Your brain should be divided in 6.

5 should be given to a mad man, he will utilize it more than the 1 you will be left with.
even if 5 part is left with him and 1 given to the mad man, the mad will still make a better use of it.

Nobody is agitating for Aba.It is not even in the agenda of Igbo leaders to create Aba state.
Aba,Umuahia and Bende will always be together.
Then you don't know Abia history.
There's been push for an Aba state even before the creation of Ebonyi State, which was done in deference to late Dr.Akanu Ibiam who asked for that as his last request.
It was also raised again during the Obasanjo administration.

Thing is that our current reps for Ngwa la Ukwa stock lack the political will to pursue it.
Aba has what it takes to be a state on it's own but hard truth is that the rest of Abia state would collapse without Aba,hence their kick against it.

The 5 states in the south east should be merged into two.

South east contributes little or nothing to GDP
You should stop drinking camels urine. IMO is 4th highest GDP while Anambra is 6th in the whole nation. You guys are really doing bad or pretending that you are far behind. Only Lagos the nomansland is ahead of Anambra and imo. Do more you deceive yourself, the higher they move. Go to Satisense Nigeria and gets all facts or Budgit federal govt stats

SE has just 5 states which make them systematically and politically disadvantaged even economically starved.

Adding more state will add to the all round progress of the SE region
I don't think this is needed, they should fight for their Biafra instead of double standard

Land mass is never a criterion in creating new federal units in a country formed by different regions. You must put balance of economic and political power considerations as you create new federal units in a country originally formed by different regions. Nigeria had three regions in 1960. All considered, the five states only federal units for the SE zone is a cheat to the zone.

Is Onitsha subservient to Awka? No. Is Aba subservient to Umuahia? No.
In 2006 when this same proposed state was about to be created, leaders from Uga, Ozoubulu, Ihialla. Okija, including the 2 former govs of Anambra State, all teamed up with leaders of the 12 local government areas of Orlu zone for this proposed state.

Stupid bill that has no chance of passing. IMO Ugochinyere must be high on Meth to include parts of Anambra without consulting the people first. He doesn't know that even parts of Imo state like Akokwa will give anything to join Anambra. If Andy Uba and his brothers catch him for joining their town in his stupid state, he is finished.
Look at this one....Don't mention Akokwa with that your mouth. Imagine saying this rubbish...Are you from Akokwa? Who gave you the right to speak for them? That's how you hateful people go about propagating hate amongst igbos. Nonsense. What is so special about the so-called parts of Anambra?
Some of you lack foresight!

DID ANAMBRA TELL THEM TO CARVE ANY SECTION OUT OF THE STATE?


NO BE ONLY OLU STATE, THAT IS THE MOST USELESS STATE.


CURRENTLY A WAR ZONE.


PLEASE KEEP ANAMBRA OUT OF YOUR PLANS.
So he didn't even consult critical stakeholders before submitting the bill passage?

Nigerian leaders are truly clueless
One old European country was about to disintegrate during the 1990s due to misgivings of one part over fraudulent political structure.

The country's politicians from all sides came to the parliament and restructured the country politically. That ended the beats from the secessionist group.

He should have consulted first if people from those communities in anambra protest against their inclusion the nass might use it as an excuse to stand down the bill.

Not that I support creation of any state in present day Nigeria because I believe that there are lots of states that are not viable but arguing against creation of Orlu state because you don't want parts of Anambra carved out is you being disingenuous. The LGA s mentioned are a people with similar culture and dialect who have seen themselves as same people within the larger Igbo nation for centuries, and not as Anambra or Imo. They largely intermarry. Please don't bring disunity where there is none just because of an artificial boundary created by politicians and their
collaborators
Honestly so many have low IQ... These same boundaries and states were created by the Fulani man... It is only igbos that do this.
Remove Nnewi and Onitsha from Anambra and you have nothing left. And if we are going by history, these places trace their origin to places that most parts of the state are not from. Nnewi is more historically related to Orlu than nearby Nnobi. Even Igwe Achebe has acknowledged Onitsha's complex origin and Eze Chima in historical text has widely been acknowledged to be an Aro man. Any part of the so-called Anambra that is not Nnewi or Onitsha is XXXX! Every Anambra person should be thanking and worshipping the Nnewi man and Onitsha man for trying for the state and bringing them to limelight. These are the real handworkers. Unfortunately, these two hardly make noise on social media.. It is those igala converts that are the highest noisemakers. No matter how you want to put it, the real Igbos know themselves and most of Anambra cannot claim such origin, hence the reason they are always insecure and noisy... And I'm talking about Nnewi North.. Because when Nnewi is mentioned some claim they are but are not! Lol

ABA state will be the most homogeneous igbo state comprising the 7 ngwa states and maybe the two ukwa lgas but on the condition the ukwa will have a senatorial zone to themselves...cc Fergie001,mrvitalis, immaculatejoe,cjstarz,pazienza

Ok he cannot answer the question because it is too difficult or he just realise that he did to undertake due consultation which is very bad.


U cannot run Anambra affairs the way u run Imo State.

Anambra believe is carrying out consultation before they embark on any community building.

We are well mannered people.


That is why our Governor are duely elected and not a Supreme Court Governor.


As u are creatng State and did not deem it fit to consult Anambra people, no part of us will be carved to Orlu State or Abia.
