This is not the best for the country,to me creating Anioma state to complete South East states and allowing all regions to operate independently.Another area is dividing kwara state into two, the yorubas from kogi,Edo, and kwara state join South West region.The ijaws in ondo state join South South region.With all regions independently operating Nigeria will be great.

One of them who believe in the falsehood that land mass or population statistics is a determining factor for state creation.

Ijebu, Oke Ogun (from Ogun) is quite strange, how can Ijebu (Ogun) and Oke Ogun (Oyo) be from Ogun?

Where is the Anioma state that Ned Nwoko has been championing since? I hope it was not just a ruse.
Re: List Of 31 New States Proposed By Nigerian Senate by LeopardX: 2:05pm On Jun 25, 2025
I'm actually in support of the creation of more states.
It seems some states are just too big for one person to manage as Governor.

Development will be very fast even in spite of corruption. That's my opinion.

Wornakhin?

Why do you wanna separate brethren.

If there's gonna be any of such at all,it should be Afemai state for the Afemai people and Edo state for the Edo people of benins and Ishan. We are better together.

The oba of Benin years and years ago should never have allowed the afemais and Ishan people to go..or he should have forbidden them to have their own kings.
Look, over time, people become distant from each other. Even related people. Urhobo, Isoko, most senior Itsekiri chiefs, a good percentage of Itsekiri and the Olu, Iseluku, Illah, Onicha-Ugbo, Onicha-Olona and many Delta people are of Benin origin.

Today, those tribes/people are in Delta. No problem. Benin has people in Rivers state such as Degema, Ogba, a large part of Rivers Obiokpor and others. People like Wike and Amaechi. A large tree will spread its seeds far and wide.


Most Edo North claim Benin origin too.

If today's politics decides things this way, let it be. Look, Benin artifacts are coming home after almost 130 years.


A stone thrown up will eventually come back to Earth.

Talk about your barren land and leave Lagos and South West alone.

Sir you should be the senate president and just finish this bill from Scratch to law in 5 minutes.

I don't understand where they see those list o even a traveller like workmen who move around know that.
Your list is my list how do we get it across to our bunch of dishonorable senate.

Why is Anioma State from (Delta State) not on that list?
Re: List Of 31 New States Proposed By Nigerian Senate by Agugbadin: 2:42pm On Jun 25, 2025
In all of this I didn't see Anioma state. So what is going on.
Re: List Of 31 New States Proposed By Nigerian Senate by olaJako(m): 2:56pm On Jun 25, 2025
These are people that lack focus in Nigeria. Nigeria has not finish putting 36 states in Progress and these people are adding 31...🤔. Will the 31 new states in Nigeria end insecurities, bad road, No constant light, High cost of food and so on?

Their proposal is not for the love of their people but for selfish motives.

It's an expansionist agenda,so that they will put their cronies as the governors of the state and act as godfathers to siphon the state resources.

Ordinarily, everyone knows that the last state creation was a mistake as most of these state were not economically viable

cyberbro:
Everyone wants to be a governor that's why they're agitating for the creation of new states...

As a matter of fact, some states currently are not even worth being called states. Imagine Oyo State alone being larger than the entire South East, yet others want to form a new state there. Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria, yet they're proposing a new "lagoon" state within that small land mass.

They're not thinking of how to solve pending issues, it's how to embezzle state allocation they're targeting. Make all of them just getat!

It boils down to greed. Too much oil money. I just feel the politicians down here are just extremely wicked.
The money spent on any proposed state can make the country more productive.

How much can these proposed states generate internally? Just another means for people to steal from the treasury?

You've said it all bro. When there's free money to spend, nobody will engage their brains to look for solutions to pending issues.

Just imagine there is no more oil money, all the political greed and do or die mentality would end.

We dont really need new states at all, the existing states are not even viable to create resources for themselves they are thinking of creating other states and secondly this is another way to create more politicians for those new states to embezzle the country more
Re: List Of 31 New States Proposed By Nigerian Senate by Shikena(m): 4:36pm On Jun 25, 2025
They should send another bill to reduce Nigeria to just 18 states. Each of the 6 zones should be condensed into 3 states each. Then simultaneously enforce strong local government autonomy. Government should be closer to the people via the local government not state level.⁷
