In 2014, Nigeria will be 100 years after the amalgamation of 1916. Nigeria at 100! Where will it be? Read the words of the Late Sage, Chief Anthony Enahoro and share your opinions.

Quote"In 2014, just three years ahead, Nigeria will celebrate her centenary. Should it take a hundred years for Nigeria to attain democracy? The United States has issued us a warning about Nigeria's possible disintegration in 2015. But we must also warn ourselves of the ominous 2014. Year 2014 marks the centenary of Nigeria's amalgamation, an amalgamation underscored by negative indices of disunity, mutual hostility, selfishness, political immaturity, sinful accumulation of wealth by unpatriotic leaders, political godfatherism, ethnicity and primordial nationalism. All these negatives have acted as heavy stones tied to our heels. Tell me any country that has expended 100 years preparing a Nation-State but which has failed to achieve anything near it?"
