Illusion Of A North Dominated Rule

  Let me shatter the glass houses that most Nigeria's Southerners lives on the illusion of a North dominated rule. Many southerners believed the north has ruled Nigeria more than any region and even calling for division since the north has dominated them in terms of leadership.
