All You Need To Know About The New Map Of Nigeria And States- Nairalanders! by oskaaay(m): 2:24pm On Aug 20, 2014 |
National conference in its final report had recommended the creation of 18 additional states to bring the number of states in the country to 54. Map: Courtesy of Premium Times The recommendation was a way of meeting the “yearnings and aspirations of the people.” Although the proposal did not sit well with all, especially the Northern delegates, a series of consultations led to an unanimous decision on July 3rd to create the new states for Nigeria. The newly approved states, according to the map are: Apa from Benue Edu from Niger Kainji from Kebbi state Katagum from Jigawa Savannah from Borno Amana from Adamawa Gurara from Kaduna Ghari from Kano Etiti from South East Aba from Abia Adada from Enugu Njaba from Anambra Imo, Oil River from Rivers state Anioma from Delta state Ogoja from Cross River State Ijebu from Ogun State Ose state from Edo New Oyo State from the present Oyo State.

If all these states end up created, I wonder how they would survive a post-oil Nigeria. It is time we acknowledged the bitter truth that states creation is not the solution to our socio-economic problems. What is the difference between the Nigeria of three regions and the Nigeria of 36 states? |

Instead of these folks to make effective recommendations on how to tackle corruption since the govt of the day doesn't see it as the nations problem, they're all about state creation. Our number 1 problem is corruption, kill it and the nation will progress to greater heights! |
