Kinda love the way Easterners are rather concerned about the gap on themselves & the exigencies in closing dem gaps immediately Wow!

Kudos Guz!

not when your champion is a certificate forger

Guy, he's referring to closing the gap in SE...

ChiefOloye:
Igbos will applaud this as being accurate now, but let South West be No 1. on the list, like that of internally generated revenue data, they will dispute it and call it agbadorians or gbegiri data.

Anything from Statisense is not reliable.

bewla:
Then japa or move to Ghana

Live Nigeria alone

If everybody jakpa, Na only you go stay for Naija ??

muykem:
I don't understand. You are giving percentage without figure. This is very wrong and misleading eg a region with 85% of 10m has done more than 90% of 2m.

SouthEasterners may not be taking voting seriously results voter apathy but the region is not the least populated in Nigeria.

Then the land is green for it will be thee best country without mugus , mafia, politicians, rog student union, agberos,ritualist turn yahoo,fake pastors and imams, stupid lazy landlord sons and daughters

And most of all no bandits and terrorists

And lastly no Nairaland and fake arm force


I will rule and enjoy as I like

Your argument is relative to population but we're talking about effectiveness. Factors like this are base on effectiveness

Guyman02:
Abia will achieve 99% soon because it's now an offense not to send your child to school including non indigenes residing in the state, a Task Force goes around between 9am and 2pm looking for children hawking, begging or loitering and their parents are find by the community vigilantes and Chiefs

I think Ebonyi is the weak link here. All South-East Governors need to commit to this 100% target. This should be the basis for re election. I Don see why a Governor should come back to office if they have not performed in very little things, this where Ohaneze should come in and enforce targets

Tallesty1:
God willing, we will close down the 2.3% gap in SE

It is heading towards absolute % .

Which region is now the least populated? The SE is very small and it is very natural for it to be the least populated. The SW and NW are both around triple the population of the SE. Oyo and Ogun alone are about the same population as the SE. All data say the same thing. NIN, voters registration, active sim cards etc

BItt:
Nigeria is not a failed state, it still way better than most African countries.
You just need to travel enough to know Nigeria is somewhat a paradise

You are preaching to the wrong people, Nigeria is not where e suppose dey but we should be grateful. Some of them never leave their state or at most region.

Not to talk of seeing the other African countries they are comparing Nigeria to. They no even get data to watch it free online. No waste your effort

Lol…it’s very obvious that it’s the north that’s tying Nigeria down…southern Nigeria as a country on its own go dey top five countries in Africa

Jamiubond009:
The south east should do more .100 percent or nothing

The number from South East is affected by the non indigens living there. Don't forget that there are northerns in every town and community now. Apart from the children affected by health challenges, no lgbo would stop their children from going to school no matter what.

Yet I have personally seen an Igbo boy around ten year old sent to the west to work by his parents

Really, but what kind of work will he be doing? Anyway, it can happen but very rare. It can only be people from one state in the south east.

Remove Igbo population in Lagos, Ibadan and Ogun let's continue the conversation. Even at that, SE is not small in population. Onitsha alone is bigger than the whole of Ekiti State. So be sure before saying what you have no knowledge of.

Return all Yoruba to Yoruba land before we continue the conversation. You people talk as if it is only Igbos that reside outside their enclave. There is no Nigerian ethnic group that is not scattered across Nigeria. There are probably more Yoruba outside Yoruba land than non Yorubas on Yoruba land so it cancels out. I can post links of university departments in the North where a large percentage of staff are Yoruba. When Christians were killed during the last Jos riots there were more Yoruba killed than Igbos. When there was a census of language spoken at home in US Yoruba was like double Igbo. In Ireland it was like triple. Why do you think it's not like that in Jos, Maiduguri or Kano? Everybody is everywhere. Migration cancels out

According to NIN data, Anambra is like double the population of Ekiti

Anambra together is double the population of Ekiti according to NIN data. If more than half of Anambra resides in Onitsha which is probably correct then your assertion will be correct

NIN is not a good indices for assessing population. So children and young adult that don't have NIN are not part of the population of a State ??

NIN can be used to compare if there is no manipulation in it. Ekiti is less than 1.5 million and Oyo is almost 5 million and their populations will compare like that
