I have been so much disturbed on the amount of hate existing among Nigerians. And it continues to grow day by day. Where I live, I see how they live in unity and love but my country is exactly the opposite. It really breaks my heart so much to an extent that I feel like crying most times. On Nairaland here, there can never exist a thread without regions spewing their hatred for another even when the thread is all about International affairs.
Nairalanders, what do you think is the cause of this intense hate and how can we retract to live in unity and love again?.

Cos pastors preaches more of prosperity than love and "my church is better than urs" mentality.

Leadership failure. Even the dullard at the helm of affairs is the head of all hate in this country.

You said complete rubbish. Why are you like this? So Muslims hating among themselves is because my church is better than yours? Killings in Southern Kaduna and rise in bandits is because my church is better than yours? You lack wisdom. Note: I'm an atheist.

To the Op. The reason is because our politicians enrich themselves and maintain country by ensuring we are divided. If we unite, they know we can stand together against their nonsense. For this reason, they spread hate along tribal and religious lines to keep us divided. The sad thing is that they drive this hate using young people
