“If this country splits, I’ll leave Northern Nigeria” Northerner says he can’t live in a country made up of only northerners

A man from Northern Nigeria has said that he cannot live in the North if Nigeria splits and the North becomes a country of its own. 

He shared this in reaction to an X user who claimed northern Nigeria would have been more developed if it was a country on its own. 

Disagreeing with the original poster, the X user wrote: “Wallaahi once una split this country, I’ll leave northern Nigeria. 

“I might write a poem and you guys will call me an infidel and declare my blood halal. 

“A preacher mentioned that a terrorist is better than ‘dan bid’ah—in your same northern Nigeria oo. 

“Somalia pro max.” 

He added that if other regions of Nigeria don’t accept him, he’d rather move to Niger Republic than live in a country made up of only the North. 

Some of his followers from the North also agreed with him.
