Which are the middlebelt states??

Spicycat:
Did i just read "Coming to the Niger Delta, they're more developed and educated than the Middlebelt "

@islayer what did you smoke this afternoon? How did you come to this conclusion, what are the criteria used before arriving to this ridiculous statistics, there's only one tribe i Nigeria that speak with such mundane statistics, what a funny fellow

parcifal:
Middle belt, as you purported, are not as united in totality. It consists the highest number of people from different ethnic background. Nasarawa state alone can boast of over fifteen different ethnic groups whom, to my knowledge are not Working for the interest of the other. So if they should be made a country, there surely will still be internal power tussles. With proper planning they can survive through agriculture but I doubt that because they are land locked. Niger delta can survive more because aside oil, they have other States like delta state that can support them through agricultural exports. remember they have sea ports.

All I know is that the SE will be worse than South Sudan if we break up.

kayfra:
Both of them are not viable.

Tiv and Jukun crisis
Ijaw and Urhobo and Itshekiri crisis
Fulani crisis
Etc


They are the reason we still have one Nigeria

Sammy07:
None of them...
Both regions have huge differences within them.



Benue State, Plateau State, Taraba State, Niger State, Kogi State, Nassarawa State, Kwara State, Adamawa State, and the Federal Capital Territory.

The Fulani can never lord it over others in a Middlebelt country. Don't you know the make up of the Middlebelt?


And intercommunal crises based on petty squabbles like land ownership is not strong enough. In their own country they can discuss proper modalities like boundary adjustments and all that. I'm talking of internal power tussles that can destabilize a country.

kayfra:


The most organized tribe in the middle belt are the Fulani. They still have that emirate structure to lean on.

TooMuchStuff:

Kinda like the idea wallahi...! Even though am more of the mix than anyone else.

But it's never gonna work. Old wounds always leave behind old scars.....!

In middlebelt and South south have three things in common Christianity, Education, Rich Mineral Resources.
Also common enemies of Fulanis, Islam, Sharia and associated trademark of Poverty.

U are joking right

Hahaha. It's okay please.

Was just looking at his comment

Forming a stable and successful nation has nothing to do with mineral resources. If that where true, then Japan will still be a third world nation. It also has nothing to do with geographic location ie lack of access to the seas and ocean. Of that were true, then Switzerland will still be a developing country.
All that is required in forming a stable nation is the 'Will' to form a govt that reflects the wishes of the people.
If a nation is born and the people have no impute on how their govt will be formed then that nation will never be stable - Case in point Nigeria.
It's very critical that the people of a new born nation be involved in the set up of the govt to avoid domination and concentration of power by a people. For a nation to be truely stable, the govt must be design in such a way that power is balance across all people. A govt where power is balanced across all people in the geographic location is a democratic govt.
A govt that is inclusive, democratic and appreciates differences and diversity of the people will go a long way to establish a stable country.
A govt that is seperated from religion. Seperation of state and religion is a must for a stable nation.
A govt that provides a level playing ground for all people irrespective of their race, ethnicity or religion to grow, develop and advance at their own pace.

If Middle Belt or people from other regions can come together achieve the above, then these nations will be the most stable and prosperous countries ever to emarge out of Africa.

saaron:
There's nothing like fulani emirate in Middle Belt.

iSlayer:




He does not have the slightest clue of what he's saying. This is someone who is fond of attacking other groups.

You don't know what you are saying, the Fulani's are visitors and their numbers count to nothing.
