Nigeria on the verge of division?



Nnamdi Kanu, the same man that called Nigeria a 'zoo' is still agitating for a sovereign independent State of Biafra. 47 years after the Civil War, and there is still tension in the region.

Kanu was arrested in October 2015 on counts of treason. He spent more than a year-and-a-half in Kuje prison, Abuja (FCT) awaiting trial. He was later released in April 2017 on bail, after which he return to southeastern Nigeria where thousands are rallying behind him.

A country battling with multiple threats such as domestic terrorism, political instability, and recession should not be further burdened with threats of division.

Nnamdi Kanu is currently speaking for the secession of Biafra. He has been spotted amid crowds, holding a mic and speaking passionately about the incompetence of the Nigerian government and the actualization of Biafra.

The question remains, how will a possible Biafra secession help Biafra or Nigeria?
