Tribalism is not our problem. Tribalism and religion are artificial problems created by selfish leaders for their own personal interest.

There are only two major tribes in Nigeria. The Elites and the Masses.

Once you make lots of money, you belong to the elite tribe. When you are a commoner or suffering, you belong to the tribe of the masses. If you are an elite, and you need more power, or elective position, you sow seeds of tribalism and religion among the masses, so as to sway their emotion for your personal victory. This happens at both the national and state level. Unfortunately, after the election when they have won and joined their “sworn enemies” to drink and party, the gullible masses continue to fight each other.
‎
Even smart people who belong to the masses, sometimes will sow seeds of tribalism and religion among the masses, and then the masses will carry them up until they belong to the elite class.  It is a classic strategy used over 3000 years ago in the art of war.

A commoner who aspires to sit with the elites, could stir up powerful tribal or religious sentiments, such wave if properly utilized either by shedding blood or destabilizing the elites, carries the commoner to the elite class. But once there, he immediately mingles and makes peace with the elite tribe, and turn his back on the same masses that helped him get there.

Youths are the worst victim of this powerplay, they kill each other, call other tribes unprintable names, do terrible things and sometimes, even lose their life, thinking they are fighting for their right, not knowing that they are fighting for the personal welfare of someone, whose own children are probably safe in America or London.

So youths, don’t hope on the government. If you don’t have a job, create one. There is abject poverty in the south as well as the north, whether Ogoni or Maidugri. At the same time, there is massive wealth in Lagos, Onitsha, Nnewi, Aba, Kano, Abuja, irrespective of zone.

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it well and never remain idle. No job is too low for an idle hand, or else the devil will find work for you. As you become independent, and grow your capacity, do not lose hope in Nigeria. We are the largest economy in Africa and soon the world will fear us. Western powers, don’t like big economies that threaten them, 

America will do anything to break China, but China is wise to resist that. China has 1.6 billion people, Nigeria has only 170 million, and we are talking of breaking.

China has 5 major religions which are Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Islam and Christianity. Nigeria has only 2 major religions, Christianity and Islam. Yet we claim that religion is our problem.
America, the strongest economy is comprised of every tribe in the world, since they accept anybody from any part of the world. Yet they are united and extremely patriotic. Nigeria has only 3 major tribes, and we claim tribalism.

Think clearly and deeply, and you will realize that empowering yourself is the best course of action, not fighting each other. And once the youths are empowered, they can begin to take back their future from the hands of the old and corrupt generation that has been blinding Nigerians with hatred, while looting all her resources. Sani Abacha’s loot is still stashed away in Switzerland, did he use it to develop the north? Those that stole billions under GEJ stashed it away in foreign banks, bought expensive toys, jets and foreign homes, are they using it to develop the south? . Now the ones stealing currently, including the “grasscutters”, are looking for Ikoyi apartments, abandoned houses, and pit toilets to hide it, are they using it for the youths in their tribe? NO!

Youths shine your eyes ! Don’t always fall for this tribal, religious sentiments over and over again. Nigeria is bigger than these corrupt elites. They are the problem, not the poor masses.‎

Good write up.

nice write up, its now left for the youth to wise up

Abeg, help me ask d guy o

The problem with most youths of today is lack of understanding after reading even when we have alots of them as graduates.....

A youth that cannot comprehend simple sentence is bound to fail in leadership and managerial positions. Readers are Leaders.

Ignorance masquerading as knowledge.

China is a communist state and the official line on religion in China is that it is a secular state. The Chinese government is quite ruthless when it comes to dealing with religions, particularly islam. China's wish has always been never to allow any form of religious extremism to flourish in their country.

If sanusi is so enamoured of China, then why is it that Northerners are always the ones who oppose secularism in this country?

If you are really serious about dousing religious tensions, the let Nigeria be a secular state where government leaves religion entirely in the hands of citizens as a matter of personal choice. Abolish Sharia law and let all Nigerians be governed by neutral secular laws, like China, the United States etc. Do that and perhaps you'll start making sense.

Sanusi has stated his point clearly that religion has never been our problem but d few elites are using religion to manipulate the populated masses out of their own selfish interest. I think the Emir has an intellectual point.

In every secular society, we have the good and bad guys. As there are bad Muslims, so also there are good Muslims. It is the same way we have good Christians and also the bad Christians including other religions (Traditional worshippers).

In actual sense, the wicked elites has been amending the constitutional laws out of their own personal selfishness interest inorder to oppress and suppress the poor masses thereby using Religion and Tribal/Ethnic sentiments as weapons of division to cause confusion and commotion among the people of Nigeria.

But, the time has come for the youths to wake up from their sleep and slumber to face reality.

Sanusi himself is one of the elites using religion to create division. He has supported virtually every initiative of the Conservative hardline northern religious bigots who will never allow this country to prosper by imposing sharia law on both their co religionists and non believers.
As much as I detest someone like Nnamdi Kanu, I sometimes can't help but feel that underneath the polemics of his views, a strong case can be made for the dissolution of this unprofitable enterprise called Nigeria.

Division might not really be the solution to the problem ravaging Nigeria. But if only we are able to set our priorities right as a nation, we shall all have a lot more to benefit from living together.

We have so many religious bigots, ethnocentric and political sychophants across the six geo-political zones that are benefiting from the rancourous and venomous state of Nigeria thereby making the power house (youths) of the nation looks confused and unstable in their daily living.

What good is large population to Nigeria when there are quota system, sectionalism and economic fraud in Nigeria? I hate when most Nigerians mention Nigeria when speaking about the achievements of countries such as USA and China.

Is this towel head idiotic sanusi not culpable for the mob death of Akaluka in Kano, while citing blasphemy? . Me & my people are not of thesame tribe or ethnicity with hausafulani & yoruba muslim. I can't even imaging eating from thesame plate with a muslim, be it of yoruba or hausafulani extraction .

Intelligent stuvv

Which tribe are you Mr Sanusi

The Elites in Nigeria are selfish and envious of one another. Better pass my neighbour Politicians.
The Masses are Touts bastardised by gossips, corruption, incitements and rebellion.
So help Nigeria God.
