Another Blood Bath in Borno

No fewer than 30 people were killed yestarday in a beer parlour in Maiduguri by members of Boko Haram.  According to reports, the members of the religious sect numbering about ten stormed the beer parlour in two cars and started shooting sporadically and leaving more than 30 killed in the aftermath.  How long can we live with this in this nation?  Something urgent needs to be done before this dis-integrates Nigeria.

@AGOR. You have spoken well! And by my permutation GEJ may be the last President of Nigeria except there is a call for SNC. That's the only way Nigeria can exist-via cofederation.

Agor, whether we like it or not, our nation is at a crossroad and we need to discuss the way forward.  Our leaders can pretend that nothing is at stake, because they are benefitting in one way or the other from the purported unity, but they cannot pretend for too long because they evidences of disunity and instability are stirring us in the face.  The earlier they rise to the occasion the better for us all.  If we continue to live together, we have to sit down and discuss the way forward.
The earlier the better.

We really need to talk.  We have played this hide and seek for long.

One Nigeria worked till now because they North were fully in-charge.  But now that leadership has shifted to the South, one can see their true colour.  A country with double standards is not a one in the true sense.

The problem is deeper than you saw, was actually the british who knitted wrong combination of ropes and tightened them at the mouth of dynamite. It was made in such a way that if you try to untie the ropes forcibly, the dynamite will explode. But if you gradually loosen it, the main three ropes will fall apart. If such is what Nigerians want, Nigerians will definitely have it sooner or later. But not now we just concluded election and yet to taste run.

They want to get the entire North islamized.  They are also not happy that a Southerner is the president.
