Nigeria is just not working, and will not work. Maitatsine started religious mass killings in 1980 and in Kano alone, over 4000 lives were lost. Then you have Zaria before, then Zango Kataf, and the series of other religious crisis in the North mostly aimed at the christians and southerners. The foundation in 2002 of Boko Haram by Ustaz Mohammad Yusuf as directed by his masters took the whole thing to a new dimension. Al Qaeda is now in Nigeria and you will find out that most of their operatives are imported jihadists.
What were we expecting when we allowed some mallams to introduce Sharia laws in Zamfara and later other northern and pretend as if nothing was wrong with it in a supposedly secular nation under one federal constitution?
My elders say " na where monkey from go pluck corn, na there e go from go pluck Kolanut if dem no stop am first time" ... and no forget say Kolanut na for elders o!
This is not Jonathan's making. OBJ saw sharia and did nothing about it. Yar'Adua did nothing about it but instead they spent billions to beef up security over oil (not people) in the Niger Delta when what was needed is development and fairness.
Let those mallams have their Sharia state in the North and let us have our own nation down South.
The 1914 marriage is dead.
