Political will is only reason. There's nothing stopping them just get more chairs. The north isn't some big homogeneous group. There are many minority tribes that make up the area. Hausa is just the lingua Franka there.

What does the South have in common?

At least in the North they have a common language which they all speak.

The south has common geographical interests and things like fulani herdsmen to worry about

To the South I ask: Why would the North take you seriously, when you don't take yourself seriously enough to form a Southern Governors Forum?

Just tell me why.

Thank you OP for pushing this topic. Our Southern governors should get serious with this. If we have to donate funds and resources for this to happen, I am ready. Let us donate to them to make it happen.

Of course there's a Southern Governors' Forum. It seems like someone creates this kind of thread at least once a year. A southern governors' forum exists, it's just that they don't meet as often as they used to.

I'll re-post what I posted on an earlier thread.

I just initiated a movement called the Southern Governors Forum Lobby Group on another thread. We intend to visit all Southern Governors to lobby and sensitize them on the need to form a common forum.

I appointed you deputy leader/organizer of the group. We will be honoured if you accept. You have the organizational ability to make us Nairalanders walk the talk on this issue.

Check your Mentions to see the link, Sir.

There's a lot of igbo culture being promoted within the igbo-British community. Have a look at the channel.
