Is Hausa or Fulani territory only in the North West or North East?

Is Yoruba territory only in the SouthWest?

If the Yoruba parts of Kwara (2/3 by senatorial zone) is included as a state of its own in the SW, and same is done to the Yoruba part of Kogi (1/3 by senatorial zone), then the SW would have 8 states.

Do the same to the Hausa-Fulani parts of Niger State, Plateau, and Taraba states all in the North Central, and the North West and North East will have new states to raise their tally.

So even if the Asaba, Aniocha and Kwale parts of Delta (1/3 of Delta by senatorial zone) are included in the SE as a state of its own, the SE will still lag behind other regions

The Igbo man would still complain and will still remain miserable no matter how you dice this issue.

What you don't have, you simply don't have.

you may not be too far away from the truth sha.

States are not based based on land mass,but on population. Lagos is like half the size of the smallest Igbo state, Abia state, but the same Lagos has a population of half the entire North.

Idealy, Anioma state should be the 6th Igbo state but powers that be have refused it. Anyway, whenever regionalism returns, we Igbos are going to dissolve all 5 states and end 'divide and rule'


hold it right there......lagos have the population no doubt..but half the entire North? are u kidding me, did u know d population of Kano alone?....

Lagos is estimated to have a population that is close to 25 million people. The entire North has a conservative population of 50 Million

You are using Census figures that were highly discredited and rejected. There is no way Kano can be populated than Lagos

Re: Why Do South East Have Only 5 States? by Ngozi123(f): 6:58pm On Jul 20, 2016
I wonder why some non-Igbos felt that their input was needed in this thread. From reading the op, Adure4ever seemed to allude to the injustices that have been handed out to the Igbos over the last few decades. I didn't see any mention of Yoruba or Hausa anywhere in her op so I don't understand why some people are trying to turn this into a tribal bashing thread. If you are a Yoruba person and you feel that the Yorubas have been persecuted or mistreated by Nigeria in any way then feel free to make your own thread to voice your concerns, likewise for an Hausa, Bini person etc.

This is the exact reason why this country cannot move forward; whenever someone speaks out against injustice, rather than try to help that person, people use it as an opportunity to complain about their problems.

Okay.. I believe you aren't an illiterate- so, let's do a little math.

You say I'm "always online" right?

Now:

You, Ada, have these stats:

Time registered: November 24, 2015.

Time spent online: 1 month & 13 days.

It means you have spent an average of 1/8 months of your time since registering on the forum online.

In terms of percentage, that is approximately 13% of your time ONLINE.

Me on the other hand, here are my stats:

Time registered: March 24, 2008.

Time spent online: 6 months & 13 days.

This means I've spent an average of 6/100 months of my time since registering on the forum online.

In terms of percentage, that is simply 6% of my time ONLINE!



Now Ada, place those figures side by side and think about your life for a second. Tell yourself the truth about who "spends all day on the forum" and needs the "5,000 stipend". wink

To put it simply, you have spent over twice as much time as I have online!

Can you see how smart you appear now? grin

Na so una go just carry anger dey embarrass unaselves upandan. cheesy
