The Northern victory over Nigeria

Pics: Come to Nigeria 

It's no news that Nigeria as a country has different competitors including within its shores.

As it is said by the masses, the Northern Nigeria has taken over the nation. They say that all the sensitive political positions, Economical, security positions etc, has been devoured only by a Northern Nigerian. It is believed by the citizens that it is a strategy by the current government to keep power in the north.  Others complain that most head quarters of some government parastatal are in the north.

The truth is, due to the population of these people,  the educated tend to fight to be at the fore front of power so as to distribute the right portion of amenities to their people and keep it that way for a very long time. That is because they love their own; they are people centered.

In the same vain, the eastern part of the country, after my research in Enugu state which is the coal city of the Nation, out of all the people that comprise Enugu State as a whole, the Nsukka people tend to fight for power, with the belief that it is their right. This is because their population surpasses other communities in the state.

The Nsukka people are large in population and have the belief that they own Enugu state as a whole and as such, once an Nsukka person is in power in Enugu governance, he/she tends to please the Nsukka people by giving them jobs, amenities, as seen in the current Enugu government. 

Governance as a whole ought not be this way. Government is the government of the people not government of a group, community,  clan or family. That is why you see different groups fight for turns to serve their people because the previous government which was produced from a particular group decided to concentrate on developing his own group and neglecting the whole nation assigned to them as seen in River state, Anambra state and other states in Nigeria;  even in the Centre.

The Northern victory over Nigeria is not far fetched, they are people centered not group centered and that is a good example of what democracy stands for.

Nigerians should go back to school, study what governance is, the rudiments and then, return home to govern, knowing that Nigeria is comprised of 36 states and 770 local governments not 6 states and 200 local governments. 

I stand with democracy!
