By Dr. Jideofor Adibe | Nasarawa, Nigeria | November 3, 2017 – Nigerians love buzzwords – slogans that are repeated frequently enough, (and imbued with assumed values), that they begin to sound like established facts or self-evident truths. One of the favourite mantras in Nigeria today is the notion of the ‘detribalized’ Nigerian.
