Nigeria today stands on wobbly legs, and what needs to be done to make the country to stand steady and strong is to go back to where the rain started beating the country in the modern day.
At independence in 1960, Nigeria was said to stand on a pivotal
tripod of East, West and North. The 1967-70 Nigeria-Biafra war ensured that the
North in alliance with the West defeated the East.
The oppressed minorities of course took sides with the victors
because nobody would ever want to be in the corner of losers.
That is a simple historical fact, and any other embellishments only exist to
serve expedience.
