As a Nigerian, why do you always get afraid when you hear separation?

I BELIEVE IN ONE NIGERIA TO THE EXTENT THAT THE INALIENABLE RIGHTS OF THE MINORITY ARE NOT JEOPARDIZED. SEE WHAT I MEAN:

Singapore was once part of Malaysia. Pakistan was once part of India Bangladesh was once part of Pakistan. East Timor was once part of Indonesia. Sudan was once part of Greater Egypt, and Eritrea was once part of Ethiopia. South Sudan was once part of Sudan, Southern Cameroon was once part of Nigeria, Namibia was once part of South Africa, Gambia was once part of Senegambia, Ukraine was once part of USSR

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia were once together in Yugoslavia, Crimea was once part of Ukraine, Czech and Slovakia were once together as Czechoslovakia, United States of America was once part of the British Empire, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Amernia, Jordan, Israel, Palestine etc., were once part of the Othman Empire.

As a Nigerian, why do you always get afraid when you hear separation?

Except for few of these countries, they are all doing well, far better than the “united” Nigeria.

The multi dollar question is: why do some Nigerians think that those clamouring for secession don’t mean well for Nigeria? Will Nigeria be well only if we remain together? I am not a secessionist but can’t understand why this song is reigning. Worst still is that the ignorant sees you as a criminal once you support a cause for break up.

Under the international law, to clamour for breakup is not a crime but to forcefully and wickedly force a people to stay under a torturing country is. Stop the lame, sentimental war and let the people who desire freedom be.
