The extremely ethnically and regionally divided African nation of Nigeria is once again up in arms. Ethnic divides have been felt in this country since its creation and colonial times. With the reelection of incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan, serious riots and violence has erupted in the northern part of the country. It is estimated that over 100 people have been injured so far, and it has been reported that the violence has escalated to the use of guns. With representative and gubernatorial elections to come in the near future, there are many concerns if more violence will happen.
