Hmmmmm2024:
And what is the big for nothing local government contributing to the growth of Nigeria ?

IrantiOlorun:
Governor Bago is talking too much recently and needs to watch what he says.

CodeTemplarr:
What are they producing with the 11,000 hectares? Always using money for religion and looking for new ways to collect more money. What are they producing? If they say food, how cone they also have the tag of hunger prone region? If what they lack to utilize the land is funds, why prioritize religion above productivity?
At the end, it is matter of priority for both the masses and the leaders in that region. Leader tell obvious lies for peraonal reasons and the followers believe it too for personal reasons.

Passionate888:

wellmax:
Borgu has historically been known as a kingdom stretching across present-day Nigeria and the Benin Republic.

Incoherent report.

You yourself stated the above but without seeking clarification have hurriedly concluded that the governors statement is false.

The governor is right as he referred to the entire Borgia kingdom

Does it matter?

Luxembourg is only 2586 sq.km
Vatican is only 0.49 sq.km
Israel is only about 20,770 sq.km
Whereas Nigeria is about 360,000 sq.km

Which of these countries do their citizens want to run away from? If only size equates to prosperity. Quality over quantity any day.

Kogi and Niger States are big. Can you name anything major coming out of these two States to support the Nigerian economy? Lagos State is 1178 sq.km compared to Niger's 76,000 sq.km but the latter is nothing compared to Lagos.

But niger state is bigger than the entire south east.
Maybe claiming a Local government area is too much, but south east is too tiny.
A local government in niger state is d size of some states in biafra land

MICHEALADEX:
So check Niger state as a whole vs South east as give us the answer

EminiOba:
How can you even compare a forest, very retrogressive, undeveloped Niger State to the whole South East, very nonsense. I went there recently for NYSC. Just forest everywhere.

gidgiddy:
The entire population of Niger State as whole is about half the population of Anambra

So make we hear word

Brilliancepower:
Kontagora alone is the size of 3 states. I don't know why IBB left that state the way it is. To be candid, Niger State is massive!!!
