I think this is one of the reasons why Kwara and some states in Nigeria are lagging behind in development on a daily basis. There's no way you can loop people who have different ideologies and political destiny together, and expect them to move as one. This is one area where the past military juntas did a very crazy job. Personally, i'm a advocate of boundary adjustment(it may not be a creation of new states), but there should be a kind of referendum in which people will be asked where they want to belong to, after which, they'll be group into their chosen states. The nupes for example might what to join the majority nupes in Niger state. The okuns in Kogi may want to join the predominantly yoruba Kwara south, etc. This will give folks like Saraki an opportunity to be in Kwara or be absorbed in other fulani communities.

I'm aware there is a part of Jebba called 'Jebba Niger' and a part called 'Jebba Kwara', but whether the 'Jebba Niger' is officialy recognized as Niger state or whether the whole of Jebba is classified as Kwara is what I don't know.

DapoBear:
It doesn't appear that Kwara was officially classified as part of the "North" anywhere in the constitution, though. In fact, neither exists in that document, at least from my quick search.

Before 1914, there was a Northern and Southern protectorate. But those no longer exist. Just states.

alj harem:
thank u dapobear

i just want to make it clear and sound to any body that think or would ever think bukola is a northerner

1   bukola is a yoruba agent used by obj to rule us

2. how many northerners do u find in kwara (little) today compare to northerns found in lagos or abuja

3.  kwara is never a northern state ,,,,,,, i do not know were they get this arewa from in kwara but i know that they are not northerners

4.  yorubas can never rule us northerners ,,,,,,,,,,just because they are pretenting to be us when actually they do not like us

Onlytruth:
Never happening. Polygamous Igbo men are very rich (Ekene dili chukwu class) and don't have more than three wives. 98% of Igbos are monogamous.

Andre Uweh:
Chinenye, use your senses here. What are your comments on what Mr Obi said?. If there are lies, puncture it than yawn. Mind you, you have never in the history of Nairaland started a thread before.

Andre Uweh:
The above post is so irrelevant to the comment made by Sen. Obi. The post is tiring because it has to do with Igbo. Al the post flying here and there in politics section has not bored you at all, but this particular one does because GEJ and Ndigbo are concerned. Not long ago, there were so many post about Kidnappings in Abia state and no matter how numerous they were, it never bored you. Keep on displaying your hypocrisy here in the name of yawn.
Anyway, this thread is about comments made by Sen Obi, so if you have nothing to contribute, kindly disappear and forever do not come back to this thread.

Andre Uweh:
Go and say that to your father [/b]and for once quit derailing my thread. Am sure you have the mental capacity to start a thread but you don't. For the last time [b]take your usual dose of insults to your jungle or create a thread and deposit it there.

Andre Uweh:
Instead, what you have are people attacking GEJ, even some yawning from their stinking mouths.

Andrew!!
ChineyeN only said "yawn".

Anyway, I am not disappointed as long as it is you. . . .reason I once said, going by your usual replies and the fact that you are married, then, NL teenagers are over due for marriage.

chines4:
1. The question is which firm is producing toothpick in Nigeria. 2. Do we have enough cassava in Nigeria to eat. How much is a cup of garri? 3. Let the truth be told we can't feed our self. Mmmmmmmmm Nigerian need to wake up. Government ( Mmmmmm do we even have any ) can't do everything.

marvix:
, And even if he gave $50,000.00 so what?

If I invite people i believe can help with my campaign at least their transport and accomodation can be arranged by myself and if they have done that what is wrong with compensating for their time spent.

Jonathan is not a poor man, he has already done a fund raising for his campaigns and people have donated generously, so the money could have been taken from campaign funds or wherever and if Pastor Bakare feels that his concience could be bought for $50,000.00 then he is a bleeping cheap pastor.

I guess you are joking
Transportation to where will cost $50000 and did they even ask him for it? If pple donated for Jonathan, who where the pple who did it? Where did they get the money from? Is it not the same public funds that they are re-cycling?
If this is a true response from you, I wont be surprised cos I ve always said the worst of Nig is yet to come.

Does he think he can buy the SNG cos they supported him during the Yar'Adua stuff . . .sorry oo, they are not with anyone forever, they see the truth and say it at once, you may be their next target.

stranger:
I just saw it on CNN that Oyinlola was declared winner

Who am I supposed to believe?
Someone ple help

Toomy:
The verdict is not out yet, pple chill!!!

tkb417:
at least if aregbesola wins, omisore and Ooni of Ife can go and hug transformers

So you now the official NL igbo stalker?. You go to registries to check the no of Igbos who divorce their spouses per month?. Why not expend that time and energy nto something that will improve your life?. People get time o.

meyri:
Religious differences should have been handled before the marriage.

But the man bears Sunday, could it be that he changed from Christianity to Traditional?

ChinenyeN:
This was before we Africans had fully abandoned our ideology of "complimentary sexes", buying into the ideology of "opposite sexes". I like this.
