I support the break up

Because without break ups some people, name with-held let me say from the east will go and do drugs in Asian country and they will tagged them Nigerians

Hence they keep spoiling the reputation of we Nigerians who are legit.

American government has stopped given visas to Nigerians because of what our brother in the eastern part has been doing in all over the world

Drugs everywhere yahoo yahoo in Malaysia and more unreal business.

If there is breaks ups

We will be able to differentiate Biafra oduduwa and others

Then American embassy in Nigeria will start issuing visas to anyone they like instead of using one eastern man’s crime to punish the whole people

Don’t insult me please am just bringing a point

If you do you will get it back

Say no to tribalism

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

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.

That's his own opinion. Allow a referendum for people within the regions who want to leave to decide for themselves.

tintingz:
Where and when did he made such statement?

The only christians who can be evicted from their lands are native Hausa christians from the core north who are a minority and whose lands are controlled by the caliphate.

Christians cannot be evicted from the North-central, the North-east or Southern Kaduna in an all full-scale war because christians are the majority population in most of these areas they are found in the North.

Instead it would be the other way round in many parts of the North central and North-east, muslims would be the ones to be evicted.

Corrosiveman:
I Disagree
Break up is the Only solution
Remember when the government said an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the North.
Now we have Shittes
Very soon Saudi Arabia and Iran would be
fighting a war in Nigeria via Proxy
If the government says no to restructuring then Break up is the Only solution

Very soon Oil would be Useless
Remember Coal in Enugu was once useful but not same
SS needs to Agitate for Restructuring or Break up

SoNature:
It will take an extremely intelligent people to have a population of nearly 200 million and still prosper.

Nigerians are neither talented nor smart..what thrives in this country is negative energy that is embellished in religion.

With all the proceeds from crude oil, Nigeria is still the world's poverty capital. When the oil runs dry or become completely useless, that's when Nigerians will start eating one another to survive.

It's high time we stopped fooling ourselves, thinking that this country is making progress.

Since 1960 to date, Nigeria hasn't been able to solve any of her major problem. What we have seen is that the problems keep piling up. I just hope that my generation will not witness the worst of Nigeria because it will definitely happen.

Dear Nigerian leaders, save the futures of these millions of people that late Lord Lugard greedily lumped together. Black Africans have proven not to be smart in the leadership circus. Nigeria is too complicated for one man to lead. If you cannot restructure, let's split peacefully.

If you will remain the best beneficiaries after the break up, then why are you all so afraid of it to the extent that you almost shit in your pants when it is mentioned?

Let me tell you why the Yoruba is so afraid of break up.

They know that if Igbo should leave today, invariably south south would leave too.

Now, all the IOCs that generate almost all the IGR through taxes that Yorubas make noise with will leave as well. They will all relocate their head quarters to the niger delta.

Also, the Lagos port which is made busy by the Igbos via their importation business will become almost non functional. The IGR that the port generates will reduce drastically.

When all these IGRs stop coming and "oyel money" stops coming too, the Yoruba will become as poor as their northern partners in crime.

The above is the only reason Yorubas are so afraid of break up.

Like seriously? I only wish this is true. I lived in Abuja/Nasarawa for long years and I stayed in core north (kebbi) for a year. Muslims: Christians ratio is 50:50 in North Central apart from Plataue state where Christians are more.
However, for the sake of the minority in core north, I pray the state of the union is not compromised

MachadoPreto:
Naxo he dey move. You guys attach too much importance to yourselves. Port will close. IGR will drop. West will still be your Dubai if Nigeria breaks. An average Igbo man can not live in the east all his life.

Nowenuse:
What about Benue state that is like 98% christian?
See something, in Nasarawa for instance, christians are actually 60% of the population and not 50/50. In many parts of Nasarawa and other Northern christian areas, you do not find muslims in the rural areas. This is because a lot of the muslims you see are settlers in these places. This gives you the false impression that muslims are actually more in that area when actually they aren't.
When it is time for crisis, you do not expect people who live in a town to overpower the natives who have dozens of villages surrounding that town.

Have you heard of Tafawa Balewa town in Bauchi state? No mosque exists in that town and there are no muslims there currently. They were all chased out in 2011. Muslims (most of whom were settlers) were actually about ½ of the population or even majority in that town in the past and they started behaving uncontrollably, claiming ownership of the town, when crisis begun and different group of christian militia started coming into the town and attacking from the surrounding villages (which are overwhemingly christian), all the muslims had to flee and never return.

I am a northern christian, this is why I am telling you this.
In Kebbi state for instance, christians can never be evicted from the 4 LGAs that make up Zuru zone because christian indigenous tribes are actually the majority in those areas and control all the rural terrains. However, christians can easily be evicted from other parts of Kebbi state.

The problem only comes for a northern minority tribe where at least 40-50% of their own people are muslims and take sides with Hausa fulanis or even if the tribe is overwhelmingly christian but surrounded and completely cut off from other christian areas, like in the case of the Ngizim of Yobe state (who are mostly christian and actually own Potiskum, the largest town in Yobe state), but are completely surrounded by muslim tribes. These type can easily be evicted when crisis begin even though they control their rural areas.
