YOU DON'T KILL INNOCENT HUMAN BEINGS IN ORDER TO UNITE THEM WITH YOU

This is what Nigeria has been doing and this is the singular reason why many Igbos have a deep-rooted hatred for Nigeria.
Unity by force has NEVER worked throughout history. Otherwise, where are the old empires today?
Sustainable unity should be negotiated. It should never be done by force. The parties concerned must agree to be united through a peaceful and respectful negotiation.
A referendum is a modern and civilised way of making such national decisions.
North Sudan used force to keep South Sudan for many years because of the crude oil in South Sudan. Did it work? No! Nigeria is making the same mistake North Sudan made.
You cannot tell me that a country created by foreigners, the British is non-negotiable. Were you there when the Berlin conference took place? Were your ancestors consulted before Africa was partitioned by the Europeans? So what is your problem?
Note that I did not refer to Nigeria as a nation. Nigeria is not a nation. Nigeria is made up of many nations forced into one country by Great Britain for the economic benefits of Great Britain.
Europeans get two heads? Are they not humans like us? They die like us. They are mere mortals. They should not be creating countries for us based on their own selfish interests. We the Africans have never created even a street in Europe. So why should they create countries for us here in Africa. It is unacceptable!
If Nnamdi Kanu refers to us as animals in a zoo, we say he is insulting us. But are we thinking and behaving like normal human beings? Why kill your fellow African over a country created by Oyibo?
If nations are kept by force, then empires should last forever.
But the following empires listed below have come and gone.
Sasanian empire (224–636 A.D.)
Roman/Byzantine empire (about 330–1453)
Umayyad caliphate (661–750)
Spanish Umayyads (756–1031)
Abbasid caliphate (750–1258)
Samanids (819–1005)
Seljuqs of Iran (about 1040–1196)
Almoravids and Almohads (about 1062–1147; 1130–1269)
Seljuqs of Rum (1081–1307)
Ilkhanids (1206–1353)
Nasrid kingdom (1232–1492)
Mamluks (1250–1517)
Ottoman empire (1299–1923)
Timurid empire (1307–1507)
Safavid empire (1501–1722)
Mughal empire (1526–1858)
Therefore, Nigeria is negotiable, whether you want to accept that reality or not.
In recent years, the following nations were negotiated for and created.
IN ASIA: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Singapore, Malaysia, East Timor, Israel and Hong Kong ruled by Britain for 150 years was returned back to China.
IN AFRICA: Eritrea, Ethiopia, South Sudan and North Sudan.
IN EUROPE: Yugoslavia was broken into 6 nations along tribal lines. They are Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia (including the regions of Kosovo and Vojvodina) and Slovenia.
The USSR was divided (from 1940 to 1991) into 15 nations along ethnic lines. They are Armenia , Azerbaijan , Belorussia (see Belarus ), Estonia , Georgia , Kazakhstan , Kirghizia (see Kyrgyzstan ), Latvia , Lithuania , Moldavia (see Moldova ), Russia , Tadzhikistan (see Tajikistan ), Turkmenistan , Ukraine , and Uzbekistan.
In summary: New countries and nations shall continue to emerge, whether you like it or not. This is natural. Therefore, STOP killing innocent people over an unworkable contraption created by Oyibo and not even by your ancestors.
Reason for once ndi isi oji!!!!
