You missed the fact.

2006 Population Census (the most recent official population census in Nigeria)

Lagos State: 9,013,534

Southeast Nigeria: 16,381,729

The difference is more than Ondo and Ekiti States combined hence Southeast is more populated than Lagos, Ondo and Ekiti States put together.

Is there any comparison let alone putting Lagos population above the entire Southeast as the author stupidly stated?

This is one of the most ridiculous assumptions in ethno-socio-political games in Nigeria today.

2006, 10 years ago?

Do you know how many people migrate to Lagos from other parts of the world including the south east?

Once again, argue with fact and figures.

Did you or anyone conduct another population census in Nigeria in the past ten years that gave Lagos State the fabricated population exceeding Southeast?

Has migration doubled the population of USA and Britain in ten years?

It will interest you to note that birth rate in Southeast is in ratio of 2:1 compared to Lagos State

You think migration to Lagos can make up for the balance? No, not at all, the difference is widening by the day and not contrasting - advantage, Southeast.

Tell that blind statistician to stop spreading inconsistent data on the web for enlightened public.

Current Lagos population is estimated to range between 17-20Million people.

You can't hide this, its all over the internet. Sorry eh

Now, tell me what will be the population growth of Southeast after the last 10 years (2006 - 2016)?

If Nigeria population is estimated to be 187 million today, an increase of 56% in the last ten years then Southeast estimate will be?

16,381,729 + 9,173,771 (56% increase) = 25,555,500

Pray tell me how your 17,000,000 or even 20,000,000 is anything near or equals 26,000,000 approx. estimated population of Southeast let alone surpass it?

We are not all dunce. Just throw away the concocted fabricated statistics on No.18. It is all for socio-political purposes.

Can you postulate reasons why Lagos's population would have grown since 2006 while the SE's would remain unchanged?

Simple:

People move out from the east elsewhere for greener pastures.

And Lagos is like a market, it attracts both locals and foreigners

You know the truth but just want to joke around, I answered this already. Most tribes and foreigners troop into Lagos daily and permanently.

The East get to witness temporary migration during Christmas and new yam festival.

Because easterners prefer going outside the region to make ends meet. (Most).
