I agree with a lot of what Feyi has said. Nobody really cares that their food comes from the North or that their electronics come from the South. Many people suspend their ethnic and religious affiliations when it comes to trade.

As divided as the country may seem, the volume of trade between people has not diminished. The population of Igbo traders in Keffi where I live has never been on the decline at any point in my life time.

Boring old trade is probably the only route we have into keeping a stable and prosperous society.
