[color=#000099][/color] victory36:Anioma state from Igbo speaking part of Delta, Edo state and part of Anambra with Asaba as capital will be great. Ikenga should be advocating for the return Ohaji/Egbema to Igbo state. The drama of 1978 should be revisited. |

Lol! Bill dead on arrival! Will this turn around the ailing economy? That Ugochinyere must be very stupid to think he can include Anambra portions in the fictional Orlu state, which obviously won't see the light of day. Anambra people will never agree to form part of it. |

greenandy:Fantastic, it took two Orlu men 16 years to construct a single road from Orlu to Owerri. One built a private University, the other convert it to Public. U see Anambra provided a climate for NdiAnambra to bring their investment home. Sir Obi Jackson is back in Okija, we even built an Airport to bring Allen Onyema home. I have feeling if you remove them to Orlu State due to insecurity, looting and bad governance they would never have returned home. In 16 years u could not develop Orlu or start a City for your new state, no airport, riverport, industry, nothing. Nwanne u people should go and have several sits. |

NwekereNdokl:Lol... You're so deluded! It is not about making noise on nairaland. The real pure blood igbos know themselves and every sane person knows them. You are obviously not pureblood, that is why you people try to prove a point at every given opportunity. Which stems from pure inferiority complex and nothing more.. Waste of time engaging further with you... |

Onyiiobi7735:Lol....Poor man without an opinion is in his face me I face you dictating to lawmakers what to do. Do you even know the people pushing this? Do you think your opinion matters..? Or you think lawmakers and the big men that matter are not privy to this and pushing it? All this ignorance here by bunch of nonentities... Same Igbo man that wants Biafra.....Lmao... |

Onyiiobi7735:A Yoruba man will not mind a 6th state in the SE because he understands the potential advantages for the south of Nigeria. It's some most politically ignorant Igbos who don't understand. The fact that parts of Anambra south zone was merged to rest of Anambra state when the present Anambra State was created does not remove the fact of the cultural linkage between parts of Anambra south senatorial zone and Orlu senatorial zone. |

I dont understand these so called Representatives we have. Creating of more states is not Nigeria's problem right now. We have states that should be local governments, contributing nothing to the country, only coming to collect their share every month. We have states that cant even pay the 30k minimum wage, governors are crying that they cant meet up to the proposed 100k minimum wage, these ones are busy pushing useless bills. From National anthem to this? |

I don't know if they'll all agree with Orlu as the name or better to find another River like Urasi to use as name[Niger state is already taken] or they should find an English nomenclature (e.g. Rivers, Delta, Cross River, Plateau) maybe something like Orient, Heartland, Northern Imo😂 or Southern Anambara 😁 I would rather propose equal 8 states for each zone (or 7 if the North will agree) Some parts of Delta and Rivers states are grumbling about the location of their capitals in another tribe bla bla. Bayelsa has only 8 LGAs so Anioma and Ikwere can go their separate ways as their own respective states or merged together to become one state or whatever. Southeast would get 2 to 3 new states ending the political marginalisation of Owerri zone and developmental neglecting of Okigwe Those with 6 states will get 1 or 2 more states but Those with 7 states already will not feel left out if it's rounded up to 8 states for every region |

Nchenches:Imo state university Uturu okigwe is not in Owerri. Imo polytechnic (now university) umuagwo ohaji is not in Owerri. Federal government college Okigwe is not in Owerri All the other proposed state institutions like colleges of education, teaching hospital etc etc are not to be sited in Owerri it's just poor rulership made them not to be functional. I don't know how federal government located both futo and Federal polytechnic nekede in basically the same community. And Alvan Ikoku sits besides government house and Medical Centre. The abrupt relocation of imo State university to Owerri, at the site that might have been girls secondary school, was because of dividing Okigwe into two just to give Abia a university to start with. Poor rulership again played into this as none of the proposed IMSU permanent sites (njaba, mbaise, oguta etc) have come to fruition. LET IT BE MADE CLEAR THAT ORLU ZONE HAS BEEN THE ONE RULING IMO; Udenwa 8yrs, Okorocha 8yrs, Uzodinma 8yrs. Arthur Nzeribe, Izunaso and many other notable Imo politicians are from ORLU zone. Currently Orlu zone has two state universities, teaching hospital, international market and one state polytechnic. So how is it Owerri holding them |

Nchenches:I could be suffering from whatever, but i am telling you the reality. No part of anambra would willingly want to align with a new state today. I am also not interested in drawing comparisons between anambra and imo states. Moreover, the subject of discussion is a proposed orlu state and not imo. I have also not demonized imo state But I'd say one thing. Politically, you can assess for yourself the quality of leadership in both states and the stability and progress they each have brought to their respective states between 2003 to date. I am actually referring to the ruling class in both states. |

jmichael259:Why would any person or group wishing well the entire Imo state go to locate Imo state university in Owerri when Federal university of technology, the Polytechnic, Alvan Ikoku College of Education, Federal College of Lands and....etc, were then, and still, in Owerri zone, but no single tertiary education institution in Orlu zone? No other state in Nigeria did that sort of inequity in distribution of government sources of modern development. Development could not come from a vacuum to Orlu, despite the number of years govs from Orlu zone steer Imo state. Conservative estimates: about 95% of income to Imo state circulates in Owerri zone alone as a result of denying government institutions to Orlu zone. By the way, the population of staff and students in the two latter-day state tertiary education institutions in Orlu zone is not up 1% of the number of staff and students in the 6 government tertiary the institutions in Owerri zone. Recently, Owerri dragged a federal university teaching hospital for Imo state and got it located in Owerri.; the same Owerri where Imo state Specialist Hospital and Federal Medical Centre also exist. Owerri and Orlu zones continuing to share one Imo state is like perpetuating arrested development in Orlu. |

Nchenches:FIRST OF ALL, THESE FEDERAL ARE IN ONE LOCATION AND NOT EVEN "OWERRI ZONE" SO MAYBE YOU SHOULD ASK THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IF THEY WERE TOO LAZY TO WALK AROUND OR THE OWERRI PEOPLE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. I AM NOT OWERRI MAN SECONDLY, NOBODY LOCATED IMO STATE UNIVERSITY IN OWERRI. ALL IMO STATE INSTITUTIONS WERE PROPOSED IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS ACROSS THE ZONES IN THE STATE. OHAJI, MBANO, OKIGWE, MBAISE, NJABA etc jmichael259:So maybe you should ask your Orlu zone senator governors why they didn't actualise the permanent site or you suppose to stop shouting since they have converted two state universities,one polytechnic and college of nursing in addition to imo teaching hospital and international market. So I don't know what else you are agitated about. |

Nchenches:Rochas Okorocha, governor from orlu zone converted general hospital umuguma into a specialist hospital to counter balance teaching hospital that was located in Orlu. Federal Medical centre Owerri was converted to FUTO teaching hospital. They are all federal projects and federal properties nothing new was created and nothing was dragged. IF YOU WANT DRAGGING, GO AND FACE OKIGWE ZONE PEOPLE WHOM HOPE UZODINMA DRAGGED THEIR IMO POLYTECHNIC IN MBANO AND RELOCATED IT TO HIS HOMETOWN OMUMA |

Lol your tantrums on naiiraland won’t change the reality . Igbo is nothing without Anambra. It is even evident in this useless state they want to create. Why do they need a part of Anambra even when there’s no part of Anambra that wants to be our Anambra monolithic state? They know that anything Anambra is not part of it will never work. Well, the joke is on you. Anambra shall never be part of their useless new state charade. Anambra is a monolithic state and so shall it be . ziondaughter247: |

pocom16:How are you sure the person is Igbo? How can a real Igbo not be excited at the prospect of having an additional state so as to be at per with other regions? |
| Re: Bill To Create Orlu State Passes First Reading In House of Representatives by FreedomfromtheT: 12:56pm On Jun 07, 2024 |
caracas:Well said. Perhaps the name of the proposed new state in the Southeast should not be called Orlu State. |
| Re: Bill To Create Orlu State Passes First Reading In House of Representatives by FreedomfromtheT: 12:59pm On Jun 07, 2024 |
waternogetemeny:The point is that the Southeast needs an additional state perhaps different from the proposed one. |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bfuAameBg4?si=0bwURpiqXv7XZFRG This is what this Orlu State people are up against. I dont think anybody in Anambra presently will even spare them a minute. Dead on arrival. One of them was telling me Okorocha and Hope built road from Orlu to Owerri for 16 years. ![]() Is that all in 16 years? The truth is that Anambra reason very differently from other states and it wont work. greenandy: |

NwekereNdokl:My dear go and sleep jare. Those areas mapped out are more culturally related than whatever part you may be from. You are probably from Igala Igbo trying so hard to be acknowledged as real Igbo. That is why you're throwing tantrums all over the place. The same way they divided states back then is still what is going on now... It is only Igbos that have allowed state to divide them in such disgusting manner, state that was mapped out with biro by a fulani man.....Artificial boundaries...Very foolish..If you had even mentioned based on town 'oh my town does not want to have anything to do with this town' I can even understand, not state with all the different groups of people..... I question the IQ of people that do this state nonsense... As I said before and I will say it again....If you are not from Nnewi North or Onitsha, don't open your mouth to talk..Okay? I am even sure you're not! The rest of the places are just mere villages. All this noise on top wetin? The worst state capital in Nigeria... Go and build your capital first then come back to talk.. |

lol see desperation and crying simply because we won’t be part of your useless state . Anambra is the most developed Igbo state and that’s why you ediots are trooping to live in Anambra instead living in your backward glorified state capital. Awka is the best city in igboland. Onitsha is the economic giant of igboland and Anambra stands tall as the only truly most developed state in igboland. Go and develop your slum glorified Umuahia which is the worst state capital in Nigeria , go and develop your backward state, stop always trying to be part of Anambra in disguise . Go and develop your state. Anambra shall never be part of ediots . Inferior third class igbos. We don’t want to be part of you backward people. Leave our state alone. Shameless inferior low esteem people that always want to attach to Anambra. ziondaughter247: |

Don’t mind the ediots . They want to always attach to Anambra because they know that Anambra is the most developed state in igboland. They know that there’s no Igbo without Anambra. hammer567: |

For those of you dreaming of a new state in the south east or anywhere. I suggest you read the constitution because clearly the rep who sponsored the bill did not. And either his fellow members also did not read the constitution or they just passed the bill to humor him. The process for creating a new state is clearly stated in the constitution. All they are embarking on is an excercise in futility. Like I said read the constitution. When you elect educated ignoramuses this is the kind of representation you get.

The southeast is supposed to have an additional state to bring it at par with other geopolitical zones. And I think it was resolved that the state to be created is Adada state, from the present Enugu state. In my opinion, I would prefer an Adada state than an Orlu state. |
