Why Nigeria Should Have Never Been A Country – Actress Laura Adebisi [Video]

British-Nigerian actress, Laura Lake Adebisi has sparked controversy by stating that Nigeria should never have been a country.

In a viral video, Laura Adebisi argued that the stark ideological differences between the North and South are enough to question Nigeria’s existence as a unified nation.

She accused the British government of empowering the Nigerian government to suppress Biafra’s attempt to secede, solely to maintain control over the country’s resources.

“The footprints of colonialism are over Nigeria. Nigeria should have never been a country! The difference in ideology from the northern side to the southern side is insane.

“When the Eastern side tried to secede and form Biafra, the ex-colonialists [Britain] were like, no, we don’t want that. So they instead empower Nigeria to crush that country.

“They were like, we want you guys to stay like this so we can continue to pillage and take all of your resources.

“So the footprints of colonialism are still all over Nigeria. It’s in the shape of the country. It’s on the map,” she said.
