Because Bayelsa was politically marginalized you think it's small.
Bayelsa with 8 LGAs is bigger than Imo and Anambra States put together and these two have 48 LGAs.
If Bayelsa rig population figure in 8 LGA Headquarters these two will rig in 48 LGA headquarters for population figures are being rigged for political.


Ijaw our past, present and future.

I'm talking of entire area per square km²
Meanwhile google map will help you to know that water is less than 8 percent of Bayelsa area.

Due to the kind of riverine and swampy terrain of Bayelsa, to do one road in Bayelsa, that money can do more than 5 in other States.

But why not try to focus ONLY on the actual land where humans can dwell and leave the areas that rightfully belong to the poor innocent fishes undecided

The rivers are less than 8 percent of Bayelsa total area.
Try go check Google map if you can't go round Bayelsa.

you have only two express roads in bayelsa for Gods sake - the one that crosses NNS SOROH and the other one where your govenment house is - which is a new construct by the way

TWO EXPRESS ROADS IN A SO-CALLED CITY

Is that why your son was President for 6 years and he couldn't get his own people water to drink?

Look at what Tinubu is doing for Lagos and compare it to GEJ and you will agree that you are naturally incapable of good leadership.

Ogbeni educate yourself, Landmass doesn't determine the number of LGA in a state. Niger state has a total land mass 76,363 km² (highest in Nigeria) but has just 25 LGA's.

Even with the meagre population of BY VS the huge monthly federal allocations the state still remains one of the most backwards states in South South. Truth be told Rivers state and Delta state suppose share Bayelsa state between themselves because their politicians just dey waste the state money anyhow.

This OP should stop inhaling what he is inhaling, it isn't doing him any good. A state that produced a vice president and president has been marginalized according to him, what about the state that hasn't produced any?😏

If the size of your state is not contributing positively to its economy, please shove it into your pocket and stop disturbing our peace. Size alone means nothing.

Look at Israel and Oman. As small as they are, their economies are doing very well. Even Cape Verde, with a population of less than 500,000, has a more stable economy than Bayelsa.

What matters is not the size of a state but how well its resources are managed and how productive the economy is.
