“One thing you cannot take away from Nigeria is our resilience and this resilience comes from the fact that most Nigerians want to remain Nigerians.
I think what most people are against is perceived injustice or imbalance but the most beautiful thing is that most people want one, big Nigeria than a fragmented Nigeria,” Onyema said.
