New state?
That means we will now have an extra spot for another corrupt governor to loot funds and trample on the masses?

This would almost landlock old Akwa Ibom and deprive her of up to 95percent of her current offshore oil derivation.
Hmm!
Is this same as the proposed Oil Rivers state. I didn't think Oro nation were part of the proposed Oil Rivers state.
Oil Rivers state was supposed to involve amalgamation of all non Igboid part of current Rivers state and Ibeno/Eastern Obolo.

OP, your source is dodgy.

Who will carve it out?
Who are the people in support of this?
And why Akwa Ibom whereas you have big states like Niger and Cross River?

No, more state to decentralize power

Sir, decentralization is a good thing but we musn't forget that this is Nigeria. Our politicians will only see it as another way to enrich themselves.

A new cabinet will be formed. New buildings and cars for the owners of the new offices. New budget. All these will cost a fortune.

Oil rivers state was proposed specifically for rivers state.

From what I can deduce from the picture above, this one is called Atlantic state. I need to do more research on this.

No. Oil Rivers included Ibeno and Eastern Obolo. It didn't have Oro LGAs.

I think Ogoni want their own state and did not want to be part of oil rivers state . meanwhile I think Oron and Ibeno won't mind getting out of Akwa ibom where they are marginalized to pitch tent with the other minority groups from rivers state .
