Food for thought by David O Ani
''If western region was a country, at the level they were going through Awo's policies in several fronts, they would have achieved medical and pharmaceutical breakthrough that will make Bill Gate aids unheard of in their clime...also, the

phytochemical analysis of their herbs that would have eliminated toxicity and ensure proper dosage would have been achieved, "tay tay"
If Eastern region was a country,they would have joined Vietnam in delivering medical equipments like PPE, face mask etc to US to fight Covid-19.

....via Zik's blue prints already being implemented to the later by Okpara that made the region one of the fastest growing economies, they would have ensured that Aba, Onitsha and Nnewi is counted among the 30 most industrialized cities.
If Northern region was a country, the

groundnut pyramid, cotton and solid mineral would have been so developed that industries needing these primary products would have flocked and made the region one of the highest agro based industrial hub in the whole world.
We lumped them,foolish competition and conquest ensues,

potentials abandoned for foolish competition and identity politics..they became uninterested in growth but rather interested in sharing proceeds from little growths generated.The fight for sharing formulas bred a dangerous thieving and demonically corrupt elites that are

entirely useless to the nation and citizens.
So, when you see me writing about a contraption that may never thrive, resist the temptation of flaunting you half baked patriotism in my face.
I don't like wasting resources, I have seen a nation that wasted potentials for decades

and nothing will change and you want me not to be angry on our insistence to keep fooling around?
Shift!''
