero.
Now saying indirectly that Nigerian can never progress under this present arrangement
What is this one saying? The idiot from your ethnic group currently dividing the nation more and more with his myopic leadership style is what? undecided

The emergence of that satanic party in 2015 brought about the total division of the country because of their useless divisive campaign spearheaded by the idiot presently ruling you!

Buhari says even his cows at Daura ate more loyal than Nigerians.
Tomorrow Tinubu will say even his company Alpha Betta plus his son Seyi are more profitable than Nigerians.

That's how human beings are configured, and it's to the benefit of all. So, forcing a united Nigeria on us without working along that line is why it will always fail. Local council structure can take care of divisions among people of the same ethnicity which can form a region.
Forcing?

Who is forcing and who is us?


For as long as the rulers including the traditional ones and some private business moguls and their partners keep enjoying it, even itz 50 years enjoyment, then your talk holds no water.


Cuz they are also yoruba,igbo,hausa,fulani,ijaw,etc

He has a PhD even though APC contended it
He was once a lecturer and he spoke like one. Tinubu academic achievements are all in doubt and shrouded in secrecy.

Shut up
Awolowo called Nigeria 'a mere geographical expression'.
He always believed that you must be a good representative of your tribe before you can be a good citizen of Nigeria.

How was the mindset before almagation?
Don't you think it's this almagation that resulted to all the problems we are having

Because we stupidly copied democracy from the USA.

In the USA, you are from where you are born.(You are born in Texas, you are from Texas.)

So if you are Ibo and you are born in kaduna, you are from kaduna state.

If you are yoruba and you are born in Abia, you are from Abia state.

In Nigeria, if you are ibo and your family has been living in Kaduna for 100 years. you are still Ibo

Even though you have been voting for Kaduna state governor for 100 years. You are still guilty of crimes committed by your great grandfathers in Ibo land after living in kaduna for 100 years.

This is the most archaic system in the whole world....We are running a monarchy system and calling it democracy. Becasue you have to be born into it. Its is enabled for the benefit of the quota system, doesn't foster real development.

It doesn't make sense.When you elect semi-literate politicians, nobody can sponsor a bill to rectify this.
I don't think it's about who's being elected. Anyone who understands this country knows that Nigeria is a fraudulent and hypocritical entity.

The leaders make laws that maintain their tribal identities because they know that the country has nothing uniting it together, except a bunch of ethnic nationalities being coerced to live together while the minorities are butchered and leeched.

The day the petrodollars stop flowing will mark the end of Nigeria. Until then, we just keep fooling ourselves that we are one country just to keep stealing the oil resources of the delta region.

Well said, Anambra people see themselves as the real igbos but you factor the population of Igbos you'd begin to wonder what kind of sophistication is that.

Support the separation first. Nigeria is not designed to work.
Then change the design to make it work. Separation is not the solution cos every Separate entity will still want further independence or separation becoming weaker and irrelevant entities.

first of all let me tell you that your household must be full of idiots before you can easily identify one,that’s what you breed in your household.secondly what has your godly party form your ethnic been able to achieve since it was formed other than failure?,if only your regional party can succeed in winning election even in your region maybe it would have taken the country out of the mess it is now.failures knows success but can never achieve it.

Tribalism? See facts:

1. Nigeria - a mere geographic location - Pa Awolowo
2. TIWAN TIWAN - Pa Awolowo
3. I don't believe in one Nigeria - Tinubu
4. If you won't vote APC, go home - South West
5. Which tribesmen live least outside of their region - South Westerners
6. Final TKO Point: See BAT's appointments - parochial, nepotistic, tribal, ethnic ... Federal Character - Zero

Nigerians: Champions of tribalism, ethnicity, nepotism are mostly South Westerners (caution: There is a few who are different - that's fairness/balance, which Reuben Abati lacked in his mischievously fallacious vituperations.. so disrespectful, stereotypical, over generalising & unprofessional!

Exactly.

The Fulanis are already on it. Kwara State is in the bag, Ogun and Oyo in view.
You didn't mention your Mkpurumini region and how you and your blodas are slaughtering each other daily.

I wonder how many of your blodas will be alive to vote Agulu fraud in 2027.

South West is still the most peaceful and habitable region.

Simple truth. Remove state of origin, replace it with state of residence otherwise our leaders are the one's promoting disunity. Religious leaders are also toeing that part, the only time you wouldn't see tribalism in the church is when they call for donations and financial assistance and that when they will sing songs in different tribes and tongues. Nigeria, indeed we hail thee!

Bitter truth so far.......

If you've been privileged to travel across different states in Nigeria, you'd know what uncle Jona is saying is nothing but the truth.....
Nothing bitter about it.

Nigeria has to become a true Federation.
Unity can only come when we respect and acknowledge the uniqueness of ourselves and others. "One Nigeria" cannot be compelled - we are not soldiers.

The country is a scam, was not supposed to be. Division will usher development but the western countries still colonizing Nigeria through neocolonialism will not allow such because of the resources they directly and indirectly stealing for the leaderless entity.

Disloyal people can't build a working system, a system don't fall from the blue sky, people build it.
Ironically, this disIoyaI mindset transcends down to the LGA of every Nigerian, Nigerians Iack patriotism so much that putting in resources to fully rebrand even their LGA is difficult.
Are you now a “one Nigerialist” because your principal is in Aso rock?

Igbos are the worst tribalistic and religious fanatics among all Nigerians. They see tribe and religion before anything else even when abroad .
Whenever I meet an Igbo person in the US, the first thing rhwy talk about is what tribe you are and next is " oh you are a Muslim"?
Even Oyinbo don't care but Igbos from Nigeria cares about what religion you belong too.
Very annoying and pathetic.
learn to avoid those animals when abroad, before they will put you in trouble. You know the majority of them are criminals, don't let them implicate you.
