𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 that South-East Region of five States is almost the same size of Oyo State (one state out of the six South-West States)?

Yet, South-East Region (equivalent to Oyo State) is governed by:

i. 5 Governors
ii. 15 Senators
iii. 43 House of Representatives Members
iv. 95 Local Government Chairmen
v. 129 State House of Assembly Members

While Oyo State is governed by:

i. 1 Governor
iI. 3 Senators
iii. 14 House of Representatives Members
iv. 33 Local Government Chairmen
v. 33 State House of Assembly Members

South East Total Landmass = 28,983Km²

Oyo State Landmass = 28,454Km²

Why is SE, a single State with 5 Governors and 95 LGA Chairmen not better developed than Oyo State with just one Governor and 33 LGA Chairmen?

Why has South East that collect allocations in five different places under five Governors and 95 Council Chairmen not been able to turn the region into Dubai?

Are the five heads of SE better than one head of Oyo State?

Instead of them to read this post and be sober and put heads together on how to improve their 5 plots of land, they will rather come here and defend rubbish and brag endlessly and throw tantrums like petulant kids ... The facts remain the facts. grin

Raw facts. They would soon be here to brag about how they developed port Harcourt, Kano, Lagos, America, Malaysia, Hongkong, India, South Africa e.t.c. while forgetting about their homelands except on Christmas days.

Imo state alone is the 2nd largest economy after Lagos state

Imo state now has the largest Natural Gas reserves in West Africa

All the South East states are among the states with the Highest HDI aside Ebonyi state

Oyo state doesn't not even come close to Imo state when it comes to education..

You guys should rest
Oyo state is just big (Landmass) for nothing

Aside Lagos
Enugu state has better urban road network than any other south west state

What is killing Nigeria is the needless tribal supremacy
Thats why you guys voted 2 dullards into power...

And yet IMO has higher GDP than OYO... Lmaooo is it by landmass?

Nigeria is the only place people measure with landmass and population

Instead of GDP and GDP per capita

IMO is the second largest economy in Nigeria

You gave an answer to a different question.

A region the size of Oyo with
i. 5 Governors
ii. 15 Senators
iii. 43 House of Representatives Members
iv. 95 Local Government Chairmen
v. 129 State House of Assembly Members

Add all their allocations togther. Add all their governance together. Add all their human resources (manpower) e.t.c. add all the whatever is available together.. How come the region hasn't turned to Dubai? What stops the governors coming together and pooling their resources together to develop the small landmass....

The south east even clamouring for an additional state is the joke of the century. Like more allocation and goodies from the federal when the other 5 which is the size of Oyo or Kogi has nothing to show for what they have received.

What has landmass got to do with development? South West still remains a slum whether you allow 21governors to rule one of its state, nonsense.

He is talking about WHAT they receive as States and local government VERSUS WHAT a SINGLE state receives.

The topography and geomorphology of Enugu state especially with the large deposit of natural coal reserves does not support abundance of Groundwater..

No State in Southeast is as backward as Oyo and no zone in Nigeria is as developed as the Southeast. The statistics are there to verify however what Igbos experience across Nigeria is hatred, envy and systemic marginalization based on ethnicity. Imo State is near as urbanized as Lagos State followed closely by Anambra.

SE people should be pushing their governors to work harder and hold them more accountable since their landmass is extremely small, and they have a surplus government representatives (5 governors, multiple HOR and senators). But NO, they would rather open all sort of strange topics all day to talk about Port Harcourt, Lagos, Ibadan and other places outside their region. E be like say na Winch or curse 😂

Just today, I read on here that Cross River has secured a funding for the a deep sea port. Soon the SE would go and start dragging land with them.

IGBO do not own 5 States in the East. Igbo only own 2 and half States in the East. Abia, Ebonyi, half of Enugu and half of Imo are Igbo indeginous States. While Anambra and half of Enugu are Igala ancestral land and half of Imo State is Ijaw ancestral land.

I now wonder, how many land go be Biafra? grin

Sw did not witness any destruction during civil war, education was not disrupted, yet the south east that witnessed so much destruction has caught up with the south west in all areas. In other words, sw has been sleeping.

Isreal is the smallest country in the Middle East yet dey oppress all the Muslim countries that are 198 times larger than it

Lagos has the largest igr, larger than 32 states combined yet lagos is not any different from the 32 states. It has poor power supply, bad roads, poor water supply, open gutters, refuse everywhere, smelling carnals, market, people pissing and shitting in any available Bush.

Mohomodu, but our Oyo State is down the totem pole dragging 30th position in education with states like Borno and Yobe in WAEC and JAMB statistics, while Ibo states are all in the top 6 in these indices, their schools winning international laurels and accolades.

I was in Omi-adio in Oyo last month, I could hardly find 2 people who could converse in pidgin, talk less of English. It was shocking.

Our yoruba people need to do better. Ibos are far ahead.

If we yorubas have suffered half of what Ibos have suffered in Nigeria, we would begging for alms and food from alumajiris, because we would be worse than the alumajiris. grin

Ibo deserve salute, they are made of steel, and I know that deep in your heart, you salute them, with a tinge of envy. You are not alone. I do too omo iya mi.. grin
