My questions are based on two factors

1. Religion
2. Landmass

Would really appreciate if you can discuss on those 2


Keep religion out of this argument.. Christianity is not upto 150 years in Nigeria so does not really affect Igbo land population in anyway... Most of our grandparents are polygamous...

What landmass are u talking about... As small as lagos state is
Could contain 20 million people yet it has not been built up.. Lots of empty land around epe gbagada badagry...

Now imagine Igbo land

We are talking about African culture here.. So don't use China, Russia as an excuse

you mentioned religion and landmass not african culture.infact you used the yoruba being 50% muslims as an example why they ought to be populated than the igbo's who are predominantly christians undecided so how does all those instance relate with african culture? or is the islam the yoruba's are praticing Afrikanus islamante ?

Another big fat lie. Major spare part market in Accra is after Circle... I know the place wella. Generations of Yoruba's have been trading motor spare parts in Ghana...

Both Yoruba's and Igbos are not even really into electronics business in Ghana... Facts

You have been dodging 2 questions..

Have you been to Ghana before?

When did Igbos start travelling to Ghana?

i did my second degree in lancaster university.

At time's it baffle's me when some north politicians fume's about them being the majority tribe,as in how? Minus hausa,what is the population of kanuri? Fulani? Nupe? Gbagyi? Gade? Angas? All this tribe's are minority by every standard.
Now let's move to the south.the two most populous tribe's after the hausa are there,the fourth most populated tribe is there ijaw,the fifth is there ibibio, the sixth is there bini. So tell how will a region with only one majority tribe be populouse than a regoin with the 2nd,3rd,4th,5th & 6th? The south remain's the dominant region..



If want to empirically justify this your statement just go to the North and see how empty and barrel the land is no single human even traveling in the road.
Take for instance Duste the capital of jigawa State only a twn like Maraba in Nasarawa State will double the population there. Infact the place is so dry. It's so bad that once it's 4 o clock the town will become ghost of itself majority of the working are either staying in Kano or bauchi
These are some of the things that mke to doubt the population of the north

Now imagine Igbo land

If Oyo state alone is almost the same land mass with all the 5 SE states, Ogun state, combination of 3 SE states it's logical to say there would be more settlement in Oyo, Ogun than all SE States.

Is it only Igbos that practiced polygamy in Nigeria?

If I am not mistaken, there are more muslims in Oyo state than Christians

There is something I have been questioning personally regarding SE population..

If majority of them are Christians which means they mostly practiced monogamy, why is there population almost the same with SW population that has almost 50/50 Christians and Muslims..

Is like I'm seeing sense in your analysis, let even say Yoruba and Igbo are 90mil +the other minority tribes in the South.

Regarding the topic, when one Northerner can marry 50 wives... They have more states than Southern region..

There is a reason why successive northern Nigeria president's and heads of state had been averse to a credible census count. They know the truth.

That the north have more land mass do not necessarily translate to more people. You could journey kilometers in some places in the north with no human dwellings in sight. The north is arid, and one do not need to be an anthropologist or the likes to know that there's is a direct relationship between water sources and population. Why do you think there is no civilized life confirmed to exist on Mars?.

The more states you talked about and the resultant local governments is a product of political expediency and disenfranchisement fraudulently entrenched in the fraudulent document called constitution made by Northern soldiers and their co-conspirators.

Also, today's Christians of any denomination have not always been Christians. When did Christianity arrive our shores?. Some of our grandfather's, their parents and great grandparents before them were polygamist. They had to be because human labor was the major source of productivity in those days.

Modern polygamy is still alive and thriving in the south as we speak, or what would you call baby mama phenomenon?.

We all know that Nigeria's population data was intentionally skewed towards the north back in the day by the colonial masters to achieve a set objective. They have also publicly confessed to that evil act.

Point is, the idea that the north have more people numbers is baseless, and not supported by verifiable facts.
