Dear Nairalanders, it ls quite clear to us that, we do not love each other in this country. The major tribes Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo are always at loggerhead with each other.
Let me go straight to the point, I believe that Nigeria's Capital City should rotate among the 6 geopolitical zones, the North Central (NC), North East (NE), North West (NW), South West (SW), South East (SE) and South (SS) even if it's every 10 years, this will really make Nigeria great again. One is that it will encourage, urbanization, Abuja will all know before becoming Nigeria's Capital City was nothing but a rural poor state but today it's the most developed state in Nigeria, why? Because it was made the Capital City. Abuja will not go back again to being a rural city ever again.
If let's say after 10 - 15 years of Abuja being the Capital City and then it shifted to another geopolitical zone e.g South East and in the east maybe Imo state. Their will be massive development in the state. The indegenes of the state won't have to leave their land to search for greener pasture. Before 4 - 5 years, Abuja, Lagos and Imo would have been so developed.
What do you think, Nairalanders?

Southeast ain't big enough, doesn't amass enough revenue as well as contributes enough stakes to have a capital city as a geopolitical zone.
Rather a merger with South South would speak well.

South South would never merge with SE.

We are not igbos and have nothing in common.

How big was Abuja or Lagos?

I still wonder why the govt haven't thought about it . Same way it's done in S.A ,thus bringing development to different region

HazardAwka:

the right question should be how big was southwest and North central in size and gdp cos both regions double the size of south east in both landmass and revenue.
