I joke with my south-east governor friends that the whole of five states of south-east can fit into Kaduna two and the half times - El-Rufai

El-Rufai who recalled how he will always joke with his Governor friends from the South-East region on how the whole of five states of the south-east can fit into Kaduna state, two and the half times, added that there is difference between security in headlines and security in facts.
He said

I have said this many times. SE is so small, and the region has no chance. It is too tiny. The way forward is partnership with others. I remember an Ijaw man told me neatly that they are way more than Ibos are. I kinda think that SE shouldn't have been really a major tribe. They should have merged with more to form a unified team. But I guess Zik moved them ( the tiny region) to the status before independence, and it is presently hirting cos the game is a game of number. Eeeyah. But ibos have not realised this. I even read someone say Israel is tinier than Nigeria, but progressive. Israel and Nigeria arent competing together to have a commong president, so it is a terrible comparison. Many still dont understand this. Na so dem ibos go dey best their chests around. The reality is just in front of them. Wow!

Comments I have read in this thread show Ibos have not seen this reality, i really think they will stay like 100 years more before they really realise this. Wow..

You sound very stupid...

Which Israel is this one talking about? It is not Israel Atanda or Israel Adesanya... The tiny nation of Israel has one of the highest per capital income in the world. Israel is extremely well developed in tbe education, health and technology sectors. Are you okay at all to have said Israel is a poor country? U no Normal I swear. In that region, no nation is richer than Israel.
That's to tell you the kind of people we have here. That guy's know nothing about any other place except his region and the vast empty land mass. If not how can a grown up man be saying Isreal is being fed?

You see dat green dot, na Lesotho o. Like Lesotho like SE, shikini landlocked with near barren intra-economy.

But an average man fro SE is rich while an average man from the North is poor. Gate men.


Why Lesotho is a poor country?

Unemployment is also one of the major causes of poverty in Lesotho.

The lack of opportunities for earning has led to some families going without income and being reliant on subsistence farming, however, this often leaves them open to the threats outlined above and, as such, further decline into poverty.

The state of Israel can fit into Nigeria 100 times yet Israel is more powerful than Nigeria 100 times. It is not by size my friend.

Luxembourg, one of the richest European nation can fit into Kaduna 400 times.
Why does such a tiny country have only rich people and a big State like Kaduna produces mainly street beggers? Not a very smart statement from El-Rufai

Then again, Lagos being the smallest state in Nigeria by landmass can fit into Kaduna 20 times, does that mean that Kaduna is better than Lagos?? Because northerners keep running out of Kaduna and coming to Lagos to do their Almajiri street begging. Why didn’t they remain in their state, since it’s so big ?

Finally, the United Kingdom is just a little bigger than Borno State. Yet, the UK is 1 billion times better than the entire Nigeria in a ramifications.

The point is not landmass but productivity. Yes, the north has landmass, but 99% of those lands are wastelands, infertile lands where they can’t even graze their cows. Since they have to run to the East, West and South for RUGA.

Let's not allow el-rufai lack of sense to make us reason like him,let no one deceive you, land mass is an asset,infact some of the most powerful countries in the world has a massive land mass,the top 3, USA, China,and Russia are massive nations by size,others like India,Brazil are also big in size,the problem here is when you have the size which is supposed to be an asset yet you are useless and unproductive, then the size no longer counts.

Guys please correct me if I am wrong, the most civilized towns in Kaduna state is the state capital and Zaria city. Others are not developed. Guys you all need to travel to northern states, large area of their lands are inhabited. All these attacks on eastern region us just envy and a way to steal the oil and gas wealth of the eastern region through intimidation. Funny people.

You have almost 600likes and will definitely get higher.

The issue is that you and everyone who liked your post completely missed the point. The number of people who think like you did makes it convincing that Nigerian educational decay is the reason for our backwardness.

This is the summary of the entire comment by El Rufai.
To cover that kind of area with 11,000 policemen is almost impossible.

He made a point and you misread it apart from the fact that it contained a joke or an exaggeration of facts.

The entire south east is about 42,000km² while Kaduna state alone is 46,000km². Meanwhile, the governor said Kaduna is 2½ times south east which is not true, that means he can only be joking.

But the point he made is still valid, if Kaduna has 11,000 police as a state, assuming all states have same, south east with that small area will have 5times more police.

That means there is no way police in Kaduna can achieve close to what the ones in South east can achieve.

Have a think, all the biggest states of Nigeria have serious security problems. Niger, Borno, Taraba, Kaduna are first 4. In the first 12, only Bauchi, Adamawa and Kwara have little security but the rest 9 states have serious security issues. Why that is, because people can move undetected using the large land area.

If Israel was as big as Nigeria, i assure you, they cant defend themselves the way they do.

Meanwhile, the guy was talking about security and guys are ranting up and down.

You are very right. These I rarely comment or reply anyone on nairaland. Honestly we have kids who are admission seekers chasing clouts here. You read some comments and you feel awkward.

How on earth will some just spill that nonsense? Israel that is developing rapidly in the area of warfare and yet maintain a stable economy. They have the best and most dedicated secret service in the world ( Mossad )..

Can't you see it's because of these almajiri born to tile who never went to school and academically sound that took up power are the reason why Nigeria is not moving forward. You need to take education serious in order to know your left from your right.

Make una pray very hard that Nigeria should not divide oo. If not, the entire North will be worst than Somalia.
You guys are so so backward in terms of

* Human capital development
* Education
* Orientation
* Development etc.

Give room for people who have what it takes to lead the country to the promised land.
Not quota system education, appointment etc.

Most Nigerians I spoke with want Ibos to leave. They are tired of sharing the same country with Ibos,
