Why Revolution Can Never Work In A Setting Like Nigeria by tigerclaws: 7:47pm On Aug 04, 2019
check your history
revolution can never be possible in a country like Nigeria because
Nigeria is a multi ethnic and multi religious country and if you check revolution hardly happen in a country like this because politicians always capitalize on these to divide the masses which is unfortunate situation of Nigeria

Don't worry folks we don't need to take to the street for revolution because Nigeria is too divided for that to happen

Fulani herdsmen are already doing the job and trust me a point will reach when people will start taking laws into their hands and that'll lead to anarchy which is worse than a Revolution

I have long consoled myself because there's nothing like change in Nigeria. The situation of Nigeria is pathetic and I don't think there's any known social theory that can be applied as a solution. I have read so many criticism about our politicians and the blames heaped on them, I marvelled because the problem of Nigeria is not solely on leadership. There's no one particular thing that's a problem with Nigeria. Rather, a collection of related and unrelated factors. Chief among them is ethnicity and religiosity.

Many people voted buhari especially for the second tenure because he's a northern(especially those related to Fulani), because of the expected power shift to western Nigeria come 2023. Others voted him because of personal benefits/aggrandizement.

if there comes any protest geared towards revolution, it won't be successful because;

1. There are too many agencies and appointees heading them. Each agency headed by an appointee will sponsor counter protest.

2. Many Igbos (especially ipob apologists) will not buy the idea because sowore used his sahara reporters to attack Nnamdi Kalu. Although they seems to have waved that aside.

3. Many politicians will feel threatened if the protest makes headway ( Wike has already kicked against it).

4. Hausas will rise against Yorubas because sowore is the one championing it especially when the protest progresses. While Igbos will mock Yorubas. Yoruba political juggernauts like tinubu will do everything possible to stop sowore because of 2023 interest.
5. Religious leaders and parents will warn their adherents and wards to stay off.
6. Nigerian youths are more interested in bbnaija, epl, zanku zanku, soapy dance and other entertaining activities than revolution.

7.The revolution will die a natural death and we return to internet outbursts using Twitter, Facebook, nairaland etc.

Revolution Nearly Did . Between 1968 and 1970. If not for the backstabbing of Awolowo, Obasanjo and The South south People, Nigeria would be 3 or 4 functional countries instead of one BIG FAILURE.

So it's no longer Awolowo alone that backstabbed you abi?
So Obasanjo and the South-South also betrayed and back stabbed you?

Before 2023, you start accussing Gowon, Danjuma, Murtalar Muhammed, Muhammed Shuwa and Buhari of betraying Biafra.

Exactly! A revolution can never work in a deeply divided multi ethnic and multi religious nation like Nigeria and I keep telling people this, but they don't get it.

Core northern Nigerians will destroy Nigeria with their own hands. If Boko haram does not do it, the Bandits will, if they fail, the shiites will, if they fail fulani herdsem will seal everything up and if probably these ones fail, a newer and more radical groups than the others will be born. The cycle cannot end.

My pity lies with the foolish group of innocent Southern & Middlebelt christians who are still wishful and hopeful that Nigeria will progress as a nation with core-northern muslims.

Very true,buhari and his herdsmen(both fulanis and non-fulanis) are already setting the pace for a spontaneous revolution...Nigeria will simply naturally dissolve into pieces

Tick-tock- goes the clock

100% facts..only the Fulani-land-grabbing tendencies sanctioned by buhari and co will do the magic.
