Types of People threatening Nigeria's Unity

Leave a Comment
It’s been about 103 years(1914-2017) that different groups have been living together and controlled by one central administration, yet threats against the nation's unity is becoming stronger everyday, Nigerians still live as if they are forced to live together.
together for a century and three years but still can't learn how to live together in peace and unity. Who are those threatening Nigeria's Unity? Who are the supporters? They classified into different groups.
Check the list below to know if you are one of them.
a.  The Heroes
Some leaders, notable peoples and groups fall into this group. They want to be part of the  history. They want to become hero. They want to become founders of a new country, forgetting that they will destroy a whole nation during the process. They don not see Nigeria as a bowl of water placed on a three legged stand
b. |The Hypocrites
This are people or groups that always blame IPOB, Arewa Youths, MOSSOB, Afenifere Youths etc for threatening Nigeria Unity but later makes statements such as “if Nigeria breaks up today, this community/L.G.A/state will join that group” and other statement showing that they are also preparing for disintegration of the nation.
c. The fault finders and stigmatizers 
This type of people indirectly contribute to the issue. There is a common saying “condemn the wrong act not the actor” but this type of people will condemn both the actor and his tribe/state.
The tags people from a particular area with a wrong doing.  For example (1) someone who always want to buy cheap product and later end up in buying products of low quality, they say “Na Igbo made”. (2) They always use names from a particular part or religion as abusive terms e.g. Aboki, Afonja, Sule, Suraju etc (3) They tags anyone that fight with broken bottle “Agbero” (Yoruba thugs) with knife/cutlass “Fulani”
They always make post to abuse people from a tribe/religion on social media platforms
d. The over religious
I will say most Nigerians are very religious. They respect religious values. Many religious leader encourages their followers to practice love only within their brothers and sisters in religion.
They hate people practicing other religions such (1) that they can’t vote for them in time of elections.
(2) They  cant help people practicing other religions. (3) They are never satisfied with the doings of people from other religions
e  The territory Setters
This type of people of a prejudiced view of other people’s culture and imbibe this view into our kids and youths. For example: Most Nigerian parents will never allow their child to marry someone from other tribe. They don’t wan their child to have his NYSC service in another states. If a minor disagreement come up between couples of different tribes they say “that is how people from that tribe behaves”. Some can only vote for someone from their state in an election without considering his manifesto.
Some school managements only admit only aspirant from their states, some admit from any state but indigene pays twice or trice indigene fees
Some people of this group that are staying abroad will relate to a fellow Nigerian there as a brother instead they start the story “he is a Yoruba man and I am an Hausa man” who asked you the story?
 If you fall into any of these category, change today. Let us promote #oneNigeira. Remember, anythreat against ones country is a threat against ones state, family and oneself.
Let’s fulfill our pledge to Nigeria “…To defend her Unity…”
For peace and justice to reign in Nigeria we must promote UNITY

I was offered 5 states for Biafra but I rejected them

Leave a Comment
Nnamdi Kanu said his focus on achieving Biafra remains strong - The IPOB leader said he was offered oil bloc and five states to drop the agitation but he refused - He said seven states and five will make up Biafra and nothing can stop the agitation Nnamdi Kanu has revealed that federal government offered him five south eastern states to make up the proposed Biafra state. The leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) made this comment when leaders of Igbo Civil Society Coalition led by Prof. Obasi Igwe paid him a solidarity visit at his Umuahia home.
Kanu who spoke on Wednesday, July 19, said while he was in detention, he was offered Imo, Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi and Enugu state to form Biafra but he rejected it. He instead insisted that he wanted a Biafra with Rivers and Benue states. He said: “They gave me Biafra in Prison with only the five Igbo states; I said no, I want Benue and Rivers” “Biafra is coming, there is nothing to stop it”. Kanu also lashed out Igbo leaders for being against Biafra saying they have no interest in Igbo masses.
The IPOB leader also claimed he was offered oil bloc and mansion in Dubai to drop his agitation but said he declined saying he wanted only Biafra. Meanwhile, Some Niger Delta militant groups declared their support for the leader of the IPOB over his decision to boycott the forthcoming governorship election in Anambra state. The groups, Concerned Militant Leaders (CML), Niger Delta People Democratic Front (NDPDF) and Rainbow Marabas Squad (RMS) said they are unhappy over the May 30, 2016, when soldiers allegedly massacred harmless and innocent IPOB members. NAIJ.com gathered that leaders of the groups, General Ben (CML), General Playboy (NDPDF) and General Aneaja (RMS), in a statement issued via online after their meeting in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, demanded for justice for the victims of the May 30, 2016, Biafra Day celebration killings.

The West African Examination Council (WAEC) has provided steps candidates who are not satisfied with the outcome of their result can apply for their answer scripts to be remarked.
WAEC made this known while responding to questions on twitter. According to WAEC the process to get your script remarked is to first notify the school where you took the examination.

"Outstanding Result" simply means pending result. This means that there may be errors from the affected candidate either during registration or the examination that are being corrected. The results that fall in this category have a high chance of being released.
"Withheld or held Results" on the other hand signifies that the affected candidate violated the rules & regulations guiding the conduct of the examination.
