The problem of Southerners and Christians in Nigeria are similar. They are their own problems themselves.
The Southerners and Christians are full of self, envy, greed, pride, ignorance, sentiments and insincerity to themselves.
This has made them divided against themselves and vulnerable to destruction.
As regards registration for the national I.D card, northerners defile all odds to queue day in day out to be counted as Nigerians while Southerners and Christians are 'BUSY' looking for ends-meet (lol). Which one's more important?
The typical hausa man queues at the NIMC office to be a registered Nigerian while the Yoruba or Igbo man feels it's not necessary.
Their leaders encourage them to do it and help them do it for free, Southern and Christian leaders extort their own people so as to discourage them to do the needful.
People are now asked to pay just to get print outs of the national i.d card when in some core northern states, they pay people who have successfully got their PRINT OUTS.
I hear people say, they ask their people to pay for different reasons, but why must i pay to get a national i.d of my own country?
But then again, even at that, we should do whatever it requires to have a stake and a say in our own land. Not just because of today but for the sake of the future.
This is the reason why they say that Northern Nigeria is more in terms of population than Southern Nigeria (which is absolutely false), then we begin to cry fowl, forgetting that we fail to do what matters most when they matter.
I want to encourage Southern and Christian Nigerians to start thinking more like patriotic people no matter the discouragement. We have given too much room for danger due to our lackadaisical attitude towards things that pertain to national or community issues and that's why we got to this pitiable point.
I just wrote what's on my mind, even if you attack me for this (Business As Usual) it doesn't change anything.
I have spoken and posterity will not forget. Let's start living a life of genuine communal-ism and love.

we don dey queue for long.....what's the assurance DAT we won't queue again for d same Id card in years to come?

Thanks Op but i don't belive in this forced marriage called Nigeria.We are not proud to call Nigeria our country or are u proud to stand in for this nation?

You have a point there,
But then again, have you asked yourself why there is no peace yet in Southern Sudan even after the disintegration?
The solution to Nigeria does not lie in separation but courageously challenging our problems in the face.
