To think that a super country as Israel is sitting on a land mass as low as 22,072 km² still baffles me. Here we pride ourselves on landmass & population.

Yet they don't see enough land in the north for their cows but want the little one in the east,

Nigeria's 36 States & FCT Ranked In Order Of Land Mass: Photos

The entire North is grinding with abject poverty as a result of overpopulation. The Landmass is not productive because the marauding herders have made the enormous landmass so useless that if care is not taken, people in the North will turn to carnivores in less than 50yrs to come.
Human capital is what matters. Posting this, and assuming you have advanced the interest of the north simply goes to show the level of education of the North.

Land mass is very important, for those who have differing opinion. If not that our people now support mediocrity and laziness, the north was back then an haven for agricultural produce. Today, laziness and terrorism has taken over a large chunk of that area. God help us

The North have large land mass but still expect the 6 smallest states to feed all of them.
We should imbibe true federalism if we truelly want to progress as a country.

North large landmass - great agricultural potential yet they can't exploit it cus of oil. Over 67.6 percent of food we eat is imported.

West- Small landmass - Good commerce n industry cus of Lagos and Ogun =tax. Small oil cus of Ondo- Not as developed as it should. Cus the money they are getting is being shared with the rest of the country. Potential- Cash crops esp Cocoa

South South- the heart of Nigeria,- Oil, industries yet they are still not developed as it should, cus the get to share everything with the rest of the country. Potential - Cash crops especially Palm tree

East- Smaller landmass - commerce and industry plus a little bit of oil, and the largest reserve of natural gas in the country, tax especially on breweries. They are still not developed as they ought to, cus the little they get is being shared with rest of the country. Potential = cash crops Palm trees, Cashew trees and Cocoa

The question?
Who or what region is the rest of the country?

With the way the Northern population is growing, one male having multiple wives, 12 children in one household (most die before they reach adulthood) if Southern Nigeria wants to secure it's future (so you can go ahead and do your family planning in peace) zoning on presidency should be in our constitution. The next Southern president should make it the first thing he does.

this is because of your apetite for foreign foods, even fish that spends as much as four years in ice block you rush it as if your life depends on it. thank God Buhari has closed the border last last.

the North takes advantage of its land mass for agriculture and it presently feeds the nation.

The slogan of Benue state from the North is ' Food basket of the nation'

This is only one state

. Yeah lost groundnut pyramid and insecurity. You’re right.

Good thing he did, but As he closed the borders what is happening? Are you still buying the same things cheaper? No it has increased this is to show you that Nigerians(farmers) are not willing to up their production level. They will prefer to work in the office than on the field

Southwest cash crop- cashew, Cocoa, kola nut etc, anything will grow in southwest /entire South the problem is, we are not ready to farm

Not being regionalistic, but majority of those large one up there are just big for nothing..

If the smallest can be the most productive while the largest can be the most unproductive, we can come to the conclusion, the bigger the ******

Their productivity has little or nothing to do with the effort of the state and citizens but due to the ports and the attention that the federal government has on the state. Mind you, if federal government should look into reactivating PH and akwa ibom ports and further extend the gesture to the proposed kogi port, the economic activities in lag will drastically reduced to the level you will never expect.

Closing Border is not the issue, capacity to produce is important. Poverty and illiteracy is in the North. So how can the core north give what is does not have.
The south west and east will be the most beneficiary of the action of Mr. President.

the old Midwest is bigger than south eastern states combined.(delta and Edo).

Ironically they are even more developed than the eastern states even with all the bragging.

Where is developed in Delta and Edo with Asaba and Benin as their capital?
