Nationalism

There was never a thing such as "Nigerian Nationalism". Nationalism in Nigeria was entirely a contraption of the South.

Maybe there is a more accurate term, but that is the term the relevant literature uses.

Unbalanced

This Entire article is a polemic against the North. further more the author keeps on giving us he's/her's opinion without any sort of citations. I suggest the entire article be overhauled.

Plagiarism?

The section "Influence of the Christian Missions" (and possible more) is a direct copy from the site [1]. I'm not sure how it should be formatted, but at the moment, the formatting makes it look like original research (which it isn't).

This is part of Helen Chapin Metz, ed. Nigeria: A Country Study, Washington: GPO for the Library of Congress, 1991. While such country studies are available for use, as they are in the public domain as a government-prepared document, I would agree with you that it should be credited.
