Princedapace: There is no way forward. I dont like blacks with our poor sense of finding solution. We have done this union for 60 years plus and we keep getting worse each election and each president. Why dont we just sit down and say, okay, seems this union wont work, can we trry another thing else? After all, the British who actually formed Nigeria knew that it was dangerious having multi ethnic entities in one union under unitary system. Can we go back to see how we can improve what the British did based on regionalism? The people who started created states upon states messed up Nigeria. it is a pity the poor masses are paying heavily for this.
myright: What you should be thinking now should be Yorubaexit....Think about European nations, they 80% homogeneous... almost One-Tribe-Nation. You don't need the other ethnic groups in Nigeria to be prosperous like Finland and Iceland....
beardedboy: Have they discovered any natural resource in the region? Is a big company or organisation trying to acquire vast land there but doesn't want to involve the government?
These are some of the major causes of insurgency. All this religious and tribal colourings are just distractions from the main issue.
Who is in what together? so it's only when trouble come that southwest will want to band together with the rest of the greater south abi? When it's election time again we will hear Ronu Ronu
Omo, make una with amotekun face una warrant alone abeg, leave the rest of us alone to face our own
myright: If only yorubas had Oduduwa republican, I don't this this thing would happen. Before you enter the republic, your finger prints would be taken. By now forensics expert would be on ground to conduct investigations, drones would be everywhere searching the bushes...
Yoruba ronu o Think about your children and the unborn
Since we all are still in this together, let's think of the way forward
Enugurangers: Thanks for bringing Peter Obi into this topic. What would Peter Obi have done differently since he would also be the chief security office of all Nigerian states?

She could still raise her kids, make money, without carrying unnecessary baggage of disrepute.
Today may seem ok with her, how about tomorrow?. Does she know where God is taking her to?. Maybe political office/appointment, and today will resurface.
I'm not against her, I'm simply saying silence means consent/affirmation. Let her try and publish her own side of the story at least for future reference, that's if she's innocent as you claim.
