Your OP should have carried more details because this is a general board where different nationalities visits, a none Nigerian might not understand where your argument is coming from. Like @Franctoshi, noted this thread should be in Nigerian politics and society board but since it's not moved we can as well make comments here. What is happening in Nigeria, is that some regions of the country feels marginalized and wants to go their separate ways, the reason for this is bad governance, when the government is favoring some regions more than the others. I believe that if the leadership is favoring to all the regions nobody will be interested to breakout from the country. There had been a civil war to divide the country but it didn't work out, now it is in the hands of politicians to unite the country but they are clearly not doing enough and the agitation is continuing in some communities.
