Truly, uniting the two protectorates was a big mistake in Nigeria. Quite frankly, the difference between both protectorates was huge. The rivalry between them was no surprise. But the biggest error was the fact that after the amalgamation, both protectorates still continued to function as distinct provinces. If one political unit had emerged, that would probably have made the two protectorates to have a reason to work together, which could have perhaps led to better relationship between them.

Exactly buddy, the difference was very big. Even till now, both regions have very dissimilar way of living which has ultimately affected their relationship with others. Well, I guess we should all work towards a better Nigeria.
