Okonjo-Iweala’s son, Uzodinma suggests Nigeria’s dissolution months to 2023 elections

Beasts of No Nation writer, Uzodinma Iweala, has stated that Nigeria needs another independence and should be dissolved.

Uzodinma made the declaration in his article,’Nigeria’s Second Independence: Why the Giant of Africa Needs to Start Over’, published in Foreign Affairs.

The American magazine of international relations and United States foreign policy is published by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).

Uzodinma’s call comes as Africa’s most populous nation prepares for the general elections scheduled for February and March 2023.

The author insists that one of the solutions to the political troubles of the country is its dissolution.

As citizens face serious security and economic problems, he urged them to decide if they want Nigeria’s existence as a state to continue or to expire.

“Nigeria’s political system defies neat packaging”, stressed the son of ex-Finance Minister and WTO DG Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.

“Scholars have labeled it everything from the facetious “chaosocracy” to the more benign “entrepreneurial democracy” to the pejorative “kleptocracy.”

Uzodinma said such tags wrongly suggest that Nigeria’s problems stem from individual moral failings within the political class.

Citing experts’ recommendation of good leadership and good governance, the Harvard graduate believes no individual, however well intentioned, can fix the challenges.

“Nothing should be off-limits for discussion – even the dissolution of the country”, he suggested.

“Before doing anything else, Nigerians need to decide: Do they want the patchwork entity named Nigeria to remain Nigeria?

“It is a reasonable question, given that the country is the arbitrary product of colonial boundaries.”

Uzodinma said in their quest to form a working system, citizens should not “limit their thinking to outdated and flawed U.S. and European models of democracy”.

The novelist won the Hoopes Prize and Dorothy Hicks Lee Prize for Outstanding Undergraduate Thesis while in Harvard, among other honours.

“Since 1914 the British Government has been trying to make Nigeria into one country, but the Nigerian people themselves are historically different in their backgrounds, in their religious beliefs and customs and do not show themselves any signs of willingness to unite … Nigerian unity is only a British invention” –Alhaji Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, 1948.

“Nigeria is not a nation. It is a mere geographical expression. There are no ‘Nigerians’ in the same sense as there are ‘English,’ ‘Welsh,’ or ‘French,’ The word ‘Nigeria’ is a mere distinctive appellation to distinguish those who live within the boundaries of Nigeria and those who do not” -Chief Obafemi Awolowo, 1947

“It is better for us and many admirers abroad that we should disintegrate in peace and not in pieces. Should the politicians fail to heed the warning, then I will venture the prediction that the experience of the Democratic Republic of Congo will be a child’s play if it ever comes to our turn to play such a tragic role” -Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, 1964.

Even the founding fathers of the failed entity later regretted their believe in this so called country they were dying for. Nigeria is a fraud that will self destroy whether this startling reality is accepted or not.

The Truth is that 100% guaranteed, Nigeria was here 100 years before you, Nigeria will be here 100 years after your demise.

So why waste your short life on earth chasing shadows?

Be the best you can be Mr Racoon because Nigeria ain’t going nowhere, it is here forever, which is the duration of your lifetime.

After you are 6 feet under resting having completed running your race in the world of the living, of what value will Nigeria be to you?

White man enslaved you, lumped your different tribes under the same country, meanwhile they went back creating their countries made up mostly of homogeneous tribes.

Yet see you as a black man, ready to die in your slavery.

That is why I will always say the WHITE MAN is far, far superior to the black man.

What do you even produce?

Your own as a black man is just to defend your chains of slavery.

He's actually in a country where things are working well, yet he still thought it wise to write about the dissolution of this crapdump. Whereas the fo0ls living in Nigeria, suffering as a result of the stagnation and failure of the system, are still defending it.
Really, it's good to travel. Cos only the vrchins who have never left the borders of Nigeria, talk rubbish about Nigeria remaining one. A couple of them can be seen from their ignorant submissions above.

There's nothing like slavery in Nigeria. Nigeria has lasted for this long because of free petrodollars from Niger Delta (and widespread corruption).

If this country isn't restructured and crude oil becomes valueless, Nigeria will crash - this is something everyone knows.

"........The British cobbled together Northern and Southern Nigeria in 1914. They did it to save administrative costs at the eve of World War I.Only six individuals actually signed the Amalgamation document. They are:

-Siyanbola Oladigbolu(Alaafin of Oyo),
-R.Henshaw(Obong of Calabar),
-Muhammadu Maiturare,(Sultan of Sokoto),
-Abubakar Garbai el-Kanemi(Shehu of Borno),
-Usuman bin Abdullahi(Emir of Kano),
-Sir Kitoyi Ajasa(lawyer and member of the Legislative Council of the Crown Colony of Lagos.The latter, Sir Kitoyi, was largely an agent of the British.....)"

“It is only a matter of time before the strange amalgam of a unitary federation becomes fully blown........"

"The ideas I have embraced is bigger than Peter Obi's Presidential ambitions". Those of you that keep shouting go and collect your PVC, should get it and go back to Lagos, and vote, because come 2023, there would be no election in the East, until Nnamdi Kanu is freed.
