Are the anioma people ready to be addressed as Igbo people if Anioma state is made the sixth State in Southeast?
Imo, from Imo River
Enugwu, Hill Top..
Anambra, from Omambala River
Ebonyi, from Ebonyi River
ABIA...Aba, Bende, Isukwuato, Afikpo
Anioma... Good land...

Anioma are 💯 ready to be South East 6th state. If they don't want to be indentified as Igbos as there are other minor ethnic groups within the area, it is still good... The 6 states of South South don't speak one language and are not from one Ethnic group

This is a wrong move. They will use that state to bring terrorism into South south and south east. When northern Muslims support something u need to be careful

They are mostly agbadohs. They oppose everything that has to do with the SE region but this one is beyond them because they are mere APC mugus
Very welcoming development. Everywhere good. Equal= Equity

Nice move.
The creation will come with an additional state carved out from Akwa Ibom while two more States will be carved out from the West I.e Ondo and Ogun State.
Watch out.

Adding anioma state to the south east to balance the regional imbalance makes more sense and gives the anioma state agitation more credibility but unfortunately many anioma people are still scared of joining the east they actually scared of another biafra war breaking out in nigeria where they will be massacred again just like in the first biafra war.

Creating a new state comes with a lot of political opportunities like getting more nass members, ministers and ambassador it brings more development to abandoned communities because of the creation of more local govt areas. Hope u also know the uhrobos have presented a bill for the creation of ethiope state which has just passed second reading where will that now leave the anioma people?
Re: 6th South East State: Over 97 Senators Back Anioma by Stolen: 6:42pm On Jul 21, 2025
BEFORE MIDEWEST WAS CUT OUT OF SOUTHERN NIGERIA, NOTHING CONCERNED THE ENTIRE SS REGION WITH YORUBA.


THEY CAME TO NIGERIA TOGETHER WITH IGBOS AND TILL TODAY IN PLACES LIKE LAGOS AND THE NORTH, THEY ARE IGBOS TO THE LOCALS.



SO, ANYBODY HOLDING TO A MERE POLITICAL CREATION OF THE 1960s,


YES MIDWEST WAS CREATED IN THE 196s, BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH WERE WRONGLY PLACED INTO THE WESTERN REGION CREATED IN 1954.


THEY COULD NOT STAY IN WESTERN REGION PASS 3 YEARS BEFORE AGITATION AND DEMAND TO LEAVE BEGAN.

I said it. The only state we anambra people will support is Anioma state. The two Anambra senators are onboard. Anambra leads, others follow. Any other state proposal from the southeast will be fiercely resisted.

How is Anioma a South-east state? Very soon, you all will deny being part of the Southeast.

Either this is a misrepresentation, or a ploy to leverage on the situation in the Southeast to create a state in the south-south.

Or is Delta state now part of Southeastern Nigeria?
Am sure you will swear that Yorubas are in Kwara state but don't know Igbos are in Delta. Keep deceiving yourself

Even the 5 states are still not being managed well..
Small landmass and huge FAAC, still everywhere looks like a mess.

5 governor, over 40 house of rep members, and 15 senators can't fix or manage a region that is not more than Oyo state in size.

If we go according to the parable of the talents in the bible, the existing 5 should actually reduce.
have u been to the east b4? i guess not anyway i am a proud anioma man and we aniomas want to join our brothers across the river the anioma state will foster igbo unification across the south south and south east. i know u dont like it but unity is a good thing anybody against unity is a witch

Nigeria doesn't need more states. It's all an avenue to loot money.

Insecurity is number one problem of Nigeria followed by production.

delta state is not a tribe but a geopolitical zone and we the igbos indegineous to delta and edo is large enough to have our own state that is why the anioma state is created to bring the igbos in delta and edo to join there brothers across the river

Who told you states in the south-east are not being run well!? And are you talking based on the premise that states in other regions are being run well!? The states of Enugu, Abia and Anambra are being run relatively well! Don’t judge governance in the south-east based on the visionless and APC imposed gov’ts in Imo and Ebonyi!

Re: 6th South East State: Over 97 Senators Back Anioma by ElevationD: 6:55pm On Jul 21, 2025
Anioma is the most reasonable state to be added yo the SE. Certain persons over the years have allowed political sentiments to be loud their senses of reasoning. They have become so confused and ended up rejecting their blood and cultural identity of being Igbo people. Whether you choose to call yourself Ibo or Igbo, you are an Igbo person. If you choose to align with the strange political thoughts of being descendants of Nupe or Benin people, that’s your problem to figure out. The fact of the matter is that as long as you are from Delta north, you are by blood an Igbo person.

Boundary creations led to dividing Akoko Edo people between Edo and Ondo states. Their identity was not taken as they all relate as one. Boundary creation split Egbema people between Imo and Rivers states. Their identities remain the same. The same language, the same people. The same in other areas of the nation. One wonders why certain persons continue to live in illusion, thinking that Anioma state, a move which was started too many years ago, will not happen. All we are waiting for is the amendment of the constitution in December and then Anioma state will come alive finally. It will become the sixth state of the SE. It makes more sense than creating Adada, etc, out of the already existing states. Since we have Brother’s across the Niger in Delta north, it makes better sense to bring them all home. Let Emeka be Emeka and not pretend to be Osawaru, etc. Even the great citizens of Delta South and Central call those of Delta North Igbo people. So why all the political Wayo?

According to Bitter Truth channel on YouTube. How true is the statement below?
THIS IS THE SAME YORUBA MAN RENAMING STREETS IN LAGOS WITH IGBO WORDS TO YORUBA.

Asaba is already in Anioma. The whole of Oshimilli North and South are in Anioma.

Capital will move to Warri. 😁😁😁😁
Hmmm I doubt if the people of Delta will agree o. They have spent a lot of money in Asaba to lose it to Anioma even if it's the right thing.
