No, in Lekki they burning Igbos houses just because they are Igbo. I'm good off that. Nigeria shouldn't exist anymore. The west refuses to honor the referendum speaks volumes to their involvement in the hostility in West Africa

That said, Apu, are you going to fix the caste issues in India that the white man did to India?

Nigeria should be a superpower. If they want to wallow in tribalism and corruption instead of working together to be what they should be then all power to em :salute:

They won't and they shouldn't...Like, why should they? Why not just let each group rule themselves according to their rules, history and traditions?

Nigeria has multiple ethnic groups, that are bigger than many nations around the world. Scandinavia(Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland) has a population of 27 million people. The Yoruba people, in Nigeria only, are 40+ million people. How is this not a nation of people?

Uruguay, Panama, Costa Rica, Moldova, Croatia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Slovenia, Latvia, Switzerland, Hungary, Belarus, Austria, Bulgaria, Serbia, Mongolia, Laos, Qatar, Armenia, Lebanon, Kyrgyzstan etc...Are all countries with less than 10 million people. The Fulani, in Nigeria only, are 15 million people.

I seriously don't understand the idea of forcing Nigeria to be one. Do some of these people believe that this is the only form of unity?

Lmao, give me the examples of groups forced to live together, that still worked out?

Yugoslavia? Soviet Union? India? Federal Republic Of Central America? Israel-Palestine?

Even colonial states in the Central and South America didn't function as part of the Kingdom Of Spain, despite the majority of the rulers, both in Spain, and in the Americas, being Spaniards.

Czechoslovakia, was composed of Czechs and Slovaks, both sharing the same ancestry, language and customs, and it still failed due to ethnic conflicts. Czechs had way more power and resources than Slovaks.

Cooperation can only work, if the association is without force. When all involved decide to join, with plans that will equally benefit all.
