In "Any Serious Way?" It means dem discuss am small. At least at this level. When you now travel back to Trump, it will be discussed in a Serious Way!

Bro, nobody or country will come to Nigeria and separate us just like using knife to separate rope. Nigerians will do it themselves when they get to the threshold. We also have options of how to go about it when we are fully ready. Right now, we ain't ready. By the time we are ready, nobody will tell you and me......that's the fact........
It means you are not familiar with global politics.


United States of America helped divide the great USSR and turned it to several independent countries they are today.


US divided Sudan.

US have always played key role in dividing nations having internal crises, all they need to do it is a US President and some powerful congressmen interested in dividing that particular nation and it is a done deal, and if you prove too stubborn, they will turn your country to chaos and induce a civil war by sponsoring the aggrieved sides to wage a civil war, at the end, they still achieve their goal.


The only thing that can stop the division of Nigeria or prolong it from happening is for Yorubas especially to have some sense of decorum and stop thinking that they can lord over Igbos especially.....Yorubas must stop their arrogant bragging that AN IGBO MAN WILL NEVER BECOME PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA, that statement alone will lead to the division of Nigeria if they don't exercise caution and allow equity, justice, fairness and peace to reign but if they think they will continue to use politics of gangup and tribalism against Igbos to shortchange Igbos in Nigerian national politics and affairs, take it from me, Nigeria will divide peacefully or violently in no distant time, bookmark this thread.

I don't blame the Kanu cult members shamelessly mentioning me and tagging me other Nl monikers. It's seun and DSS fault that they've not been able to rid the cyberspace of these lunatic, brainwashed, shallow minded secceccionists.

Like some said, they know they've been defeated, all their lies and lobbying plans have resulted in USA even walking with the Nigerian government than breakup Nigeria to give them their slave camp called Biafra.

Zuzubenu inugo ‼️
it's not easy to break free from brainwashing.

Ndi igbo ibem, ge nu nti.
Nigeria will never breakup in our lifetime and in the next 3 generations of Igbos to come. Biafra is gone and will never amount to anything good for Igbos (it never did before). The sooner you guys make peace with that and learn to live to make our own side of Nigeria so unique that other would want to be with us, the better for you.

You can continue wasting your time believing in fantasies of a utopian Biafra nation, it'll never come to pass.

Nigeria is the country we found ourselves in and we'll stay and contribute our quota to make it better and the desire of others.

You're not making sense. You're not more Christian than the Yorubas, yes. The most prominent Christians in Nigeria are not from your side and I don't understand how persecution of northern Christians has anything to do with igbos.
Take out the Igbos, and the Christians in Southwest will.be annihilated in less than 10years. That's why Sharia is gradually encroaching the region.

The Igbos are the only people in Nigeria with almost 99% Christianity and 1% traditional religion
Re: No Plans To Divide Nigeria - Riley Moore by wallrichy: 5:14pm On Feb 07
You are damn right. So sorry I forgot that story. Of course, external influence could do amazingly well in the separation. However, I still feel we haven't gotten to that threshold and that threshold is what the external forces too are waiting for. You know, in the situation of Russia Perestroika, the planning commence immediately after the second war world. The cold war was spearhead by the US and the UK but came to fruition gradually until it got to a point that the citizens overwhelmingly requested for separation of the entity called the Soviet Union......no refusal, no discord but willingly got their freedoms.....that's what I meant by nobody would put a knife in-between to separate us but the knife would eventually be used afterall at the long run.....will be given to us and we use it to separate ourselves.....note: the knife will be handed to us and we would use it to separate ourselves.....hope you understand that phrase?........

That's a valid point. But, if Nigerians are to determine when we're ready, why are we allowing Riley Moore to dictate what conversations we can engage in? That’s the core issue here.

“He stated that in all the discussions, the idea of “dividing the country has not come up in any serious way”.

So the division of Nigeria actually came up at all then.


I so much believe that Countries that uphold Nigerian unity always state it clearly that. “They are committed to the unity of Nigeria” like Britain and other countries always say .. Unfortunately US is adopting diplomacy by not stating their intentions..
So you expect him to admit there's discussion to divide Nigeria. Na white man fit Una for dis country. I don't blame them cos it was too easy to deceive you guys in the past and it still remains the same. When Somaliland got there's did they announced it on daily bases? I'm so disappointed on average west African cos most of you don't have what it takes to determine your future

Don't you think parting the nation will encourage development and better vision gor its people?

There's nothing absolutely wrong with dividing the country, it was never one until 1914 and it'll go back to status quo as long as we keep pressing forth.

Nigeria is a terrorist state where her leaders only care for themselves and see the rest as less citizens not worthy of live.

United States Senator, Riley Moore has cleared the air on reports alleging that the US is planning to divide Nigeria.

In a statement on Saturday, the lawmaker said though he was in Nigeria and engaged in multiple high-level meetings with government officials, the discussion of dividing the country never came up.

He stated that in all the discussions, the idea of “dividing the country has not come up in any serious way”.

Moore noted that:


I have traveled to Nigeria and engaged in multiple high-level meetings with Nigerian officials, the Church, aid groups across the country, and IDPs, to get a better understanding of the rampant persecution of Christians in Nigeria.

In my discussions, the idea of dividing the country has not come up in any serious way. Efforts to embolden separatists hurts Christians in Nigeria - especially in the North and Middle Belt.

A destabilized Nigeria would embolden terrorists and make Christians less safe in Nigeria and across the continent.


I remain committed to working to save the lives of our brothers and sisters in Christ - and for that matter, all Nigerians - suffering from the instability wrought by terrorists throughout Nigeria.

The US and Nigeria have just entered into a security cooperation agreement, and that is an important step in tackling the violence in Nigeria and deepening and strengthening the bilateral relationship between our great nations.

God bless you all.

Is the CLEARLY stated bolded comment in English language above by Senator Riley Moore too difficult for some of these insidious NL posters twisting his words right from Page-1 difficult to understand? Such a deep low level of IQ on display here! It necessary for the intelligence agencies to beam a proper searchlight on NL for encouraging some NL trolls, random posters and secessionists to relentlessly use this discussion forum for spewing secessionist propaganda and disinformation.

Weather there is an upheaval or not, once the decision of division comes, no amount of chaos would stop the balkanization


It happened in Sundan , Nigerian won’t be an exception
Re: No Plans To Divide Nigeria - Riley Moore by wallrichy: 5:36pm On Feb 07
That's very interesting my brother. Let me answer you by saying Nigerians never sent Riley Moore and his entourage to come and intercede or interfere in our issues. They came due to the ongoing perception of Christians being killed by insurgents. There coming is a blessing in disguise because we have more issues on ground which is as necessary and very important to discuss as the senseless killing of people. The best the external world or forces can do for us is to spread our situations, tell the other world with their own mouth. Tell the United Nations etc.....its better when you make an announcement from the place of authority, just like Trump saying Nigeria needs to find their bearings, that country needs to go the old Russian way and be broken into pieces......You can see, that's a voice of a powerful Man and a powerful country, many people would listen to him and agreed to his views.....We should be thanking God that America has gotten interested in our situation and you know as well as I know, that America wouldn't abandon what they have started. However, we would still be the one to use our hands and break the relationship with the supports of external forces........

A southern Nigeria will need united armed forces devoid of ethnic sentiment to secure the resulting borders with the North.

Short of that, it's unending insurgency from the North.
The country does not need Southern Nigeria counrty and North. It should be Yoruba on their own or Yoruba-Fulani country, Igbo country or Biafra and Middlebelt country, then the North. God forbid Nigeria split and Igbo and Yoruba in the same country.

Which entire south? Igbo and Yoruna have no business being in one country. The South must be split in at least two. Yoruba with the North would even work better than Igbo and Yoruba in same country. Imagine

There won't be a second Biafra war, Nigeria will break up, albeit peacefully.

The prophesy has been on since 2018. The prophesy talked about ENDSARS and the fact that Biafra and Oodua will leave Nigeria.

Tinubu will be the last president of Nigeria and there's nothing anyone living, dead or spirit can do about it.

Northern Christians will be given an abode in Biafra.

The Deamalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates is already being discussed by the Igbo and Yoruba leaders (you can ask Chatgpt)

There is nothing deep or hidden about that

Some people have tried to hijack the narrative with IPOB stories

This is no secret

Northern Christians have not articulated a break up agenda

Why? has anyone imagined a Northern Christian territory?

Which states would that be ?
How can it survive outside Nigeria
IPOB Are entitled to agitate

But that has nothing to do with Christian genocide

Everyone can see through that

One Nigeria supporters i hope you are ready to live with this.
America was not able to stop them in Afghanistan.
Dividing Nigeria will make it easier to stop them.
Your mind is there. Jihadists want to control resources the way politicians are stealing it. Jihadist capture of Nigeria would be a boost for a country like Iran and Afghanistan and Turkiye. It would be another front to raise and funnel funds for more terror worldwide.

That's why they're actively planting Boko Haram and ISWAp in the military. Just one successful coup by Boko Haram, Nigeria Army Branch, that's it.

I'm very sure it's the Government using that guy to press your mumu button all the time.
Why are you waiting for a foreign country to divide your own country? Chai, something is seriously wrong with the African race. You are expecting another race or people elsewhere to come and break up your country in 2026? Are black people actually loosing it totally?
At this rate, there's a very high possibility that smaller Animals could have better brains than most of us in the nearest future wether due to evolution or whatever. Most Nigerans are loosing it.

What unsettles many Nigerians is not the denial itself, but the fact that such a question had to be denied at all. Governments do not publicly clarify imaginary conversations; they clarify issues that came close enough to serious corridors of power to require reassurance.

Now, on a lighter but telling Naija note grin grin if nobody mentioned “division,” why was the eraser already on the table? tongue In this part of the world, we don’t ask guests to explain why they didn’t move the furniture unless someone had already shifted a chair. When “it didn’t come up seriously” becomes the defense, then - the real question quietly becomes - who raised it, and why did it sound plausible enough to dismiss? undecided lipsrsealed

That the man even mentioned it shows that it is happening and that he is aware that that discussion is ongoing. With Biafrans in the US actively pushing for it, what do you expect?
