The Vice-President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, has said there is no truth in the thinking that the different regions of the country would prosper individually if the country breaks up.

He said Nigeria needed to learn from the example of Sudan, which split into northern and southern Sudan in the belief that that was the solution to the country’s internal strife.

Also citing the case of Somalia, the Vice-President argued that the fact that people speak the same language and practice the same religion was no guarantee that they would live in harmony.

The Vice-President spoke in Lagos on Tuesday at the 70th anniversary lecture of the Lagos Country Club.

He spoke on the theme, ‘Promoting national cohesion as a means of promoting progress and prosperity.’

Osinbajo, while pointing out that diversity could either be a trigger for conflict or a fountain of prosperity and progress, urged Nigerians to embrace the latter like the United States of America, which exploited diversity to its advantage.

He said, “The truth is that any group that suggests that its destiny is outside Nigeria and so must separate to achieve its ambitions will find out soon enough that even within that group there are many little splinters, factions waiting to cut the pie into even smaller pieces, hoping that by doing so, they will eat a large piece.

“The mere fact that we all speak the same language or belong to the same tribe does not mean that there will not be strife; and in the same way, the mere fact that we all speak different languages or belong to different tribes and religions does not mean we will strive.”

Osibanjo regretted that as a result of weak law enforcement and justice institutions, divisive narratives had gained ground in the country.

To reverse this trend, he said the institutions must be strengthened to assure Nigerians of security anywhere they lived.

He added, “The challenge is dynamic and our approach must also be dynamic. That is why I believe that state police in a large and diverse federation is an imperative. However, we know that the creation of state police requires constitutional amendment. In the interim, the Federal Government has approved community policing, as an option. A component of that is that the new approach to police recruitment is that policemen will be recruited in each local government and after training, they will be required to remain in their local government.”

In another development, Osinbajo said the Federal Government must win its fight against human trafficking.

The vice president, who said the government was concerned about the youth and the dangers of trafficking, added that sexual offences were abominations to God and man and the government had established the sexual offenders’ register.

He spoke on Tuesday in Abuja at a public lecture on the 2019 World Day against Human Trafficking.

The lecture was hosted by the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons and other related offences with the theme, ‘Human Trafficking: Call your government to action.’

Osinbajo said, “Human trafficking is a clear and present danger which confronts all nations in the world either as a source, transit or destination country. It is therefore pertinent that the efforts to combat it should be wholesome.”

As a true citizen of the country I first see myself as a Nigerian before I think of myself as an Anambra man before I even accept to be referred to as Igbo.
if we all can have this mentality then peace, unity and progress will be established in the nation.

If north were to be the bedrock of Nigeria economy and everything happening in the north all this while is coming from the south, do you think north would not have broken away from Nigeria . None of you guys has been able to proffer solutions to our problems and you're here yarning dust.

This administration hasn't fared well as first expected.

In the current Nigerian setting it favors the North

Even with that poverty still flogs their populace

Inasmuch as I desire a breakup too, I believe it is not in the best interest of some group of people. As a Christian, I will not advocate breakup for the sake of the Christians in northern Nigeria. The only defence most of them are still having against mass execution is the unity of this country. I will rather swallow my desires to be my brother's keeper.
Restructuring won't be a bad idea though

In a country where one overpopulated region with uneducated people ruling the entire country all the time, separation is the solution at least the other regions we have the chance to rule themselves and make plans to develop their own regions
