It is not about religion or culture, our leaders don't just need our actual number because it will expose them all.

Phone number, bank account, NIN,BVN, strict birth and date certificate are enough to get atleast 90‰ accurate number of our population.

I agree.

FreeStuffsNG:
I have been stating this fact for years now but people don't know.

Clean data from JAMB, INEC, NCC and Google maps show proven large expanse of green agrarian unoccupied land in the South-East geopolitical zone which has the smallest land mass area in Nigeria. It is incontrovertible evidence that prior to the use of space and technology, the population of Southeast indigenes have been inflated for political and corruption reasons.

Giving Southeast 5 states from a land mass about the size of Oyo State is a grave injustice to the South West and North which are regions with both high population and huge land mass. The Southeast political elite have been ripping off Nigeria by not turning such a small place with small population into Dubai or Doha.


As a matter of fact, the 3 major tribes in Nigeria are Hausa, Yoruba and Fulani.


That has been done. JAMB data use real biometrics, NIN and registered GSM number. Southeast always turn out the least!

It's so bad that on the analysis of JAMB data, it reveals that about 75% of the JAMB candidates with state of origin from Southeast are registered in South East and about 20% are within the states that border Southeast. Only about 5% are registered in the South West and North. By extrapolation, less than 25% of the total population of Igbo is actually domiciled outside Igboland. It is factually wrong that most Igbo are even domiciled outside Southeast. The population has always been small but overbloated for corrupt purposes by the Igbo political elite and their collaborators in Federal Government.

This one just smoked illiteracy and ignorance into his organs...
For your info igbos are more populated than Yorubas in Lagos , igbos are also the most populated in Abuja....
IGBOS are also the second most populated tribe in every none igbo state in Nigeria

It's highly irresponsible and reprehensible for Seun and his team to allow this kind of divisive post. Of what use is this ? And to say these are fake figures.

Don’t let bigotry destroy you this boy. If you don’t like the igbos, join them tell Nigeria to allow them to be on their own instead of this hatred always coming from you. Start by telling FG to release MNK.

ARISHEM:
South east is lowest because they are all coming to Lagos. Not to talk of others that are moving to India, china and Ghana with their excuse of developing those places

With their low in numbers, you people keep talking about them everyday hahaha

I'm not igbo but wtf

DeOTR:
Yorubas are at least 60% of Kwara, second largest population in Kogi. And they're indigenous to these states. You can mention any other states in the North. Kwara are Kogi have indigenous Yoruba populations.

I think we are third largest in Kogi behind Ebira and Igala people.
Yorubas travel a lot across the country (maybe not to the East Sha) and across the world (maybe we prefer Americas and Europe more than Asia Sha) but we don't make noise like our NOISY NEIGHBORS.
No Be Juju Be Dat?

Why always emphasizing on south east, Abi did they bury your placenta there

AustineE1:
South west 44million including the over 20million Igbos in south west.
North central including Abuja 33million with over 10million Igbos.
North west 63million with over 5million igbos.
South south 33million with millions of Igbos both aboriginal Igbos and others.
Without even mentioning North east with Adamawa,Taraba etc
With my summation,I think Igbos are by far the most populous tribe in Nigeria.

why don't you say the whole of Nigeria is Igbos... Una born reach Hausa people?

What do you expect?

madridguy:
A very accurate and perfect survey.

I hope by the time the FG is ready to do the proper census we won't have any region opposing it.

Meanwhile, I'm laughing at some people trying to fault the stats, no how the South can come near the North in numbers.

Check around and see their governors, the number of their wives, and children and go out there to interview an average northerners, a man of below 30 years old is already with over 5 children.

I thank God I have see someone who spoke my mind.
This is the fact some Nigerians don't want to accept.

jmoore:
Population of Israel is 9.5 million.

The population of India is 1 billion plus.
That of china is also 1 billion plus.

DaddyJapan:
It will help if you attend to the issue at hand with #Facts and not anecdotes sourced from your travelogue.

In 2023, India - with a population of 1.3+ billion - recorded around 23 million births (according to Unicef).
Yet we know Nigeria issued 10 million birth certificates the next year!

Given these incontrovertible facts, what inference do you draw?

Have you look at the incidents of child marriages in the North? (I was involved in advocacy geared to instituting the Child Rigts Act, so I know what I am talking about). Do you even realise 7 million young Nigerians seek university admission every year?

Point of correction, it's not up to 7 millions admission seekers but 2 millions.

pasol4real:

For your info igbos are more populated than Yorubas in Lagos , igbos are also the most populated in Abuja....
IGBOS are also the second most populated tribe in every none igbo state in Nigeria

Let's assume Ur analogy is very correct. The real question is, wat are they doing in those places?
2. Can't they actualise whatever it is they want on their own home soil?

Shimbo96:

Making wild and unverified claims comes naturally for those guys. It is second nature to them meaning there is no allowance for facts and reality in their thinking.

Dronedude:
Lol, SE dey catch cruise the ibos are everywhere even making up the high population in NW.

if them wan share national cake and cut small give south east no cry oo, cos na money dem use take care of igbos escaping to other region and overpopulation the place

In a digital world, some people are still making rough estimates. And some so called graduates are commending it, this goes to show the level of deterioration in our educational system.

Why is Nigeria afraid of conducting a biometric census with states of origin ?

No developed nation in the world will take Nigeria serious without a proper record system. Nigeria is lagging behind all because of hate for the Igbos. Untill that hatred is taken away and all other tribes show love to the igbos, Nigeria will not work well.

How can a man fight his blessing and be blessed, no way... Igbos are God's blessings to Africa. Take it or leave it.

Before you and other Igbophobics in Lagos....only in Lagos oo....started this new Igbophobia in 2015 because of Tinubu, I thought all of you used to say that the Hausa-Fulani hegemonist have been manipulating Population figures;

You used to say that the departing colonialists gave them power before leaving...Which is why they have been controlling the levers of power in Nigeria since independence.

Has it Changed?

Is your mind now telling you that it's Igbos that have been in Power and not the Hausa-Fulani?

Your mind is now telling you that Igbos are using their Political Power to manipulate population result; it didn't tell you that 'till date,starting from over 60 yrs ago,Igbos have never held political power?

#FreeStuffNg,the rate at which you dissipate spiritual energy hating at these people,they must have committed a Crime on you which you can't forgive.

What's the crime? Let's help bring them to Justice for you.

Please tell

OVB123:
Point of correction, it's not up to 7 millions admission seekers but 2 millions.

You absolutely right. What I meant to say is that, 700,000 students are admitted annually.

Sapiosexuality:
But what we ought to think here is, if that's really true how come these same Igbos who migrated to vote against APC in the presidential election didn't vote against APC in the gubernatorial? Does it really make sense? Or make it make sense.

Makes a lot of sense. How ?
Unfortunately for the Ibos, they didn't know how to manage a victory naturedly being always too emotional, brash and erratic
Rather, they immediately and erroneously assumed only Ibos voted for Obi and consequently began to claim the glory and thought they could repeat the same feat in the gubernatorial elections.

Unfortunately for them, this attitude of theirs alienated all the Yoruba and Christians to transfer their votes to
Sanwo-Olu. You may not believe this, but Yoruba were not happy with Sanwo-Olu and Tinubu and wanted to vote
against the APC but switched to the latter 0arry consequent upon the Ibos attitude.

An objective observer of Nigeria's politics will admit that generally, the
Yoruba do not vote on tribal sentiments or emotion but the 2023 experience converted many to conservatism and will never change again.

DeOTR:
Make it 95%. Yorubas are 2% while the rest of the tribes are 3%. Shebi you forget say we have about 5 other Yoruba states around Lagos and Kwara State which is 60% with Yorubas having second largest population in Kogi? You think ibos are the only ones that love to travel to Lagos? You people are too unreasonable. Even if you empty the whole of South East into Lagos, Igbo population can not be high than Yoruba. That's a fact.

😂😂😂very unreasonable clowns indeed….I don’t know the agenda they are trying to push, but we will always be 10 steps ahead of them, that’s why they already crying about the renaming of a street in yorubaland.

MrPresident1:
Is like South east people are not joiking enough

President Tinubu need to declare an emergency on joiking in the Southeast. Contraceptives must be banned in the east!

Generally, Nigerians need to be joikng more

FYI, SE has the highest birth rate in the South, even higher than some parts of the North.
Their low population has to do with emigration from their region.

Dronedude:
Lol, SE dey catch cruise the ibos are everywhere even making up the high population in NW.

Igbos

These figures are highly inflated.

After the presidential election, those people were everywhere on social media boasting and making noise that they would ensure they remove Sanwo-Olu and install half-Igboman, Chinedu Rhodes Vivour as governor. Some of them were even saying that their domination had started, that after CRV finishes his 2 terms it would be the turn of a full-blooded igboman to become governor of Lagos state. Already counting their chicks before they're hatched.
That's why they always suffer shattered dreams and aborted missions.

There are two main factors that normally define people - brain
and brawn.
The former group always think deeply before they talk or act. They are calculative, diligent and meticulous. They are endowed with native intelligence with which they easily defeat people of the latter category. "Ogbon ju agbara lo". That is the Yoruba for you. Less noise more of action.

The latter group are always, brash, irrational with erratic behaviour like wild animals. They do virtually everything under emotional spell - they act before they think. They grow up physically faster but mentally slower,
You know them, I don't have to tell you.

Thiṣ attitude of theirs - being boastful, rash, uncouth, uñcultured, disrespectful, a lack of ɗecorum añd deriding their hosts led to the 1966 pogrom in the north.
It led to their
insistence to go to war.
Çhief Awolowo offered brain and wisdom to them but rejected it for brawn.

You can easily notice them repeating the same pattern in the SW and it will go on like that until they meet their second Waterloo.
They never learn from history. With what they suffered in Port Harcourt, you wouldn't have expected them to build houses like birds in other people's land but no
The Yoruba will never do that.
