There are ten sovereign nations in the world with a population less than 70 thousand people apart from those who are semi independent overseas territories of bigger nations. Also, there are numerous categories of nations, Barbados for instance is less than 300 thousand with per capita income two times the global average, Botswana is landlocked with almost two times the average per capita income on the globe. So a nation can be small and great, Liecheistein is less than 40 thousand but is the richest German speaking country on a per capita basis while Monaco of a similar population is a monarchy under Prince Albert. All are well run nations that are very successful.



So, what we need in Nigeria is to break up the country, there is no town without a GDP, no town that is not sending one thing or the other outside while receiving imports. Like a family, get yourself organised, tax yourselves to build roads, hospitals and schools for your children, raise the quality of life and living standard, with seriousness, things will start to get better as more and more hands are joined together.


What you need is a guarantee from your neighbours that they will not hamper you in any way, the people on the coast will not tariff your imports while the people to the North will not tariff what is coming from their direction too. It must be noted that Mali, Niger, Chad and etc have been going on without this guarantee for years while the income from the ports are embezzled by those taking them to the disadvantage of their citizens. Customs staff are customarily millionaires, even billionaires atimes in Nigeria.


So if the issue of ta-riffing goods can be removed, all groups should be happy to stay on their own. No issue of nomadic herdsmen again as all groups will have their armies, police or militia to take care of that angle. For instance, the Bariba, Yoruba and etc used to employ the Bororo to care for their cattle in the past and there was decorum. The two groups had interest in both the cattle and the farm lands. There was food security and people were not afraid of investing in farming because gun wielding cattle rearers would bankrupt them when the farm is used as cattle feed by the nomads.


So no matter how small the population of a group, they can, like a family, stand on their own and solve their problems, the only problem will be that they will not be able to achieve very great things. For instance, Ethiopia is a poor country on a per capita basis but they can skim some capital off their GDP to build a space observatory station worth millions of dollars. A nation of 20 thousand people will not be able to afford that. However, you may not be able to afford expensive and bold projects if you have a small population of workers but you will still be able to cater for yourselves while the people with a huge population have most of the adventure, sponsoring research and etc.

I suppose you live abroad right? Or didn't you hear numerous reports about how members of IPOB block roads and constitute whatever of themselves?

Can you show me a link supporting this position of yours?.

Lies? Hypocrisy? What on earth are you yapping about dude, please be concise and never play to sentiment and emotion and learn to debate with using them.

So you think Igbos are barely existing? Can you show me the Igbos that are not existing? Kindly point out the LGA's and places where they reside so I'll know you're not being emotional.

Thank you.
