I hope other regions could present their own findings to the state government talk-less of Buhari administration. The West, East and Southern regions should follow this path.

Do u really believe, deep down u, that dividing this country is what will solve each region's problems?? Do u know the story of north and south Sudan?? Do u think if the country is divided today all the greedy men from the east, south, north and west will suddenly stop being greedy?? No, in fact, they will even become more greedy, that I promise u.
