These people are so funny. Land mass means nothing in terms of economic conditions

England is 132km which is less than Niger and Borno states

Can you compare those comatose states with England?

Most of those land mass in the north are empty espanse of lands. You can drive for hours without seeing a single habitat

Gracealone:
He remembered to remove Hausa Speaking people of Borgu/Kainji from Kwara and joined them with Niger while leaving entirely-different Christian southern Kaduna people to join them with Plateau State. GMB is just building on the foundation of IBB with his nepotism.

yea, ure right sir ..my pop serve as a military medical personnel in new-busa kainji, wen it was still in kwara state...he remove d Dam"portion of jebba and add it to Niger state..d guy no try at all....

bigfish3k:

IT WILL AMAZE YOU THAT THE LARGEST STATE IN TERMS OF LAND MAST DOESN'T NOT EVEN MAKE TOP TEN WHY THE SMALLEST STATE LAGOS IS THE SECOND LARGEST IN POPULATION.
The reason for acquisition of major land mast to most of northern region were as a result of the past dictatorship government which was majorly dominated by northern military.

Farki:


You have started with this nonsense again. All the roads that Ambode built in Epe and Oshodi before they were abandoned by his successor what about them?

Don't mind the fools with their lies. See who financed the much talked about Ikorodu road

land should be cheap in niger state then. one day i wud purchase 20000acres there

This is the statistical table of all 36 states ranked in terms of population between 2006 and 2016. And it will shocked you that only a kano was above Lagos.

FrLukas:


Yup. But couldn't develop Anambra, Enugu, Abia, Imo and Ebonyi.

Ndi developers.

Yes because we lost a war the yorubas and hausas connived and put restrictions on the level we can develop. That is why we want out

MetaPhysical:


Dont worry, I have a thread coming up to demistify your FG footprint in Lagos.

I will show you that LCC, Lagos City Council was the developer of Lagos, not FG.

...and I will list for you achievements of LCC.

Be ready to list FG achievements in Lagos.

Don't forget this bro

I know this bigot Joe Igbokwe is only trying to send a wrong signal and mock a certain region that gave name to him

muykem:
They need to merge south east states to two, they are too small for a state.

The States with large land mass, how viable are they? If the FG fails to share federal allocations today, can they survive?

[s][/s]

bigfish3k:

Stop making mouth
Yorubas are too afraid of staying without igbos [s][/s]

Trash!!! We don't even share land and sea borders with igboland., heck, before Nigeria became a country we didn't have contact with you whatsoever, we never knew who you were. And by the time Nigeria cease to exist we wouldn't even have anything whatsoever to do with you.

muykem:
They need to merge south east states to two, they are too small for a state.

Awon warey have you asked about the size of Belgium which is far ahead of your so called country Nigeria both in economy prowess and human development.

Are you high or what? How is England 132km?

Niger State 76,363KM² still remain one of the useless state in North

bigfish3k:

Lol.

You lost a war and then in the same narrative you tell us that after losing the war you went and developed someone else's homeland?

I have given up on you lots trying to make sense.

You lost a war and came to the West where there was already development.

Stop fooling yourselves.

We can all see that land mass isn't what makes a country economically viable. For example,Holland is a country with less population compared to Lagos state with a land mass equal that of Taraba state, yet they are the largest manufacturer of aeroplane in the world and is one of the highest income countries in the entire European Union.

As big as the so called north claimed to be,I have never heard that we export food and cattle to other countries of the world yet they have mass land with the highest/greatest number of unproductive population in the world.

Lagos is the Hong-kong of Africa,while anambra is the entrepreneur/propreneur capital of Africa with the highest number of millionaires. These are the two microcosm of Nigeria.

zz

Gracchus:
Are you high or what? How is England 132km?

That's how they distort facts.

If the five southeast states occupied the top of that list you can imagine how this thread would have turned out.

MetaPhysical:


...your response would get good support if it were true that the five states, or the region in itself, is a respectable economic performer.

You must find some other index with which to brand SE, land and economy ranking work against you. Lagos state is a tiny state but economic giant. The whole SW region is the top income earner for Nigeria and also the top culturally diverse society, and in land size the region is the biggest in the South.

So Ibos need to define new brandings, economic or geographic does not work well in your favour.

What are we really dragging for in the South for goodness sake?
The person you quoted was answering someone that said the whole SE be merged into two states because of their size, and he rightly answered the guy that it’s not about the size as Lagos is doing pretty well even though it’s the smallest state in the country. It’s not about size but economic viability of a state.
But you just had to turn the whole thing to a d1ck measuring contest, Why?
Who did us this thing in the South that we cannot get along for our own development and wellbeing?
SS never agrees with SE, SE never agrees with SW and the cycle goes on for years!!!
Are we not tired? This is why we have been under Northern rule for years in this country because Southerners never agree with themselves. Na our over sabi dey kill us, tufiakwa!

I am even of the opinion that more states be created in the South so the development could go deeper since the powers that be don’t want any group to break out.

FrLukas:


Lol.

You lost a war and then in the same narrative you tell us that after losing the war you went and developed someone else's homeland?

I have given up on you lots trying to make sense.

You lost a war and came to the West where there was already development.

Stop fooling yourselves.

Yes,
That was the plan for us to bring our developmental strives to your region and it worked. That's why you see yorubas getting angry at the mention of Biafra

We are discussing intellectually I would appreciate you stop using degrading words. It's uncalled for

Nigeria 36 state ranked in terms of GDP and per capital income. It will shocked you that the revenue of Lagos state alone is enough to feed the whole of Northern region minus kano. The combination of the Southerners, East and West are the driving force of this nation. And one barbarians is talking about land mast in the northern states.
The land that can't be fertile without manure and fertilizer . The land that was majorly dominated by hills. Bullshit

Unproductive unity of nigeria is your sole aim and achievement.

I really appreciate what you have done in organising these statistics, I will just like if possible for you to add the population in front of each state it will be a good reference. Thanks again]

EVILFOREST:

The entire NIGERIAN Nation which you claim is BIG is SMALL my Brother.
CALIFORNIA State in the United states is Half the size of the entire Nigerian Federation.
TEXAS is 2/3rd the size of the entire Nigeria.
ALASKA is bigger than Nigeria+Benin+Togo+Ghana all put together.
These are just 3 STATES ooooo
Yet our Population in Nigeria is chasing that of the United States with the speed of Light.
That's the only DEVELOPMENT we are good at

No doubt the entire SOUTHEAST is small but it's 2 times bigger than Jamaica. .
QUESTION of the DAY:
Now if it's really small, why does the Nigerian Government find it difficult ceding such a small portion to self actualisation with territorial integrity, if they could easily cede a small Bakassi..?

Bakassi did not belong to Nigeria in the first place

Crude oil is the force behind all these idiotic shenanigans in Nigeria. And I repeat until Nigeria disintegrates into nation states with fierce battles to determine who dies or lives, some fools will continue to dwell in stupidity.

Wow, Akwa Ibom is the second highest GDP in Nigeria.. That lovely no wonder illaumoh said its with the attachment below

Lamasta:
Land mass is one economic mass is another...

But Niger State is enough to stand as a country with a huge land mass

Lagos state has the least land mass but is enough to sponsor the whole Nigeria budget as small as it is the billions or trillions coming out from there will develop the whole land mass of all Nigeria if there is no corruption.

Don't deceive urself, Nigeria is a poor country including lagos state.
