Following Omoyele Sowore’s revelation that Nnamdi Kanu remains in detention because some South-East politicians fear his release could affect their political ambitions, debates about Nigeria’s unity intensified online. Amid discussions, one user asked mockingly, “Was Nigeria a country before?” — implying that Nigeria has never truly functioned as a nation. Such a comment reflects deep-seated frustration and disillusionment with the state of governance but also fuels division and resentment. While many Nigerians share concerns about leadership and fairness, questioning the very existence of the country only deepens disunity rather than promoting solutions that could strengthen the nation.
