States are not based on landnass but population. Lagos is so small that just Abia state is almost twice as big as It. So why are you not calling for the scrapping of Lagos state?


If I had the power, as an Igbo man,I would scrap the entire 5 Igbo States and merge the entire Delta-Igbo people, the entire River Igbo, the Igbos of the lower Benue (The Umu-Ezeokha people) and possibly the Abi people of Cross River into " The greater Igbo confederation" and give ever local government in it full resource control and autonomy with increased economic links with all the minorities of the South Nigeria with the exception of Edo state. The rest of Nigeria can carry on with this wasteful 'unitary' system they are practicing in the shape of states.

That is your opinion, and you are fully entitled to it. wink

I agree, Owerri is far ahead of Ibadan, in the number of brothels and prostitutes. cheesy cheesy grin
There is NO SINGLE manufacturing industry in Owerri. When you mention Owerri, the only thing that comes to mind is HOTEL, BROTHELS, prostitutes and WHETHERAL road. Owerri is a single road state capital. cheesy cheesy

Being landlocked has never been a problem, Countries like Switzerland and Austria are landlocked but each of those countries are far richer than Nigeria. The important thing is to have access to the sea and it has been proved that Azumini blue river in Obuaku, Abia state is even closer to the Athlantic Ocean than Porthacourt and a river port can be built. There is even a river port in Ontisha. Another thing with this SE you mentioned is that Igbo's are far larger than it. Today, there are 7 Igbo Governors but 5 Igbo States, how do you think that is? SE dies not mean anything, what matters is the "greater Igbo confederation" made up of all Igbos, Igbo speaking people and Igboids. That area is one of the most economically viable area in Nigeria.

Rivers people will not allow their rivers to be used without compensation.....and on what basis other than being landlocked are you comparing Switzerland and Austria with the dream of Biafra.

The entire SW. There's nothing progressive or worth mentioning in that region. Aside from being leeches, there's nothing anyone get from SW. In fact, I'm even in support of pushing southwest to Benin republic to be with the rest of their unprogressive people in that country. I totally support getting rid of southwest anytime, any day.

Who the Bleep wants a group of ppl whos only achievement is fabricating figures in the media while their region looks like a piece of shits with hungry, begging community. In addition, even their Lagos, the only progressive from that is the billions they collect from oil companies they snakily stole and forced over their. Hell one company migrated their HQ back to River state and in a year of one of their own becoming MD, the mofo is planning on returning it back to Lagos. Does that make sense? I swear I'll sign ANYTHING to get rid of Southwest.
