The entire Nigeria is not as big as the state of Texas in America

Japan is a small country but the second richest country in the world.

Switzerland is the size of Abia and Enugu states combined but has a bigger GDP than Nigeria

It is never about the size of your land, its all about what you can do with what you have

Don’t mind these people. I feel ashamed for them sometimes when they are fighting over whose land mass is bigger. These people are stuck in 18th century mentality.

For your question in your last paragraph, Nigeria and in fact the whole of West Africa cannot afford to allow an Independent drug trafficking nation like Mexico around our borders.

Biafrans can get their land far away from West Africa and move there.
Shut your Mouth joor. As if all igbos are into drug trafficking.

Unfortunately land mass is not one of determinants in actualization of a country. The bolded is a misconception of elementary level. Lagos will collapse if Nigeria disintegrates.

Ok rank us according to our contribution to national prosperity and security, land mass with out adequate security is a scam... And bandits and bokoharamist are really making bad use of north land mass.. But again I ask why are fulani herdsmen going to everywhere to graze their cattle when they have the landmass, is it not greediness at its peak.. Or do they want to corner the rest of the landmass of this country.. We the southern part of this country should be united in other to resist this greedy folks

Serious question @bolded.

For the sake of clarity on population density these are Imo/Anambra boundary, Lagis/Ogun boundary, Oyo/Kwara boundary and Niger/Kwara boundary.

To compare you have to use same scaling and criteria.

You cannot use weather map for one, use mineral resource for another and then use precipitation map for next.

...your response would get good support if it were true that the five states, or the region in itself, is a respectable economic performer.

You must find some other index with which to brand SE, land and economy ranking work against you. Lagos state is a tiny state but economic giant. The whole SW region is the top income earner for Nigeria and also the top culturally diverse society, and in land size the region is the biggest in the South.

So Ibos need to define new brandings, economic or geographic does not work well in your favour.


Westerners has no contribution to the development of Lagos. The massive infrastructures built by FG makes it the center of business for now. Abuja, today, is another ec6oiwer house, what was the economic value of Abuja before it was made capital?


What infrastructures have your state government added after FG built

Roads
Government House
Airport
University
Stadiums
Bridges
Seaport

Etc

Minus Lagos and possibly Ogun, which state in the South West is economically viable enough to stand up to Imo, Anambra and Abia States?

Osun and Ekiti

Land mass is one economic mass is another...

But Niger State is enough to stand as a country with a huge land mass grin

Lagos state has the least land mass but is enough to sponsor the whole Nigeria budget as small as it is the billions or trillions coming out from there will develop the whole land mass of all Nigeria if there is no corruption.
So Niger state really big like that?

Thats secondary.

The primary issue is ....how many people that identify as Nigerians are truly Nigerians?
We are not breeding more than neighbouring countries but their population remained flat but ours grow exponentially.

Singapore is doing fine despite being just a city state, other places that depend on the Lagos port will be held to ransome if that happens.

All these northern land mass is just a breeding ground for terrorists. I prefer a very small, organized and well developed State/Country than large state/country which is very disorganized, underdeveloped and a breeding ground for terrorists and bandits.
