how come all the fulanis are not in the same zone of north.... Why is ndoki in abia and rivers, why is opobo in South South, also asaba

Officialgarri:
We learn everyday and today, I've chosen to be your tutor.

The geopolitical zones are not determined based on geographical locations. The zones are actually classified based on similar ethnicity.

The SE states for example, have a common language that binds them, which is Igbo language.
The SW is Yoruba .... et cetera

So I hope you are clear now?

Semi educated General Abacha introduced the geopolitical zone hogwash and it has no constitutional backing , Nigeria recognizes just 36 state and FCT which was a product of western region, eastern region and northern region recognized by our constitiution before Aguiyi Ironsi and Professor Ben Uwuanbuzuke abolished the constitution with a decree

as it stand Nigeria needs a sovereign conference to discuss many issue,

Blue3k:
You guys are worried about this why? It would be like US citizens worrying sbout how federal government classifies the regions.

PicLtd:


Who abolished the regions and created states? Gowon and Awolowo.

solmusdesigns:


After Aguiyi abolished regional system for a unitary one it resulted to gowon's simplification of the unit

PicLtd:


Olodo, the regions were still existing after Aguiyi was neutralized, there were regionial military governors when he was killed.

Gowon on the advise of Awolowo abolished the regions and created states.
Never forget to tell that part of the story anytime you attempt to revel us with your usual yoruba propaganda of pre-civil war revisionism.

Today yoruba are biggest criers of regionalism that Gowon and Awo abolished and killed.

stop talking bunkum I never said Gowon never created new unit in the new federal system both Agiuyi centralized the command, and trying to pin Awolowo the finance minister is funny

GamalNasser:


Then it shouldn't have been labelled South East But Igbo East na

Blackking98:

Lol. Keep it calm and constructive bro no insult. I know it looks absurd, but what's the point of changing the names of the regions or redrawing borderlines, for one we here in the SS wouldn't want to have an old eastern region again, many minority groups in the North would also not want to be grouped with the core North anymore, outside going back to the old nothern region, Eastern region and Western region which won't be acceptable, what do u suggest should be done?

cruxgemmata:
Google educate and enlighten me please.

Why is it that after giving cameroon bakassi peninsula, our dear map of Nigeria is still the same. It hasnt changed.

US is migrants vs west indies country, Nigeria has over 100 ethnicity

gidgiddy:


And which common language binds the SS?

Kinematics:


Your head dey pain you.

FrLukas:
Lol.

I have always thought so too.

Igboland is not even in the east of the country. The land of the rising sun is a wrong connotation.

More like the land in the cup of the South.

Taraba and Adamawa are in the east of the country.

justtoodark:


actualy if you think over it,biafra mean nothing....

FrLukas:


Well, I wouldn't know about that since I don't speak the language.

But I once heard an old Igbo lady express disapproval that the name Biafra was formed from the words Bia furu.

What Bia furu means , I don't know and I didn't ask.
