Especially Ekiti and Ogun




Those states are barren




Since Ekiti sold their votes on credit na there I curse them


And we promised you by 2027 we won't still vote for your useless obi, na only Igbo go vote that criminal


Ekiti that export agricultural crops, cocoa among others is what you call barren? Ogun state has the highest human capitals in Nigeria, you join them in your useless derogatory expression all because they don't believe in your peter obi you cursed for 8yrs


As you cursed Ekiti and Ogun, your family will get the cursed in million folds

My questions in creating new state are;
Do we create new state based on land mass?
Do we create new state based on population?
Do we create new state based on IGR?
Do we create new state based on man know man MKM?

Please I need to be educated on this.
Thanks
A- Although all states can't be equal, at least the size difference shouldn't be much, so in terms of comparative advantage, a state shouldn't use it's landmass as an excuse...
For example, Lagos state is the smallest state, while Niger state is the biggest but food items/agricultural produce are cheaper in Niger state... Had it been Lagos has a very large landmass it can accommodate Farming as a source of igr and the people will benefit "Directly" in terms of food, coz what is consumed is cultivated there ..
In other words, lagosians are at a disadvantage compared to those in Niger state in terms of Agriculture..

B- No need creating because of population... What if in future the population reduces, will the state be divided?

C- No need, those that generated the IGR should benefit from it... No need creating or dividing an existing state ...

D- Lol.... We practice Democracy not Oligarchy...

Even GDP is not a realistic measure. What really are the drivers of GDP in Nigeria? It is oil and gas which is less than 15% of the economy. SA has gdp lower than Nigeria but in terms of income per capita Nigeria no reach SA.

Whos talking nigeria vs sa?

Stop dis rubbish

Besides, the 36 states are not supposed to be fighting ...thatz the peak of insanity.


All of them are not developed


They are all in a state of economic emergency

Run recklessly by political parties that depend on human sacrifice as we speak

mrvitalis thinks he is the one to determine whos valuable and whos not.

Where the govt eats with the poor instead of thinking of how to alleviate them from that situation?

It is intentional because if the people are free from poverty nobody will do them ranka dede tomorrow. Make them very poor today so that with #1k during election they will vote for you again

Sorry for you, Lagos is already one of the South Western states, a geopolitical zone that belongs to Yoruba people.

That's an history.

Are you kidding me? Do you know how much each state governor is being paid and how much it costs monthly to run the office of the governor?

That governors are shortsighted and lazy doesn't make states non-viable economically. In the hands of sincere persons with vision and ideas, every state in Nigeria will become competitively viable.

Lol, going by IGR, Imo, Abia, Enugu are below Ondo, as a matter of fact there's no SE state in top 10.


There are no states for NC above Ondo apart from Kwara, Kwara is hardly NC

Apart from Kaduna and Kano, no northern state above Ondo.

Especially merging Ogun State with Lagos. Their boundaries is not quite clearly defined. Both of their workforces resides and work in either States.
I'd like to see that happen at least for the benefit of me seeing the Ogun State part of the Lagos/Benin express road that's always perennially bad being well constructed for once

I agree... Most states are too small and some are just too large.. no proper geographical survey...

Re: Alibaba: Some States Should Have Been Local Government Areas by onuman: 10:46pm On Mar 19
The states were proliferated in the old northern region to channell most of the oil revenues from the Niger delta region to the old northern region.
Problem is that most people, especially in the south of Nigeria, do not understand that land mass or population figure is not used as criterion to proliferate too many new federating units in an area with large landmass or population for a country formed by different regions.
Three regions - east, west and north formed Nigeria in 1960.

For fairness, there should have been equal number of states in the three regions that formed Nigeria in 1960.

It's not about landmass but viability of the state. Landmass isn't the issue because most of the states with big landmass has little to nothing as internal generated revenue.

Why is Ogun state the worst in terms of road in Nigeria?

Think about this...with the IGR u guys have the serious number of out of school children in Nigeria,the worst in the whole of the southern region.

Stupid and foolish comparisons!

Empty brain.

Once they talk of Biafra now, u start urinating on your boxers, yet you hate them!




chopnaira:

Especially Enugu and Ebonyi. Even Anambra sef. The remaining 30% of Anambra land free from erosion damage should be added back to Enugu as it was in the days of Eastern region.



You are correct...remove Ogun, Ekiti, and Lagos, SW IGR is still greater than the whole SE IGR. The whole SE should normally be maybe one or two state since they are unproductive and rely mostly on allocations from Federal Government.

States like Ekiti , jigawa , ebonyi , yobe , kebbi , bayelsa , gombe
But Ebonyi state is bigger than some countries in europe besides Ebonyi state is known for rice production and several quarry or mining sites and large deposit of limestone in the state, what's Ekiti state and other states you mentioned known for.
