richmond500:Hope you understand what you're saying. There's never a thing like east-east, south-south for whatever reason. You only have coordinates of a point(south) with other points (north, west, east) Example: when you want to geographically describe a region as north north, it doesn't stand alone; it must have coordinates NNEast or NNwest. For political reasons: You can present the region by describing the region Example Midwest, mid east So the appropriate word for a political region of the so called 'South south' , should be farsouth. 'North north' should be far-north 'East east' should be mid east or extreme east #Descriptive |

Broveens42:hope u understand the difference between geopolitical (which is administrated, cultural and political grouping) and normal geography which is based on longitude, latitude, mountains etc? Abi u just decide to ignore the fact that one deals with administrative while the other deals with landscape |

Broveens42:there is nothing like the south south .. edo and delta state are in country of Nigeria different from east South. So pdp was wrong to label them south south. Someone from edo and delta state does not need permit to travel to ibadan. But someone from south east need permission. That why goodluck jonathan to a neutral ground accra to hold his meet. Abuja and lagos are neutral ground nigeria dont need permit. |

richmond500:That's exactly what I'm saying. Geopolitical zones are presented in the descriptive form: Midwest(middle region closer to the east) Mideast( middle region closer to the west) If an eastern region is more east than the other, you use the descriptive form "extreme" Extreme-east. South south is tautology |

Broveens42:is a tautology. |

Broveens42:Geopolitical zones is not bound by any strict international naming rules. A country can adopt a name depending on politics, administrative, cultural etc. Nigeria hasn't made any mistake by chosing south south as geo political zone |

math2001:it is not tautology. Nothing makes it tautology. |

richmond500:Can you give reasons why it's not a tautology? I believe you went through a decent school and should know better. We are not even talking about geography; ie, whether the SS is not properly interpreted in geography, rather, The people who named south south, had in mind, the farthest part of the south, but decided to go for SS for lack of proper education |

Broveens42:It is educationally pernicious that you asked me if I went through decent school and still end up saying South south is tautology. There is no universally accepted naming rules when it comes to geo-political zone. South south, North north, south of delta, Northern midwest, isle of south. They are all correct and however a country likes, they can name theirs. It is never tautology because it is just for administrative, cultural and social purpose and not bound by any rule. It's like a dialect for a particular people, nobody can come tell you that ur dialect is not correct, that's a fibble minded fellow |
