Igbo land is tiny.
Accept the fact.

Igbos can never rule Nigeria labour party have no ward structures in all the 8,700 wards in Nigeria.

Na land mass una wan face this week ?

I just de observe the pattern of propaganda some folks keep using cause of this coming election..

If the south east land mass no big , what's up all the worry ?

South east is too small for all this attention na , can't we have small peace ?
Every week south east is this , south south east is that, una no de tire ?

Na my south eastern bro I de blame Sha

Cause them de give some kind post too much relevance!!
The annoying part of this whole shit is that the ones bringing up this tribal shit have never stepped foot outside the shores of there region not to talk of the country!!

I have never for once come across any Nigerian here in NC talking about tribe this or that , and I'm sure it's same thing among Nigerians in other countries of the world !!

South South and Middle belt big pass South east yet na the small one una de attack

Is that not bullying

666Advocate:



Igbo land is tiny.
Accept the fact.

No body is arguing with you but accept to that they are more prosperous than your region

Labour party don't have structures that can pay the people in all village well like PDP and APC have.
Igbos can never rule Nigeria.

666Advocate:



Igbo land is tiny.
Accept the fact.

STOP BEING A SLOWMILL,the fact that they are massive in size is real but are you accepting that they are not productive like the'' tiny state'' ,you can run now a hound dog but do you accept the productivity fact??,which do you prefer?,why are people running to those tiny ,productive England,UAE and Germany but avoids the big for nothing SUDAN,Mali and Greenland??

That guy 666Advocate is Ijaw.
Have you seen any Ijaw begging with plates on the streets before?
Instead its Igbos you see begging on the streets like others.

You don't even know what landlocked is.
Landlocked means not being able to access the oceans without passing other peoples territories.

Dumbest comment of the century award goes to this post

Oh no! Don't start this.

Lol
This stuff comes up every 3 months on nairaland

Felimax:
Oh no! Don't start this.

why?

Will anybody give you award because of your size of land?

Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria but it is the most populated and most important state in Nigeria

Switzerland is just the size of Abia and Enugu States put together and has a population of less than 10 million people, but Switzerland GDP is bigger than that of Nigeria

Its never about the size of land, its what you can do with the land, no matter its size

Ebi2233:


Agree that you are of the dot circle.

I AM NOT AN IBO MAN BUT A YORUBA STATING THE FACT.
You need to let go of your unwise bitterness.

Lagos is the smallest in land size, but many times richer than most states.

Anambra is second smallest, but with top 3 HDI.

What is the purpose of this thread again?

Igbo land is in Africa, west Africa for that matter

Igboland is not only in South East but some parts of South South(Rivers state, Cross Rivers State, Delta state, Edo state) and North Central (Kogi state and Benue state). So your calculation is incorrect until you can be able to calculate it correctly then we can now argue with you.

In the end you showed you just opened this thread because you are a tribalist and looking for ways to mock igbos. Nigeria is bigger than Switzerland, czech, norway, sweden, denmark and all other countries but how far with nigeria compared to those countries? Nonsense

Transcriber:
why?

Cos regardless, we are all Nigerians.
Our lands or region should not define us. Our values should.

I don't think he was talking about Igbo land. Rather he was talking about South East. Because if he talks about Igbo and think Igbo is only the South East, then he's a powerful fool

You don’t need to remind them nah

After wasting so much resources on this one in the name of acquiring education, this is the end product, comparing nations by their land size ,rather than human per capita income,God the kind of brains we churns out every year in the name of university graduates, one begins to ponder what the future holds for us as a nation.

What is the importance of this topic now?
What are you doing with land mass? Are you going to eat the land when the smallest state you listed there isn't the least developed?
Some of you have serious mental issues.

I really feel sorry for NL.

It's now a place that breeds and spreads hate freely.

NL wasn't like this in 2010 when I joined.

Seun should do something about this cancer eating up this forum.

Ebi2233:
All Igbo land is not even up to Kogi State and they are still landlocked.

Just like Switzerland

Nobody is arguing the fact that the whole of SE is as big as Kogi in terms of land mass.

Why will people want to take advantage of this information to spread their bile and toxicity?
