SS has 6 states: Edo, Delta, cross river, Bayelsa, akwa ibom, and Rivers.
Thank you.
Then, SS won't get an additional state while a new state will be carved from the existing SE states.

But to think they will cut SS land and add it to the SE, not gonna happen.

You know you guys live with the Igbos in Nigeria with so much Ignorance that sometimes I wonder if you ever learn, if you still at this point can't see the problem of Nigeria as a problem that is deeply rooted in injustice especially against the Igbos then you have not even known the direction your country is heading yet, you people want Nigeria to progress with so much injustice on some certain people..

look at the trajectory of Nigeria since independence


When will you people learn?
Actually, it is your likes victim mentality (as I don't generalise about an ethnic group) that still amazes me!

Every ethnic group that makes up this nation has claim to some sort of injustice but it is only your likes that carry this victim mentality like some garb of honour and so all our focus should be ONLY on what isn't working YET and every other thing doesn't count! Right?

Hmm...

When will your likes learn?

Common sense should tell you, extremists and terrorists give births to kids with the cursed bloodline and indoctrination, bigots give birth to kids and indoctrinated them with hate, almajiris give birth to numerous kids, hungry and indoctrinated they are easy recruits for terrorists, with time the number of terrorists and criminals increase...hence we need new approach, which is state police, for the simple reason that vigilantes are not issued automatic weapons, automatic AK 47 is required to confront terrorists.

Even an average man should understand this.
And what has Tinubu done to stop all these things you mentioned up since his over 2 years in office?

True federalism dictates and expect every state to be able to take care of itself. What lazy youths like you should be pushing for is for us to go back to true federalism, regionalism which was practiced, which brought about strength of states, groundnut and cocoa pyramids etc...true federalism, full resources control, so state can get the best off their resources and become efficient, since they won't be spoon fed anymore...also state laws to protect our individual states culture, spirituality and heritage, instead of this slave mentality being spread to unborn seeds. We had a strong heritage and history before slave era, before the two main religions captured our souls and minds, before colonialism we had a strong history of Egyptian history, Benin history, Ghana history, Timbuktu etc...we need to go back to regionalism, and true federalism.

You say federal police is corrupt, start your own police you can't, lazy People.

Deveropers for a reason. The funny thing is that educated or illiterate, deveropers always have this warped way of reasoning. I understand why obi said he regularly takes advice from a mad man.
Do you know beyond your village, Asaba is just a town, is it the summit flyover or ogbogologo was he referring to as development? A town once it rains you won't see road surface again no drainage. I see where they're comparing it to Onitsha, only security and in terms of serene and quiet environment and as a state capital, apart from these it's no where near Onitsha in terms of development. It's even some businesses and industries from across Onitsha that made Asaba booming, in those days the Iweka movie producers chose Asaba for close proximity over Enugu, I know when Asaba was just like village before the influx of people across the naija due to overpopulation in Onitsha. Delta government are not doing much there
Re: Delta Govt Official Asks Lady Saying Igbos Developed Asaba A Question by SpaceTour: 1:35pm On Sep 04, 2025
Asaba is just a suburb of Onitsha. Onitsha is the main city while Asaba is just like its suburb.

There is no parallel this is a silly example
Lagos and Ogun are states

Asaba and Onitsha are towns

Is Onitsha anything without Lagos?
Lagos is a captive market for Ogun............Onitsha is a captive market for asaba! If you cannot understand the analogy, sorry you cannot be helped! Just put on your thinking cap sir!

Shut up, You think the title commander in chief of the armed forces is for decoration?

There is only one in Nigeria and that is Tinubu, he is commander in chief of all the armed in Nigeria no governor holds that title,

You are very ignorant about the laws of Nigeria mixed with so much arrogance, no state can create police under the present constitution, Tinubu has failed on his duties, so you are telling me without state police and true federalism is why Tinubu is failing and will keep failing ?


if your answer is yes


That means he is not a dynamic leader and lacks multi dimensional approach in solving problems..

😂😂otondo, you still can’t see your folly? It’s only fair we compare oyo state with your 5plot of unproductive region in term of landmass. Just imagine oyo state being governed by 5 states governors grin the trajectory will be far different from what we have now, yet your tiny region can’t even measure with oyo state governed by just one governor😂😂😂nwokem, you should hide your face in shame and not chest beating 😂😂😂
Lol you guys have no development that goes beyond government money. Development is not claiming Lagos that was capital of Nigeria for 80 years, or claiming Ibadan that was capital of the Western Region before independence. Show us one single place you developed that was never capital of anywhere, and so didn't attract government money

There Onitsha, the city with the most story buildings after Lagos. Aba is now competing with Onitsha in whi will have more story buildings. Onitsha has never been capital of anywhere, Aba has never been capital of anywhere

Where have you people got that has never been capital of anywhere?

First of all stop saying Lagos
Lagos state is different from Lagos City

Ogun is a state like Lagos State

Onitsha is a small town in Anambra
Stop making inappropriate comparisons

Second stop throwing words around in an attempt to sound intelligent

What do you mean by CAPTIVE

It has no meaning

How is Onitsha a captive market for Asaba ? What does that mean?
You have not communicated anything


Why has Onitsha not impacted Awka in Anambra state in the same way
Why are Ndi Anambra so focused on developing Asaba than Awka or Nnewi
Why not develop Enugu or Abakaliki that were one inside Anambra
You are not making sense

Storey building proves nothing other than you have land poverty

What is the source of water? How do they dispose sewage and waste

They live like pigs in Onitsha and Aba the two dirtiest places on earth
Those buildings are stinking
Now that we are in rainy season is the dirtiest time in Aba
Anyone who has ever been there knows this
It is truly filthy

Thats answers it all. Outside Lagos that was capital of Nigeria, and Ibadan that was capital of the Western Region, you people cannot point to anywhere you developed without it being a capital. Collecting government money is not development

When you hold position as a leader you try as much as possible to behave better than your followers, the same official is busy measuring d1ck of Delta state with Lagos state, you won't see it as insult from his tribe because he is not Igbo, if he was an Igbo man you would have started blaming the whole tribe...

Does his talk in this thread sound professional as a government official? Doesn't it tell you that his response to the girl was not professional as a government official?

You people sha just find anything to use to fight Igbos...

That's why the Asaba man no gree for her. At all, at all.
That is why no tribes in Nigeria want them even the ruler of Asaba don't want to have anything doing with them

Brendaniel:
And those that supported Buhari for 8 years and rewarded Tinubu by supporting him for his role in supporting Buhari to destroy Nigeria will now be called what?



The bigger question people like you should be asking is why a whole state government is agitated about an unknown person's tweet, terrorists are throwing party with threats on Tik Tok and the government isn't concerned, a lady tweets her own opinion without threats but they are agitated and you people are here t o promote it.

For those who have been mentioning me

The girl never mentioned any state in the first place not even tribe, go back and read it and see, she was specific with just 2 cities that are close in proximity but the SSA saw it to drag the whole state for comparison and Yorubas decided to drag the whole tribe...
They are letting Igbo to know that they are watching you, you will wake up one day and find yourselves across the bridge.

You are very correct. Asaba is a village compare to Onitsha. Onitsha is the economic capital of Igboland. Onitsha has quiet serene neighborhoods as much as busy highbrow areas.

Ibadan is 85 times the size of Onitsha
