Now look at the map and you will see that Niger state is virtually the size of the entire SW but who talk or foams in the mouth about that?! Nobody does...it's a none issue!!!!
But these abomination keep foaming in their mouths over nothing every day and nite!!!!

Nigeria without these people would've been ok.

We keep asking,what are these people sophisticated in?
What are they sophisticated at?!!

All SE oil no reach even Lagos State oil make we never talk of Ondo oil.
Moreover oil is basically for our international currency,the main thing that make SE breath and exist is the FAAC majorly from other than oil.
No SW,Igboland SE is dead.
Igbo people are all over the country and world...they do business everywhere,they buy land in choice areas and marry off your best women. While they make all the money,losers cry everywhere, jealousy, envy 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Continue chasing your danfo and owomida upandan but look road o grin

That's a known fact now. The entire south east region is just slightly bigger than Oyo state
then if we are to go by your warped analogy, Russia should be 500 countries since they have the largest landmass in the world.

Niger and Kano states combined is bigger than the whole south West states. So therefore, we should create like 10 states from Niger and Kano since they are very big.

The landmass of isreal is smaller than the entire south East, yet isreal is a country.

Landmass is not the only factor that necessitates state creation.

Try dey update your mind.

Na why I dey sometimes laugh some of them whenever they claimed their region is the most developed in Nigeria, with what land mass? South East is so tiny
Is niger state not bigger than the entire 6 states of SW? Is niger state more developed than Lagos? Go school you say no! Na owomida after secondary school

isreal is smaller than the southeast, yet more develop. Landmass is not a necessary advantage in 21st century. A smaller country by landmass can be more useful than a country with large landmass.

Niger state is also bigger than 6 SW states put together.
u dey mind am. So Niger should be divided into 10 states. Nigerians just reason primitively. Russia should as well be divided into 20 countries since their landmass is bigger than the whole Western Europe

But they don't generate enough money.
Ibadan generates more more than 5 South East states put together.

Niger State is big in Size yeah..
But Ibadan generates more money than Niger states plus all south east states put together..

This is why Ibadan deserve to be given a state.

Nigeria is bigger than the UK in both land area and population. Nigeria's land area is nearly four times larger than the UK's, and its population is over three times larger. And we're still spending millions just to enter UK.

Go and see the size difference between Israel and the Arabian countries. But Israel can defeat all of them within 6 days. Igbos are the Israel of Africa. Our own is money, not military.

You want to blame this on us now?
Yes....

Take what's happening in Ghana...
Take what's happening in lagos...
Take what's happening in Edo
Take what's happening in rivers with the ikwerre people...

What's common with all of these people?? The igbo people...

U either here.... igbo King in Ghana...

Or the igbos developed lagos
Or some of the people in edo and ikwerre are igbos

When you make statements like these especially on social media which everyone now have access to.... U put them on a defensive mode all of a sudden.... Which really makes no sense....

If you respect the sovereignty of others from the onset... I don't think anyone will direct their attacks on the igbos...
Na only igbo dey Nigeria... How come they are the ones everyone is fighting against??
Today they have problem with the Edo people..
Tomorrow it's the yoruba
Next tomorrow it's the hausa
The other day it's fulani
Next it's Ghana

How many people una dey get problems withhuh

Don't u think u guys are doing something wrong??

Niger state is bigger than south West, may we should as well merge entire south west to one state

Sharp eyes with dull brain won't know that IGR is fuel that powers the engine of a GDP in sane clime, enough of feeding bottle government. Develop your state with what you generate and money generated from SW should be kept in SW, if SE likes it can hang to GDP and let see how it will survive without FAAC.

Instead of state creation, tell your leader to clamour for abolition of FAAC. Let's see how leeches states will survive
You say "Clamor for abolition of FAAC"? South East weh dey look for outright disintegration, you dey talk of FAAC.

Wait till we get a fully functioning and viable seaport in Calabar, Warri or PH and see if they little IGR you see in Lagos and Ogun won't vanish.

You talk of feeding bottle govt? Remind me again why Awolowo had to work with Gowon just to prevent Biafra breakaway. I laugh in Chinese grin

Stop living in the past, In 2025, nobody will go build you a seaport, let your state build one if so desired or create a conducive environment to attract investors to build one for you, Lagos built her own, Ogun state own is in the pipeline.

Even Arewa has come to the realization and the are now pushing for restructuring, if you like wait for FG to come and build your bedroom for you.

Cancel FAAC today and let every state inherit his assets and liabilities

Am sure this post is meant for dropout Obidient,

Which secession are you talking about, check the thread here. In Nairaland when Buhari called MNK to give him the 5 SE region, checkout the response of SS leaders and your leader who cursed MNK and pledge support for Nigeria.

It seems you don't know what's going on around you, SM has wrecked the consciousness of many young people

Wait is it the same Ibadan that we all know that the lawmaker is talking about or e get another one?

Ibadan is the biggest slum in West Africa. Fact!

Big deal!

Quality over Quantity any day.

Nigeria Area: 925,000 sq.km :: GDP $256 billion
Switzerland Area: 41,250 sq.km :: GDP $ 940 billion
Israel Area: 21,640 sq.km. :: GDP $540 billion
Singapore Area: 736 sq.km :: GDP $547 billion

Does size really matter?
N1000 bill is bigger in size than $100 bill but the latter is N150,000 equivalent.

Abuja: 275 sq.km
Lagos Area: 3345 sq.km
Oyo : 28,454 sq.km

Where would you rather live?

Ignorance is a disease. Ignorance borne out unwillingness to relearn is cancerous. A little research would have shown that Abia State, the smallest of the south east states, is bigger than Ibandan

States are not allowed to build seaport, international airports(just local), and interstate railways in nigeria. Most nigerians don't know this, however its not your fault
