Nigerian Actor Gideon Okeke took to his Instagram to share an interesting post on what he feel will make Nigeria truly one. He expressed that Nigerians are not willing to let go of the coattails of tribalism, his post also suggested that there is a need for "state of Origin" to be abolished for National peace to reign.
His caption read,
"One Nigeria ! One Nigeria !!
But We're not quite willing to let go of the coattails of TRIBALISM.
Even AD commercials/Radio Jingles are culpable of passing subliminal messages that are nuanced in ways that make one wonder if there are :
- 3 Nigerias or
- 187 Others or
- Just 1 Nigeria.
If You still regard your neighbor with these derrogatives :
- Omo-Ibo ,
- Ofemmanu,
- Nyammiri...
You might be RACIST. Or sold to BIGOTRY.
There's a thing or two to learn from a small country called RWANDA.
Imagine a policeman stopping you for routine checks and he pops the question :
" What State are you from"...
Oga !! What purpose does that question really serve?
I'D LOVE TO LEARN FROM YOU TOO.
THOUGHTS ANYONE ?"
