cursed region that your brother's run to barefoot on a second basis?
Cursed region that you dispatch in?, That is in your moniker?

You are obviously a delusional dumbo

If all.the industrialists from Anambra decide to build their Industries in Anambra, where will you find the land for such?

Lagos has 20 million people of which 17 million are not original Lagos people.

You have lost Lagos. Can't go to Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti or Ondo.

Lagos is not a western state. Deal with that

Not true sir. I used to think that Igbos are a majority in population and that we have more Igbo outside SE but data has proven otherwise. There are more Igbo living in the 5 Igbo SE states and Anambra is no exception..

My hypothesis is that Igbo population has been inflated. The most emperical data show that 20% of Igbo are domiciled outside the SE, 80% are domiciled within the 5 Igbo SE states and the Igbo population is actually a minority population.

Luckily, numbers do not have emotion. Below are the facts:

1. Due to history, cultural affinity, linguistic spread of the Igbo language and Igbo-speakers, most of this 20% Igbo living outside Igboland will be more in states such as Rivers, Delta, Kogi and Benue that border the 5 Igbo SE states than far away places like Lagos, Kano and Abuja.

2. Data from recent inec voters registration for Osun alone is higher than the total registration in Igbo South East (screenshot below)

3. Satelite image of Aba, Onitsha, Enugu, Ebonyi compared to Ibadan show a small area of dense population https://www.nairaland.com/7186666/aba-ibadan-satellite-picture-aba

4. Data from 2021 JAMB registration show that 447,857 are indigenes of SW states that registered their states of origin as Lagos, Oyo, Osun, Ekiti, Ondo and Ogun for JAMB against 320,306 indigenes of SE that registered their states of origin as Abia, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi and Anambra. Only 20% (70K out of the 320K) of the JAMB candidates of SE origin live outside the 5 Igbo SE states.

5. Demograhics data of internet subscribers also support my hypothesis like other demographic data captured with better data capturing tools, https://www.nairaland.com/7203013/states-nigeria-largest-internet-subscribers that validated my hypothesis that Igbo population in SE is inflated and the Igbo are a minority group in terms of population.

6. Data from overall inec voters registration show Igbo among the lowest with the only Igbo state, Anambra state, at the bottom of the top 10 https://nairametrics.com/2022/06/30/top-10-states-with-the-highest-number-of-registered-voters-as-of-june-27-2022/

The politicians knew this reality all along hence no serious effort to canvass for votes aggressively in SE like they do for other zones.

SE may just be same population as states with similar land size as it like Kaduna or Katsina or Oyo and the SE is by far the least populated of all the geopolitical zones.

As things stand now, no serious contender can bank on votes from SE and a serious contender will not get the voting strength incentive from the SE.

The SE is a minority vote region even far behind the minority tribes-dominated SS from these data.

Data from JAMB show the Igbo population is abysmally low, so low that only Imo state featured in the top 10 states with registered indigenes sitting for JAMB and for Igbo dominated schools, the Igbo were no. 4 top for universities with UNN ,No. 8 for polytechnics and no single college of Education in Igboland made it among the top 10 colleges of Education with highest registered JAMB candidates !
https://utmeofficial.com.ng/jamb/jamb-registration-statistics-2020-2021-by-course-universities-polytechnics-nce-and-state-of-origin/

On number of JAMB applicants who are Igbo, Anambra state is the Igbo state with the highest number of registered candidates yet was No. 16 on the list far far behind! And all the JAMB candidates registered for JAMB in the whole of SE just adds up to about the total candidates in Lagos state alone or sum for Oyo and Ogun.

As at now the best and cleanest data indicate that about 80% of Igbo are domiciled in the SE while 20% are domiciled outside the 5 Igbo SE states.

Out of the 320,306 Igbo candidates in the 2020-2021, max.(when you add total candidates that registered for JAMB in those 5 SE states and assume they are all Igbo) only about 250K(~80%)account for candidates that sat for exam in the SE while about 70K(20%) are Igbo candidates who registered outside the SE to represent the total Igbo candidates.
It makes sense because you have more Igbo domiciled in SE than outside SE.


So where is the high Igbo population I used to imagine??

Internet subscribers; low

Inec registration; low

Jamb applicants writing Jamb in SE; low;

Jamb applicants based on State of origin; low

land mass; low
Yet
Analogue Census; High(?)

So all these data conflate to prove that Igbo are a minority group by population but have inflated numbers which call for scientific enquiry.

PresidObi:
Anambra is a small state with a very large population. Anambra cannot contain all of Anambra people and all their large companies, estates, offices etc.

Anambra has spilled into many neighbouring states like Delta, Enugu, Imo.

Since the 1940s, Anambra people have been moving into other parts of the world, but they always return, with a lot of prosperity.

Pakute:
Lol.. They ran away from Dubai that Obi built and hide under brown roofs in SW.

ANSMEDIA:
Stop spewing nonsense. The Governor is making a political statement. Anambra is still the most populous state in Nigeria aside Lagos, Kano and Rivers. And the state has figured out waste management system that other states in Nigeria should copy.



Expect Improved Waste Evacuation Process Across Anambra State

-as 31 contractors are mobilize to work -

Anambra State Government on Thursday, July 1, 2022 mobilized 31 contractors on waste evacuation across all the 21 Local Government Areas in the state.

Speaking to news men on the new development, the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Anambra Waste Management Agency, ASWAMA, Chief Ifeanyi Ozoemena, Nzeakonobi, assured of improved waste evacuation process across all the communities in the 21 local government of the state.

Chief Ozoemena, explained that "the state government mobilized 31 contractors on 1st of July and they have all commenced work simultaneously, therefore we are expecting improved waste evacuation in all the litter points henceforth." He further assured that there will be no backlog anywhere going forward.

It will be recalled that on assumption of office on 17th March, 2022, the state governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, suspended contract of all the contractors handling waste evacuation in the state in other for the new government to review their activities and come up with new modalities that will serve the state better on waste evacuation and management.

cardoctor:
How many Lagosians are in Lagos?

FuckOsuPigs:
Their land is barren and without prospect. That is why they run to other people's land for prosperity

The only issue I have with them is that they are ingrates. Their case is like the proverbial slave accommodated with open arms in the home of his master but soon starts swearing by the ancestors of his master's as if he's one of them.

OriOko88:
Only Onitsha and nnewi are densely populated in anambra.. Other towns over there are stark villages with few mansions. I think anambra has high mortality rate hence their low population. The rate at which young people die there is a major course for concern. Its as if d old witches are killing d younger ones....maybe that's one of d major reasons igbos dont stay in their towns.. Fear of village people.
I served in ekwusigo in 2016, d rate of deaths then was so high..and people think its normal thing.. They even do Burial like carnival.,and by 6 7 pm everywhere don silent like grave. I quickly japa without looking back after service.

Guynexttdoor:
Because u already grouped Igbos only the political way of only South East, I'm from delta state and I'm Igbo. Some part of south south states are also igbo dominated origins

Pakute:
Lol.. They ran away from Dubai that Obi built and hide under brown roofs in SW.

oneeast:
Stop mentioning SW. Igbos only go to Lagos. Igbos don't go to yoroobaland which comprises of mud houses infested villages like ibadan, Abeokuta, osigbo, akure, Ado Ekiti

ziondaughter247:
I think it is population by number as per number of inhabitants, just like Lagos, Rivers, Kano etc - whose major inhabitants are non-indigenes who relocated to the state for greener pastures. I find it very arrogant when these same Anambra ppl claim that they developed Lagos but quite a number of the traders in Onitsha market are not from Anambra, they just came there because of the commerce in the area. And it is silly for them to keep bragging about higher GDP and all that but hate when Lagos claims the highest GDP, as it's only natural that Anambra GDP is better than other southeast states due to it's vantage location...Any area that is close to water and is not landlocked will easily attract commericial and development activites, just like Lagos

But in terms of number of indigenes, IMO STATE has the highest number of Igbo indigenes. No amount of lies by these people will distort this FACT...
