All 36 States Of Nigeria Were Created By Northerners, Why? by gidgiddy: 10:08am On Mar 15, 2023
Why is it that all 36 States in Nigeria were created by Northerners? Why is it that no Southerner created any state?

In 1967, Lt Col Yakubu Gowon abolishes the 4 Regions Nigeria had and creates 12 States

In 1976, General Murtala Mohammed creates 7 more states, bringing the total to 19

In 1987, General Babangida creates 3 additional States, bringing it to 21

In 1991, Babangida again creates 8 more states, bringing the number to 30

In 1996, General Abacha creates 6 more states to bring the total number to 36

Why was State creation the exclusive preserve of Northerners?

They were taught by the British that majority carries the vote .

In the national assembly, Senate, rep they don't check If the policy passed is good or bad .

If the majority accepts good if they reject then rejected.

Example: we want buhari to resign over failure
Those in favor say I iiiiii those against say neh nehhhhh the neh have it . Shikena.

That is why the north have been claiming they have population, as you can see this particular election exposed them .

The census that is coming next ,if you are in Nigeria make sure you partake because it's this census they use in determining if allocation or favors should be shared equally.

I hope you’re aware that while monogamous populations grow arithmetically, polygamous populations grow geometrically.

It’s common sense.

I hope you are also aware that you can't argue a population growth of people close to water and people close to desert?

Why? Is there water scarcity in the North?

Is the bulk of agricultural produce not grown in the North?

I hate democracy. I don't see it as perfect way of selecting leaders especially in Nigeria.

If not how can10 coconut head that don't know basic economics select for reasonable ones. It don't make sense

One Almajiri vote to be equal to one Prof vote in Unical is unjust to the prof.

We can see that in the wrong selection in Nigeria.
Electoral point should accompany each region.

Ironsi, a Southerner, gave Northerners the powers they needed to do that. You forgot it was ironsi that dismantled the autonomy of the regions and concentrated enormous power in the central government! And when Ironsi was overthrown, the power he left behind was used by subsequent Northern régimes to create states to taste.
