Since they want to join, I hope foolish Nigerian government will now allow people clamouring to leave to go their way

omenka:
Easier said than done.

Nevertheless, Congratulations to Lagos in advance. And bigger congrats to Oduduwa Republic when it eventually comes to fruition.

princemillla:
Not sure u will need passport to acce the state unless it’s one of the clause reached

Juliusmalema:
Welcome development.

We have been advocating for such since but before they Join those that wants to leave will be allow to leave so that their will be space for them to join.

Niger republic is already part of Nigeria now and Benin republic willing to join....they should wait so that those that wants out will leave before they can join and be fully integrated back with their fellow Yorubas in Nigeria.

BigDawsNet:
Actually I'm not saying you will need one like compulsory

You know some people love to carry diff country passport...just applying because you have the right to apply because of the act of Union to become one nation among Nigeria and Benin


Just like

British citizens residing in Scotland will also get the nationality if they are residing in Scotland at the time of independence.

Oh I got ur point now, still if the move is true. It will be part of discussion and modalities to be set in

Racoon:
Wait and see how Niger Republic will also join and then annex Nigeria as its own territory.Everybody under this Buhari-led APC government is incredibly stupid and irresponsible.See how they violate the sovereignty of Nigeria @ will with senseless statements and actions

Mikecold:
The same people who approved a railway to Niger, gave light to Niger and open boarders to them would do it if they wish.

It's not about the stupidity of how it sounds, it is about doing what gives north edge

Misterone:
tribalism has eating deeply into this one's soul. Sorry.

Benin Republic Ready To Be Nigeria’s ‘37th State’ – Minister


The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, said the President of Benin Republic, Patrice Talon, had expressed readiness for his country to be part of Nigeria.

Onyeama, who stated this shortly after a close door meeting with Beninoise Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, Aurélien Agbenonci, said the Beninoise president gave the offer when he visited President Muhammadu Buhari, a few weeks back.

“The President of Benin said as far as they are concerned, they want (not just saying it like that) but in reality, Benin should be the 37th state of Nigeria,” he said.

“We should really be one. They charged us to come together at ministerial level, to work out a framework for a sustainable relationship.”

Onyeama said, at the visit, both presidents discussed agreements between the two countries on how to put the issue of smuggling to an end, once and for all, as a follow up to the presidents’ meeting.

Lol bro this funny, those that want to leave .
There is already space for them, they are coming with their own land except you mean resources which they lack

SoulMus:
The problem with this offer is Niger Republic might want to join as well, sadly our resources can't cater for too many heads
